How to compile kbi?

Linux

Make sure you have portaudio and gtkmm-4.0 installed and open this project in any IDE that supports CMake.

Windows

1. Install MSYS2

2. Open msys2.exe

Run theses commands to install some packages.

pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake mingw-w64-x86_64-extra-cmake-modules
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-make
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gdb
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-portaudio
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gtkmm4

3. Environment variable

Add ...\mingw64\bin in your MSYS2 directory to the path environment variable.

4. Open CLion (I don't know the exact steps to configure other IDEs)

Set the toolchain to mingw if it is not the default toolchain.

5. Build and run

If it fails, comment out the line with something like WIN32 in the header file where the error occurs.

macOS

1. Install portaudio and gtkmm-4.0 using Homebrew

brew install portaudio gtkmm4

Also, please install pkg-config with Homebrew if you don't have it already

2. Check that directory /usr/local/lib is in CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH

3. Build and run with cmake
