-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Quick Start
-----------
Windows:
a) Set the PYTHON_FREEZER_PATH to the cx_Freeze installation directory
b) Go to the <buildtools_project>/BaseTools and run "toolsetup" script
Unix-like:
a) make -C <buildtools_project>/BaseTools
b) Look over https://edk2.tianocore.org/step-by-step-instructions.html
for a helpful step-by-step guide for building 'Hello World' on
various operating systems with edk2.
Supported build targets (toolsetup)
-----------------------------------
build(or none) - Incremental Build of all C based tools. This is the default target
rebuild - Clean all generated files and directories during build, and rebuild all tools
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tools in Python
---------------
* Convert Python source to exe file
The tools written in Python can be converted into executable program which can
be executed without installing a Python interpreter. (Generally it is easier
to run the scripts from their source on operating systems other than Windows.)
For Windows and Linux, the conversion tool package is called cx_Freeze, its
home page is:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cx-freeze/
If you have installed cx_Freeze at c:\cx_Freeze-3.0.3. Use following command
lines to convert MyBuild.py to MyBuild.exe (note this is an example, there is
no MyBuild Python project in the BaseTools\Python tree.
set PYTHONPATH=<BaseToolsDirPath>\Source\Python
c:\cx_Freeze-3.0.3\FreezePython.exe --include-modules=encodings.cp437,encodings.gbk,encodings.utf_16,encodings.utf_16_le,encodings.utf_8 --install-dir=.\mybuild MyBuild.py
The generated .exe (and .dll) files are put in "mybuild" subdirectory.
The following is a real example with the BuildTools/trunk/BaseTools project
installed in: C:\Work\BaseTools
C:\Work\BaseTools\Source\Python> set PYTHONPATH=C:\Work\BaseTools\Source\Python
C:\Work\BaseTools\Source\Python> c:\cx_Freeze-3.0.3\FreezePython.exe --include-modules=encodings.cp437,encodings.gbk,encodings.utf_16,encodings.utf_16_le,encodings.utf_8 --install-dir=C:\Work\BaseTools\Bin\Win32 build\build.py
---------------
* Execute tools written in Python without conversion
Unix-like systems:
The edk2/edksetup.sh script will setup everything which is needed to
run the scripts from their source.
Windows:
The tools written in Python can be executed directly from its source directory
as long as the Python interpreter (Python 2.5) has been installed. Before the execution,
please make sure the environment variable PYTHONPATH is set to
<buildtools_project>/BaseTools/Source/Python
There're five tools written in Python. The entrance file of each tool is listed
below.
build <buildtools_project>/BaseTools/Source/Python/build/build.py
GenFds <buildtools_project>/BaseTools/Source/Python/GenFds/GenFds.py
Trim <buildtools_project>/BaseTools/Source/Python/Trim/Trim.py
MigrationMsa2Inf <buildtools_project>/BaseTools/Source/Python/MigrationMsa2Inf/MigrationMsa2Inf.py
UPT <buildtools_project>/BaseTools/Source/Python/UPT/UPT.py
