|
---|
12 | Quick Start
|
---|
13 | -----------
|
---|
14 |
|
---|
15 | Windows:
|
---|
16 | a) Set the PYTHON_FREEZER_PATH to the cx_Freeze installation directory
|
---|
17 | b) Go to the <buildtools_project>/BaseTools and run "toolsetup" script
|
---|
18 |
|
---|
19 | Unix-like:
|
---|
20 | a) make -C <buildtools_project>/BaseTools
|
---|
21 | b) Look over https://edk2.tianocore.org/step-by-step-instructions.html
|
---|
22 | for a helpful step-by-step guide for building 'Hello World' on
|
---|
23 | various operating systems with edk2.
|
---|
24 |
|
---|
25 | Supported build targets (toolsetup)
|
---|
26 | -----------------------------------
|
---|
27 |
|
---|
28 | build(or none) - Incremental Build of all C based tools. This is the default target
|
---|
29 | rebuild - Clean all generated files and directories during build, and rebuild all tools
|
---|
30 |
|
---|

32 | Tools in Python
|
---|
33 | ---------------
|
---|
34 | * Convert Python source to exe file
|
---|
35 |
|
---|
36 | The tools written in Python can be converted into executable program which can
|
---|
37 | be executed without installing a Python interpreter. (Generally it is easier
|
---|
38 | to run the scripts from their source on operating systems other than Windows.)
|
---|
39 |
|
---|
40 | For Windows and Linux, the conversion tool package is called cx_Freeze, its
|
---|
41 | home page is:
|
---|
42 |
|
---|
43 | http://sourceforge.net/projects/cx-freeze/
|
---|
44 |
|
---|
45 | If you have installed cx_Freeze at c:\cx_Freeze-3.0.3. Use following command
|
---|
46 | lines to convert MyBuild.py to MyBuild.exe (note this is an example, there is
|
---|
47 | no MyBuild Python project in the BaseTools\Python tree.
|
---|
48 |
|
---|
49 | set PYTHONPATH=<BaseToolsDirPath>\Source\Python
|
---|
50 | c:\cx_Freeze-3.0.3\FreezePython.exe --include-modules=encodings.cp437,encodings.gbk,encodings.utf_16,encodings.utf_16_le,encodings.utf_8 --install-dir=.\mybuild MyBuild.py
|
---|
51 |
|
---|
52 | The generated .exe (and .dll) files are put in "mybuild" subdirectory.
|
---|
53 |
|
---|
54 | The following is a real example with the BuildTools/trunk/BaseTools project
|
---|
55 | installed in: C:\Work\BaseTools
|
---|
56 |
|
---|
57 |
|
---|
58 | C:\Work\BaseTools\Source\Python> set PYTHONPATH=C:\Work\BaseTools\Source\Python
|
---|
59 | C:\Work\BaseTools\Source\Python> c:\cx_Freeze-3.0.3\FreezePython.exe --include-modules=encodings.cp437,encodings.gbk,encodings.utf_16,encodings.utf_16_le,encodings.utf_8 --install-dir=C:\Work\BaseTools\Bin\Win32 build\build.py
|
---|
60 |
|
---|
61 | ---------------
|
---|
62 | * Execute tools written in Python without conversion
|
---|
63 |
|
---|
64 | Unix-like systems:
|
---|
65 |
|
---|
66 | The edk2/edksetup.sh script will setup everything which is needed to
|
---|
67 | run the scripts from their source.
|
---|
68 |
|
---|
69 | Windows:
|
---|
70 |
|
---|
71 | The tools written in Python can be executed directly from its source directory
|
---|
72 | as long as the Python interpreter (Python 2.5) has been installed. Before the execution,
|
---|
73 | please make sure the environment variable PYTHONPATH is set to
|
---|
74 |
|
---|
75 | <buildtools_project>/BaseTools/Source/Python
|
---|
76 |
|
---|
77 | There're five tools written in Python. The entrance file of each tool is listed
|
---|
78 | below.
|
---|
79 |
|
---|
80 | build <buildtools_project>/BaseTools/Source/Python/build/build.py
