Make the modifications necessary to compile dump1090 for WinXP, Win7 and
hopefully Win8.
The files can be compiled using M$ Visual Studio/C++ 6.0. Due to various
licensing issues, I haven't included the libraries or DLLs. You will
need to locate pthreadVC2.lib and rtlsdr.lib to link the file, install
the zadig drivers to support the dongle, and locate libusb-1.0.dll,
msvcr100.dll, pthreadVC2.dll and rtlsdr.dll.
dump1090.exe will not run on any Windows version prior to XP SP2,
because msvcr100.dll imports several functions from the Windows kernel
that are not available on earlier versions. This means dump1090 won't
work on Win2K.
The major change to the code relates to file handles. The original code
assumes Linux behaviour in that handles are allocated from 0
sequentially upwards. However Windows handles are allocated pseudo
randomly, and handle numbers greater than 1024 would break the code. The
code has therefore been modified to use a linked list of connection
structures, rather than a static array limited to 1024 entries.
Create separate makefiles for dump1090, view1090 and ppup1090. These can
be run with the command line "make -f makedump1090", "make -f
makeview1019" and "make -f makeppup1090"
Pass dump1090 version number into ppup1090 uploader so that coaa1090.obj
doesn't need re-compiling between versions.
Remove ppup1090 from general Makefile - it's not intended for anything
other than RPi, so gives linker errors on other (non Linux raspian)
systems.
Updated the way socket handles are used in View1090 to maintain
compatibility between UNIX and Windows.
Added the initial attempt at a Planeplotter uploader
