Ring

Ring Programming Language

Building using Microsoft Windows

Get the source code

Using HTTP

git clone https://github.com/ring-lang/ring.git

Or using SSH

git clone [email protected]:ring-lang/ring.git

Complete Build (Compiler/VM, Extensions, Tools, etc.)

Install Qt 5.15.17 (in C:\Qt) so we have the folder (C:\Qt\5.15.17)

If you have another version from Qt 5.15 (like Qt 5.15.2) - Or Qt is installed in another folder

The next batch files uses environment variables (RING_QT_DIR & RING_QT_VERSION) to set the path

To build 32bit version:

ring/build/buildvc.bat

To build 64bit version:

ring/build/buildvc_x64.bat

Add ring/bin folder to your system path

Run Ring Notepad

ringpm run ringnotepad

Custom Build

64bit version

The next steps demonstrates how to build the 32bit version

To build the 64bit version add _x64 to the batch file name (i.e. use buildvc_x64.bat instead of buildvc.bat) Also, use ring/bin/install_x64.bat instead of ring/bin/install.bat
