Shared library
--------------
You will need to download the release shared library for windows from :sfdownloads:`sourceforge <shared_library/Windows>` or the development version of the shared library from :bbbinaries:`the buildbot server <shared_library/Windows>`. If you are on 32-bit windows, download the __cdecl version. For 64-bit, there is only one calling convention.
Available libraries
-------------------
:downloads:`CoolProp.vi`:
Basic Library to get the properties from CoolProp.dll
:download:`CoolProp.llb`:
More advanced library, allowing to compute thermodynamic diagrams, real-time calculation of properties,
measurement processing, etc. There is :download:`additional information <CoolProp & Labview.docx>` available for the use of the llb library

VxWorks

Use pre-built binaries from FirstForge

Instructions from http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/wiki/do/viewPage/projects.c--11_toochain/wiki/BinaryInstall
Debian GNU/Linux (Wheezy/Testing)
Note: Because of minimal dependencies this may work on other Debian based distributions (e.g. Ubuntu). This is, however, experimental.
This currently uses GCC 4.8.0 and Binutils 2.22-8 (default in debian testing).
Add this line to /etc/apt/sources.list to add the repository::
deb http://debian.repo.frc.s3.amazonaws.com jessie main
Add the maintainer key for the repository::
sudo wget -O - http://debian.repo.frc.s3.amazonaws.com/rbmj.gpg.key | apt-key add -
Run the following commands::
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gcc-powerpc-wrs-vxwork
Building your own version of GCC for VxWorks Target

Generic Linux/UNIX
These are the instructions to build from source manually. Note that some lines begin with $ and some begin with #. Lines that start with a $ can be run as a regular user. Lines that start with # must be run as root (on most distributions, just prefix the command with 'sudo').
1: Download all the components::
$ wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gcc/gcc-4.8.2/gcc-4.8.2.tar.bz2
$ wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/binutils/binutils-2.23.1.tar.bz2
$ wget ftp://ftp.ni.com/pub/devzone/tut/updated_vxworks63gccdist.zip
2: Set WIND_BASE::
# echo 'export WIND_BASE=/usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/wind_base' >> /etc/profile
$ source /etc/profile
3: Install the WindRiver headers and development resources::
$ unzip updated_vxworks63gccdist.zip
# mkdir -p /usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/wind_base/target
# mkdir -p /usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/share/ldscripts
# cp -R gccdist/WindRiver/vxworks-6.3/host /usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/wind_base
# cp -R gccdist/WindRiver/vxworks-6.3/target/h/. /usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/sys-include
# ln -fsT /usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/sys-include/wrn/coreip /usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/wind_base/target/h
# sed '/ENTRY(_start)/d' < /usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/wind_base/target/h/tool/gnu/ldscripts/link.OUT > /usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/share/ldscripts/dkm.ld
4: extract binutils and gcc, and the dependency libraries::
$ tar -jxf gcc-4.8.2.tar.bz2
$ tar -jxf binutils-2.23.1.tar.bz2
$ cd gcc-4.8.0
$ ./contrib/download_prerequisites
$ cd ..
5: Build & install binutils::
$ mkdir binutils-build
$ cd binutils-build
$ ../binutils-2.23.1/configure --prefix=/usr --target=powerpc-wrs-vxworks --disable-nls
$ make -j4
# make install
$ cd ..
6: Build & install gcc::
$ mkdir gcc-build
$ cd gcc-build
$ ../gcc-4.8.2/configure \
--prefix=/usr \
--target=powerpc-wrs-vxworks \
--with-gnu-as \
--with-gnu-ld \
--with-headers \
--disable-shared \
--disable-libssp \
--disable-multilib \
--with-float=hard \
--enable-languages=c,c++ \
--enable-libstdcxx \
--enable-threads=vxworks \
--without-gconv \
--disable-libgomp \
--disable-nls \
--disable-libmudflap \
--with-cpu-PPC603 \
--disable-symvers \
CFLAGS_FOR_TARGET='-mstrict-align -mlongcall -g -O2' \
CXXFLAGS_FOR_TARGET='-mstrict-align -mlongcall -g -O2'
$ make -j4
# make install
