RTMPDump - how do I compile source code in Windows?

Ok, I got the source code for rtmpdump but what do I do with it? What do I use to compile it into a program?

Re: RTMPDump - how do I compile source code?

What OS do you want to compile for: Windows, Mac OS, Linux?

The readme of rtmpdump says:

Code:

To compile just type



  $ make rtmpdump

  $ make streams



or to cross compile



 $ make -f MakefileWIN32 rtmpdump 

 $ make -f MakefileARM rtmpdump

 $ make -f MakefileARM streams

So it seems to be pretty easy to compile rtmpdump in Linux. You just need the boost libraries and libssl-dev package.

I believe that in Windows you need cygwin, plus the boost libraries, libssl and gcc/c++ compiler should be available under cygwin.

I saw a blog post about compiling rtmpdump 1.3d with Visual Studio 2008 without cygwin, but it is about an old version an the author wasn't sure he did everything properly.

Please let me know how it goes...

cygwin instructions:

install cygwin
during installation, get the following packages:

Code:

gcc4-core, gcc4-g++, make, zlib, binutils, tar, gzip, bzip2, bash, coreutils, crypt, boost, libboost, boost-devel, openssl, openssl-devel

download rtmpdump source from http://lkcl.net/rtmp/
start the cygwin console, and go into the dir with the source
e.g. cd /cygdrive/c/Documents\ and\ Settings/username/Desktop/
unpack source by typing tar -zxvf rtmpdump-v1.6.tar.gz
then cd rtmpdump-v1.6
use a good text program to edit MakefileWIN32 (not notepad!)
change mingw32-gcc to gcc
change mingw32-g++ to g++
change mingw32-ld to ld
save MakefileWIN32

in the cygwin console, type make -f MakefileWIN32
now it should make rtmpdump quickly and give you rtmpdump_win32.exe

help, i get this error when compiling rtmpdump!

Code:

In file included from rtmp.cpp:36:

rtmp.h:94: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of 'DH' with no type

rtmp.h:94: error: expected ';' before '*' token

rtmp.h:95: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of 'RC4_KEY' with no type

rtmp.h:95: error: expected ';' before '*' token

rtmp.h:96: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of 'RC4_KEY' with no type

it means rtmpdump cant find openssl (in /usr/include/openssl). make sure you installed openssl-devel.
if you installed it somewhere else , you can specify it by editing the makefilewin32 and adding the correct path to your openssl to the cxxflags of MakefileWIN32:

Code:

-I /usr/local/ssl/include/

Quote:

help, i get this error

Code:

/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/4.3.2/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld: cannot find

 -lssl

gcc cant find /usr/lib/libssl.a or /usr/lib/libssl.dll.a , make sure you have openssl installed properly (or copy those files to /usr/lib)

Re: RTMPDump - how do I compile source code?

when i download the source file the file makeWIN32 is not there.. wtf?

Read the README, that's what it's there for.

hi,expert,i compiled the rtmpdump with cygwin,how can i remove the
