This documentation explains how to compile Capstone with CMake, focus on
using Microsoft Visual C as the compiler.
To compile Capstone on *nix, see COMPILE.TXT.
To compile Capstone on Windows using Visual Studio, see COMPILE_MSVC.TXT.
*-*-*-*-*-*
This documentation requires CMake & Windows SDK or MS Visual Studio installed on
your machine.
Get CMake for free from http://www.cmake.org.
(0) Tailor Capstone to your need.
Out of 8 archtitectures supported by Capstone (Arm, Arm64, Mips, PPC, Sparc,
SystemZ, X86 & XCore), if you just need several selected archs, run "cmake"
with the unwanted archs disabled (set to 0) as followings.
- CAPSTONE_ARM_SUPPORT: support ARM. Run cmake with -DCAPSTONE_ARM_SUPPORT=0 to remove ARM.
- CAPSTONE_ARM64_SUPPORT: support ARM64. Run cmake with -DCAPSTONE_ARM64_SUPPORT=0 to remove ARM64.
- CAPSTONE_MIPS_SUPPORT: support Mips. Run cmake with -DCAPSTONE_MIPS_SUPPORT=0 to remove Mips.
- CAPSTONE_PPC_SUPPORT: support PPC. Run cmake with -DCAPSTONE_PPC_SUPPORT=0 to remove PPC.
- CAPSTONE_SPARC_SUPPORT: support Sparc. Run cmake with -DCAPSTONE_SPARC_SUPPORT=0 to remove Sparc.
- CAPSTONE_SYSZ_SUPPORT: support SystemZ. Run cmake with -DCAPSTONE_SYSZ_SUPPORT=0 to remove SystemZ.
- CAPSTONE_XCORE_SUPPORT: support XCore. Run cmake with -DCAPSTONE_XCORE_SUPPORT=0 to remove XCore.
- CAPSTONE_X86_SUPPORT: support X86. Run cmake with -DCAPSTONE_X86_SUPPORT=0 to remove X86.
By default, all 8 architectures are compiled in.
Besides, Capstone also allows some more customization via following macros.
- CAPSTONE_USE_SYS_DYN_MEM: change this to OFF to use your own dynamic memory management.
- CAPSTONE_BUILD_DIET: change this to ON to make the binaries more compact.
- CAPSTONE_X86_REDUCE: change this to ON to make X86 binary smaller.
- CAPSTONE_X86_ATT_DISABLE: change this to ON to disable AT&T syntax on x86.
By default, Capstone use system dynamic memory management, and both DIET and X86_REDUCE
modes are disabled. To use your own memory allocations, turn ON both DIET &
X86_REDUCE, run "cmake" with: -DCAPSTONE_USE_SYS_DYN_MEM=0 -DCAPSTONE_BUILD_DIET=1 -DCAPSTONE_X86_REDUCE=1
For each option, refer to docs/README for more details.
(1) CMake allows you to generate different generators to build Capstone. Below is
some examples on how to build Capstone on Windows with CMake.
(*) To build Capstone using Nmake of Windows SDK, do:
mkdir build
cd build
..\nmake.bat
After this, find the samples test*.exe, capstone.lib & capstone.dll
in the same directory.
(*) To build Capstone using Visual Studio, choose the generator accordingly to the
version of Visual Studio on your machine. For example, with Visual Studio 2013, do:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -G "Visual Studio 12" ..
After this, find capstone.sln in the same directory. Open it with Visual Studio
and build the solution including libraries & all test as usual.
(2) You can make sure the prior steps successfully worked by launching one of the
testing binary (test*.exe).
