This combines a Browser Helper Object with a singleton engine process to block ads in Internet Explorer. The engine process embeds libadblockplus.
You need Microsoft Visual C++ (Express is sufficient) 2012 and Python 2.6. Make
sure that python.exe
is on your PATH
. When building with Express Edition
you also need Windows 7.1 Device Kit (not version 8) to satisfy the ATL
dependency, set WINDDKDIR
environment variable to the installation directory
of the Device Kit.
- Execute
createsolution.bat
to generate project files, this will createbuild\ia32\adblockplus.sln
(solution for the 32 bit build) andbuild\x64\adblockplus.sln
(solution for the 64 bit build). Unfortunately, V8 (which is used by libadblockplus) doesn't support creating both from the same project files. - Open
build\ia32\adblockplus.sln
orbuild\x64\adblockplus.sln
in Visual Studio and build the solution there. Alternatively you can use themsbuild
command line tool, e.g. runmsbuild /m build\ia32\adblockplus.sln
from the Visual Studio Developer Command Prompt to create a 32 bit debug build.
