* Installing SBCL from source on Windows This tutorial assumes you have installed binary version of SBCL downloaded from http://www.sbcl.org/platform-table.html Also, it assumes you have Msys2 installed. https://www.msys2.org/ And all the tools needed for compilation are there. On top of that I used Windows cmd started from a bat file that adds Msys2 paths. ** Compile SBCL I have pulled the latest source and compiled it. The usual command has worked #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE sh clean.sh sh make.sh --dynamic-space-size=4Gb #+END_EXAMPLE ** Install Wix tools *** Problem The install script ~sh install.sh~ is not built for Windows. *** Solution I went to http://wixtoolset.org/releases/ And clicked on a button ~DOWNLOAD WIX 3.11.1~ That lead to the page where I could select the exe file. After installing Wix I had to restart computer. ** Restart, build Installer and install After installing I had to run #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE sh make-windows-installer.sh #+END_EXAMPLE After running that in the output folder I could see the *.msi file. Clicking on it has ran the installer. I have completed the installation and went to the next step. ** Restart and try SBCL #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE c:/ $ sbcl --version SBCL 1.5.1 c:/ $ #+END_EXAMPLE Success!
