Properly Installing in windows, under conda about triton HOT 12 CLOSED

The last time I built it for Windows, I downloaded the source and all the dependencies (LLVM, Z3, Capstone...) then I opened the folder with cmake-gui. You have to manually enable features and enter the paths to your downloaded libraries. You should also enable PYTHON_BINDINGS_AUTOCOMPLETE. Click configure until there are no errors then click generate and make sure you only have warnings and no errors. Then you can open the solution in VS. Build python-triton and triton_autocomplete. Now you should have the .pyd and .pyi files that you can copy to your python site-packages directory. If you get any errors while building you probably didn't set up the dependecies correctly in CMAKE.

Cher Andrix44!
Well, that sounds like a really good answer!
I shall definitely try it ASAP and then report back the results to the community!
Thanks a lot!

Follow up for anyone as well, to build Release builds on Windows with pre-built LLVM support. Note: still running into issues when generating debug builds of my projects using Triton, but for Release builds it's fine.

I'm using PowerShell to set the dependencies as such, but you can readily adjust this to your build environment.

$BuildDir = "C:\code\triton\build"

# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# z3 pre-built dependencies
#  > pre-build: https://github.com/Z3Prover/z3/releases/download/z3-4.8.9/z3-4.8.9-x64-win.zip
# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$Z3_INCLUDE_DIRS   = "$BuildDir\z3\include"
$Z3_LIBRARIES_DIR  = "$BuildDir\z3\bin"
$Z3_LIBRARIES      = "$Z3_LIBRARIES_DIR\libz3.lib"

# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# capstone 4.0.2 pre-built dependencies
#   > build first, straightforward
# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$CAPSTONE_INCLUDE_DIRS = "$BuildDir\capstone-4.0.2\include" 
$CAPSTONE_LIBRARIES    = "$BuildDir\capstone-4.0.2\msvc\x64\Release\capstone.lib"

# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$LLVM_PREFIX = "C:\code\llvm-15.0.3-win64"
$LLVM_DIR = "$LLVM_DIR\lib\cmake\llvm"             # needs to find LLVMConfig.cmake

NOTE: for LLVM, he has a hardcoded path for diaguids.pdb that could cause an issue when building. You can adjust to your build environment by modifying the LLVMExports.cmake file or the .csprojx file after running cmake.

Then generate the build scripts as such (targeting Python11 here):

cmake -DLLVM_INTERFACE=ON -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="$LLVM_PREFIX" -DLLVM_DIR="$LLVM_DIR" -DPYTHON_VERSION="3.11" -DCAPSTONE_INCLUDE_DIRS="$CAPSTONE_INCLUDE_DIRS" -DCAPSTONE_LIBRARIES="$CAPSTONE_LIBRARIES" -DZ3_INCLUDE_DIRS="$Z3_INCLUDE_DIRS" -DZ3_LIBRARIES_DIR="$Z3_LIBRARIES_DIR".. -A x64

msbuild C:\code\triton\build\triton.sln /property:Configuration=Release /property:Platform=x64 /t:triton /t:python-triton /m:3

For both builds, the native and Python, make sure libz3.dll is always accessible, since it's a direct dependency.

from triton.

Also check that all deps like z3 are into the same folder than triton.pyd

from triton.

I copied and pasted this set of files in a few places....
the capstone DLL
the lib Z3 dll
the triton DLL
i also duplicated all of them, and changed the extension to pyd

I get this error when trying to import triton from the vcpkg:
Python.Runtime.PythonException: 'ImportError : dynamic module does not define module export function (PyInit_triton)'

using the artifacts for x64 from the build (from https://ci.appveyor.com/project/JonathanSalwan/triton/history) results in this error:
Python.Runtime.PythonException: 'ModuleNotFoundError : No module named 'triton.language'; 'triton' is not a package'

any ideas?

from triton.

PyInit_triton makes me think about an issue around Python version (compile vs runtime). Is the Python version used during the compile is the same than the one used at runtime?

from triton.

Hello, dear friends!
Pretty much the same situation installing triton and referencing it from python script.
Could somebody in the name of charity and goodwill explain how to handle this problem? Detailed instruction would be very much appreciated since i am out of options after trying all recommended steps...
Thanks in advance!

from triton.

Sorry guys, I can't help you on that side as i do not have a Windows on hand.

from triton.

Awesome, thanks a lot for this feedback!
