Run a command window with your development environment loaded. On a new vista box with Visual Studio 2008 Express, this is available at

Start ->
  All Programs ->
    Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition ->
      Visual Studio Tools ->
        Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt

Choose an empty directory to work in. I choose one where the path mirrors the path to the code in the svn repository:

c:\boost\branches\CMake\release>dir
 Volume in drive C is OS
 Volume Serial Number is 6AC1-32E0

 Directory of c:\boost\branches\CMake\release

06/16/2008  07:22 PM    <DIR>          .
06/16/2008  07:22 PM    <DIR>          ..
               0 File(s)              0 bytes
               2 Dir(s)  48,047,624,192 bytes free

Check that your pysvn and win32api python packages are installed correctly. These commands should just return without output:

c:\boost\branches\CMake\release>python
Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Apr 18 2007, 08:51:08) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on
win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import pysvn
>>> import win32api
>>> exit()

Verify that nmake is in your path:

c:\boost\branches\CMake\release>nmake

NMAKE : fatal error U1064: MAKEFILE not found and no target specified
Stop.

Check out the cmake release branch to directory src:

c:\boost\branches\CMake\release>svn co https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/branches/
CMake/release src
A    src\regression
A    src\configure
A    src\status
A    src\status\explicit-failures-markup.xml
A    src\status\explicit-failures.xsd
A    src\status\Jamfile.v2
A    src\people
...
A    src\libs\filesystem\include\boost\filesystem\fstream.hpp
A    src\libs\filesystem\include\boost\filesystem\operations.hpp
A    src\libs\filesystem\include\boost\filesystem\config.hpp
Checked out external at revision 46437.

Checked out revision 46437.

Create a directory build at the same level as src and cd in there:

c:\boost\branches\CMake\release>mkdir build
c:\boost\branches\CMake\release>cd build

Now do the initial cmake configuration. The options are as follows:

BOOST_BUILD_SLAVE

Enable build slave mode

BUILD_TESTING

Turn on testing of libraries

-G"NMake Makefiles"

Generate nmake makefiles, not visual studio project files

CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM

Specify nmake as the make program

It looks like this (the wrapping and indentation on the commandline are mine, for clarity):

c:\boost\branches\CMake\release\build>cmake -DBOOST_BUILD_SLAVE=ON 
                                            -DBUILD_TESTING=ON 
                                            -G"NMake Makefiles" 
                                            -DCMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM:FILEPATH=nmake 
                                            ../src

Create a file slave-description.txt and put in some descriptive text explaining anything peculiar about the slave's configuration, the site/location, etc.

c:\boost\branches\CMake\release\build>notepad slave-description.txt

There are two last things to configure. Do so via nmake edit_cache:

c:\boost\branches\CMake\release\build>nmake edit_cache

A gui cmake cache editor will pop up: screenshot of windows gui cmake editor

Set the highlighted fields (BOOST_BUILD_SLAVE_CONTACT_INFO and BOOST_BUILD_SLAVE_HOSTNAME. Highlighting is mine.) appropriately and press "OK" to generate makefiles and exit.

Now notify the server that a slave build is about to start:

c:\boost\branches\CMake\release\build>nmake slave-start
