How to build on Windows
As of sysbench 1.0 support for native Windows builds was dropped. It may
be re-introduced in later versions.
Currently, the recommended way to build sysbench on Windows is using
Windows Subsystem for Linux available in Windows 10:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/commandline/wsl/about
You need CMake (download from http://www.cmake.org/) and Visual Studio 2015 or
later.
After installing WSL and getting a bash prompt, following Debian/Ubuntu
build instructions is sufficient.
1.Open Visual Studio command line prompt
2.To build with MySQL support, you will need mysql.h header file and client
library libmysqld.lib
One can get them e.g by downloading and unpacking the "zip" distribution of mysql
- Append directory where libmysql.lib is located to environment variable LIB, e.g
set LIB=%LIB%;G:\mysql-noinstall-6.0.6-alpha-win32\mysql-6.0.6-alpha-win32\lib\opt
- Append directory where mysql.h is located to environment variable INCLUDE, e.g
set INCLUDE=%INCLUDE%;G:\mysql-noinstall-6.0.6-alpha-win32\mysql-6.0.6-alpha-win32\include
3.In the sysbench directory, execute cmake -G "Visual Studio 9 2008"
4.Open sysbench.sln in Explorer and build Relwithdebinfo target.
Alternatively, from the command line, issue
vcbuild /useenv sysbench.sln "Relwithdebinfo|Win32"
Alternatively, one can build and use sysbench 0.5 natively for Windows.
