Mosquitto

Download and run the cygwin installer from http://www.cygwin.com/
You’ll need to select the following packages to be installed from the list:

• binutils
• gcc4-core
• gcc4-gcc
• libwrap-devel
• libwrap0
• make
• mercurial
• wget
• openssl

Once everything has installed, start cygwin. You now need to obtain the source for mosquitto. If you wish to compile a released version, do the following (updating the version number appropriately):

• wget http://mosquitto.org/files/source/mosquitto-0.10.2.tar.gz
• tar zxf mosquitto-0.10.2.tar.gz
• cd mosquitto-0.10.2

If you want to use the unreleased code from the repository, do the following:

• hg clone http://bitbucket.org/oojah/mosquitto
• cd mosquitto

If you already have a copy of the repository code and want to update, do the following to get the latest version:

• cd mosquitto
• hg pull -u

Compiling should now be as simple as typing “make”. Note that there will be an error when trying to create the man page documentation – this is non-critical.

You can now run mosquitto through cygwin, or if you want to run it by double clicking then you will need to place the appropriate dlls in its directory – again, see the Windows binary releases.
