Semi-automatic Compilation with Build Script

A UNIGINE Build script is a one-touch solution to rebuild the engine and tools with different options.

To invoke the build script, run <UnigineSDK>/utils/build.py from a console (see examples below). Note that you need to properly set the development environment to get the script working.

Built files can be found in the target directory, in bin and lib folders.

Notice
Rebuilding the UNIGINE engine and tools is available only in the full source version of SDK.

Command Line Options

--help Display a help message and exit.
--type TYPE Type of the build (multiple options are accepted). The default is release.

all
release
debug
Both debug and release versions of components are built at the same time
Production version
Version with detailed debugging information
--bits BITS Bit count of the target platform. OS native bit count is detected and used as a default one.

all
32
64
Build two variants for both 32- and 64-bit platforms
32-bit build
64-bit build
--csharp Build the C# libraries and the application.
Notice
If the --sample parameter is set to all, both the C# and C++ samples will be built.
--component COMPONENT UNIGINE component to build. The default is engine.

all

engine
tools
samples
UNIGINE engine together with stand-alone tools, plugins and C++ samples. If the --csharp is passed, C# and samples will be built too.
UNIGINE engine (both the binary executable and the library)
Stand-alone tools
C++ samples. If the --csharp is passed, both the C++ and C# samples will be built.
--precision PRECISION Create a build with single or double precision coordinates support. The default is float.

float
double
Use single precision coordinates
Use double precision coordinates
--plugin PLUGIN Build C++ plugins individually or in groups. The default is no.

Plugins are specified in the following way:

Shell commands
--plugin PluginName1 PluginName2 PluginName3
--tool TOOL Build UNIGINE tools individually or in groups (--component parameter should be set to all or tools). The default is all.

Tools are specified in the following way:

Shell commands
--tool ToolName1 ToolName2 ToolName3
--log LOGFILE Create a log file that contains a record of the compilation. By default, no name is specified and the log file is not created.
--sample SAMPLE Build the C++/C# samples. Multiple options are allowed. The default is no.
Notice
  • If the --csharp parameter is set, the C# samples can also be built.
  • If the --csharp parameter is set and --sample is set to all, both the C++ and C# samples will be built.

no

Samples are specified in the following way:

Shell commands
--sample SampleName1 SampleName2 SampleName3
--simd SIMD Perform parallel compilation using the SIMD operations. The default is sse2.

no
sse
sse2
avx
Do not use
Use SSE technology
Use SSE2 technology
Use AVX technology
--jobs JOBS Perform parallel compilation. An argument specifies the number of parallel building jobs to be run. The default is all.

all
1
2
3
4
6
8
Use all available CPU cores to run the building jobs
Use 1 thread
Use 2 threads
Use 3 threads
Use 4 threads
Use 6 threads
Use 8 threads
--clean_source Clean up the source directory before the compilation starts (i.e. remove pdb, ilk, exp files, etc.). When this option is set, the source/clean.py script is actually run. If you need to clean up after the compilation was performed, run this script manually (the target directory will remain untouched).
--clean_target Delete everything from the target directory before the compilation starts.
--terminal Enable the TELNET terminal.
--password Use the password. The <UnigineSDK>/source/engine/password.resource file should be created by using the Resource tool before rebuilding.
--skip_errors Skip build errors (if any). When this option is set, the build.py script is run for all of the specified tools and plugins, even if errors occur. The build errors are displayed at the end.
Notice
This option allows skipping build errors only for tools and plugins.
This option allows you to check which plugins and tools have not been built successfully and speeds up error fixing.
TARGET The last optional argument is a target directory to store builds, by default it's ../. Two additional directories in the target directory will be created: bin and lib to store the binary executable and libraries, respectively.

If no options are set, the script will be built with default values.

Usage Examples

To build the release version of the UNIGINE engine (both the binary executable and the UNIGINE library) for a 64-bit platform, just run the build script:

Shell commands
C:\Windows\system32>c:

C:\Windows\system32>cd c:\UNIGINESDK\utils\

C:\UNIGINESDK\utils>build.py

In the example below, the debug version of tools will be rebuilt for 32-bit Windows (the current platform):

Shell commands
C:\UNIGINESDK\utils>build.py --type=debug --bits=32 --component=tools

To create the debug version of the engine with double precision coordinates support, use the following:

Shell commands
C:\UNIGINESDK\utils>build.py --type=debug --precision=double

To build all the C++ and C# samples, type:

Shell commands
C:\UNIGINESDK\utils>build.py --csharp --sample=all

To build the release version of the GPUMonitor plugin for x64 platform, use the following command:

Shell commands
C:\UNIGINESDK\utils>build.py --plugin=GPUMonitor
