The release version can be downloaded from the Leptonica Github project page. In the "Assets" section you will find source packages compressed with zip or tar&gz. Download the package with the desired compression and decompress it.
With Git you can get the current source code (e.g. with not yet released fixes and improvements, but the code might be unstable so you should not use it in a production environment).
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/DanBloomberg/leptonicaParameter --depth=1 limits code history to the latest commit, so if you want to work with the full code history, skip this parameter.
To build Leptonica you only need a C compiler and GNU Autotools or CMake.
Without other external libraries Leptonica only supports the following image formats: bmp, pnm, spix.
This might be sufficient if you use Leptonica only for image processing and the image is opened by other tools (e.g. Qt).
However, it is a good idea to compile Leptonica with zlib, png, jpeg and TIFF support.
You should also consider installing the following other external imaging libraries (and their dependencies) as needed:
The presence of dependencies is recognized automatically, so you do not need to activate them (but you can deactivate them).
- CMake
- Visual Studio Community 2019 or higher (clang/llvm is also possible)
- Git for Windows
- unzip (part of Git for Windows) or use windows build-in solutions
- tar (part of Git for Windows)
- curl (part of Git for Windows) for downloading files from internet (optional)
All tools must be in the path, so maybe you will need to adapt your system PATH by c:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin;c:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\bin;
Let's use for source code directory C:\Projects\source and for installation directory C:\Projects\win64
mkdir C:\Projects\source
mkdir C:\Projects\win64
SET INSTALL_DIR=C:\Projects\win64
SET PATH=%PATH%;%INSTALL_DIR%\bin;
chdir C:\Projects\sourceInitialize VS (2019) 64bit environment:
call "c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvars64.bat" x64This is not a comprehensive guide to creating external libraries - just use it as an example and customize the creation parameters according to your needs.
Note: The following steps use the latest code of the external libraries - you should use the stable version.
