在Windows上将ActiveMQ-CPP编译为DLL

    ActiveMQ-CPP是ActiveMQ的C++客户端，因为官方未提供二进制文件，所以使用前需要先把源代码编译为动态库DLL或者静态库LIB文件。本文简单介绍生成DLL文件的步骤。编译前，需要先编译APR和CPPUNIT，生成对应的DLL和LIB文件。这2个组件的编译过程请参考本人或者其他网友的相关博文。

    ActiveMQ-CPP的下载地址为http://activemq.apache.org/cms/download.html，目前最新版本为3.8.2，对应的Windows源代码文件名为activemq-cpp-library-3.8.2-src.zip。将此文件下载到目录D:\Apache下，并解压，然后将子目录改名为activemq-cpp。

    建立目录D:\Apache\lib，将APR和CPPUNIT的LIB文件拷贝到此目录下。

    用Visual C++ 2010或更高版本的VC打开文件：D:\Apache\activemq-cpp\vs2008-build\activemq-cpp.sln，将工程activemq-cpp设置为Win32 ReleaseDLL模式、工程activemq-cpp-example设置为Win32 Release模式，编辑这2个工程的属性：添加头文件搜索目录：D:\Apache\cppunit\include、D:\Apache\arp\include、D:\Apache\apr-iconv\include、D:\Apache\apr-util\include；并添加库搜索目录：D:\Apache\lib。然后编译这2个工程, 编译后生成文件D:\Apache\activemq-cpp\vs2008-build\Win32\ReleaseDLL\activemq-cpp.dll，D:\Apache\activemq-cpp\vs2008-build\Release\activemq-cpp-example.exe。

    编译时会出现很多次C4819警告：

1>D:\Apache\activemq-cpp\src\main\decaf/util/Date.h : warning C4819: The file contains a character that cannot be represented in the current code page (936). Save the file in Unicode format to prevent data loss

解决办法：打开date.h文件；点击菜单File->Advanced Save Options，在弹出的选项中选择新的编码方式为：UNICODE codepage 1200，点击确定；保存date.h文件重新编译。

    activemq-cpp-example.exe可以用来测试activemq-cpp.dll。启动ActiveMQ后，执行activemq-cpp-example.exe，部分输出结果如下：
