2 | Templates are located in the Conf directory, while the tools executables for\r | |

3 | Microsoft Windows 32-bit Operating Systems are located in the Bin\Win32 directory, other \r |

8 | === Windows/Visual Studio Notes ===\r |
9 | \r | |
10 | To build the BaseTools, you should run the standard vsvars32.bat script.\r | |
11 | \r | |
12 | In addition to this, you should set the following environment variables:\r | |
13 | \r | |
14 | * EDK_TOOLS_PATH - Path to the BaseTools sub directory under the edk2 tree\r | |
15 | * BASE_TOOLS_PATH - The directory where the BaseTools source is located.\r | |
16 | (It is the same directory where this README.txt is located.)\r | |
17 | * PYTHON_FREEZER_PATH - Path to where the python freezer tool is installed\r | |
18 | \r | |
19 | After this, you can run the toolsetup.bat file, which is in the same\r | |
20 | directory as this file. It should setup the remainder of the environment,\r | |
21 | and build the tools if necessary.\r | |
22 | \r | |
23 | Please also refer to the 'BuildNotes.txt' file for more information on\r | |
24 | building under Windows.\r | |
25 | \r | |
26 | === Unix-like operating systems ===\r | |
27 | \r | |
28 | To build on Unix-like operating systems, you only need to type 'make' in\r | |
29 | the base directory of the project.\r | |
30 | \r | |
31 | === Ubuntu Notes ===\r | |
32 | \r | |
33 | On Ubuntu, the following command should install all the necessary build\r | |
34 | packages to build all the C BaseTools:\r | |
35 | \r | |
36 | sudo apt-get install build-essentials uuid-dev\r | |
37 | \r | |
38 | === Python sqlite3 module ===\r | |
39 | On Windows, the cx_freeze will not copy the sqlite3.dll to the frozen \r | |
40 | binary directory (the same directory as build.exe and GenFds.exe). \r | |
41 | Please copy it manually from <PythonHome>\DLLs.\r | |
42 | \r | |
43 | The Python distributed with most recent Linux will have sqlite3 module\r | |
44 | built in. If not, please install sqlit3 package separately.\r | |
45 | \r | |
46 | 2. The binary tools will be updated only after passing developer testing.\r | |
07a756b9 | 47 | \r |
48 | Current state of the tools is Proto-Type - not all tool functions have been implemented\r | |
49 | and there may be bugs in these tools. These tools are under constant development at\r | |
50 | this time.\r | |
