CHDK-Shell is a nice GUI for developers to easily download, compile and manage the CHDK sources on a Windows platform.

The CHDK-Shell is written with AutoIt scripting language (easy to customise, the source code is included) by whim from the CHDK forum.

Getting Started

• Download the FULL package (file CHDK-Shell-{version}-FULL-SFX.exe, approx. 17 Mb), it includes appropriate GCC compiler versions & all required files
• Extract to an empty directory without spaces in name (example: D:\CHDK) - the installer will create one for you if you type a non-existing folder name;
• When done, open the folder and start CHDK-Shell-{version}.exe
• To install an update version, just choose your existing folder (that would be D:\CHDK in case of the example above) and allow the updater to overwrite files

Supported OS

• Windows 2000 (tested)
• Windows XP (tested)
• Windows 2003 (tested, thanks hotvedt !)
• Windows Vista (tested, thanks nmcconnell !)
• Windows 2008 (needs testing, anyone ?)
• Windows 7 (tested, thanks Darkness !)

please post feedback (questions, bug reports, suggestions) in the CHDK-Shell thread or this thread on the German Forum --- Note that posting on either forum requires registering.

Features

• downloads gcc compiler / complete CHDK building environment, tools and current CHDK source (trunk or branches)
• compiles CHDK for selected or all camera's with access to many compile time options
• user configurable, flexible CHDK source updating with optional auto-compilation
• includes CardTricks to install and manage CHDK on your SD-Cards
• does not permanently change your enviroment, no conflicts with other compilers already installed on your machine
• option to check/download/install program updates
• clones & manages multiple build trees, creates Diff, and applies Patch files
• switchable gcc 3.4 / 4.x support
• Windows Vista / Windows 2008 / Windows 7 support (thanks to nmcconnell for the golden tip !)
• switchable support for the german chdkde source tree ^New !
• ...and much more helpful tools & features for the CHDK development

Download

CHDK-Shell dowload site thanks to fe50, alternative downloads in "Development" here

Note: For a first install, use the version marked '(full)' (~ 19 MB) Versions not marked 'full' are updates (no GCC compilers, ~ 1.2 MB) Packaged as 7-zip self extracters, unpack to a path without spaces

• CHDK-Shell Version 3.09 (released: 2011-03-29) ^New !

added: Older builds' folders (i.e. what shows up when you press 'Change') can now be automatically deleted according to user settings in the 'SVN Options' dialog. Cloned/renamed builds (like 'trunk999_work' etc.) or the zips in the /archive folders will never be deleted (so you can always restore your downloaded SVN builds using 'Unzip archives') To avoid blocking the program, the folder(s) are initially just marked for deletion (by renaming them to '~!~nameXXX') and then deleted in a separate thread, with a small tooltip @top left of the screen. Thanks for the suggestion, waterwingz !

• CHDK-Shell Version 3.08 (released: 2011-03-12)

fixed: fix from 3.07 now actually works ;)

!!! You might have to force a fresh download of ptpCamGui by deleting the existing 'CHDK-Shell\guest\ptpCamGui' folder to get this to work

• CHDK-Shell Version 3.06 (released: 2011-02-21)

fixed: Parsing of top level Makefile to determine the list of supported camera's would stop parsing at the fist empty line; this caused some 7 camera's to not be detected.

changed: Depending on current SVN, Forum button links to english/german forum, Forum & Wiki (top right) now have a context menu with more links

• CHDK-Shell Version 3.05 (released: 2011-02-14)

fixed: ptpCamGui should now no longer 'break' if it is updated; thanks rudi !

changed: Played a bit with the thanks screen ... if you preferred the previous version, you can find it in the ....\CHDK-Shell\guest\thanks directory, the file named 'Thanks.au3' will be run, so rename as required. Almost forgot: it also has a close icon on the GUI now.

• CHDK-Shell Version 3.03 (released: 2011-02-11)

changed: 'Abort' checkbox for compilation moved to 'Status' group

changed: Cam Properties Cross-Reference (in 'Source Tools ..'). The FULL report ('camprops_xref.log') now repeats the property headers after every 24 cams, and the cam names after every 2 properties, which helps keep the overview. Thanks for the suggestion, msl !

fixed: Diff function (in "Source tools ..") should be more resistant against crashing while diff'ing. Thanks go to waterwingz for reporting the crashes and providing test material to test against.
