2.10.8.4. Testing a Windows Source Build
You should test the server that you have built from source before using the distribution.
To test the server you need to run the built mysqld. By default, using the source build examples, the

directory, you need to tell the server their path names. You can either do this on the command line with

2.10.8.5. Creating a Windows Source Package from the Bazaar Repository
To create a Windows source package from the current Bazaar source tree, use the instructions here.
This procedure must be performed on a system running a Unix or Unix-like operating system because
some of the configuration and build steps require tools that work only on Unix. For example, the
following procedure is known to work well on Linux.
1. Copy the Bazaar source tree for MySQL 5.0. For instructions on how to do this, see
"Installing MySQL from a Development Source
2. Configure and build the distribution so that you have a server binary to work with. One way to do
this is to run the following command in the top-level directory of your source tree:
shell> ./BUILD/compile-pentium-max
3. After making sure that the build process completed successfully, run the following utility script from
top-level directory of your source tree:
shell> ./scripts/make_win_src_distribution
This script creates a Windows source package to be used on your Windows system.
You can supply different options to the script based on your needs. See
"make_win_src_distribution
