Building headless Bitcoin and Bitcoin-qt on Windows

[simplyarun]

Hi nitrogenetics,

Thanks for sharing the information.
I am looking for a similar guide for setting it all up on a linux(Fedora) system.

Do you have any reference?

I am absolutely new to the gamut of CryptoCurrency.

hey everyone i have been compiling qt4 wallets for a long while now and there is one thing that has been bothering me since i first got started and thats compiling wallets so they dont need the extra .dll files to run, i have added the following code to every .pro file and still it is hit and miss, sometimes it works and 99.9% of the time it does not work, is there an extra step i am missing? i compiled qt with the -static option and i add the CONFIG += static but again hit and miss

Code:

win32:QMAKE_LFLAGS *= -Wl,--large-address-aware -static

This guide is quite outdated now and no longer really accurate, thus I will be locking it as it is also attracting a lot of spam and off topic posts. Bitcoin Core Windows builds are cross compiled in an Ubuntu environment. Windows 10 has a feature called the Windows Subsystem for Linux which is essentially Ubuntu on Windows. Instructions for making Windows builds using the WSL are available here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/build-windows.md.
