Compiling ImHex on Linux

On Linux, ImHex is built through regular GCC (or optionally Clang).

  1. Clone the repo using git clone https://github.com/WerWolv/ImHex --recurse-submodules
  2. Install the dependencies using one of the dist/get_deps_*.sh scripts. Choose the one that matches your distro.
  3. Build ImHex itself using the following commands:
cd ImHex
mkdir -p build
cd build
CC=gcc-12 CXX=g++-12 cmake                    \
    -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release                \
    -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="/usr" 	          \
    -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=ccache        \
    -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=ccache      \
    -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS="-fuse-ld=lld"            \
    -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-fuse-ld=lld"          \
    -DCMAKE_OBJC_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=ccache     \
    -DCMAKE_OBJCXX_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=ccache   \
    ..
make -j 4 install

All paths follow the XDG Base Directories standard, and can thus be modified with the environment variables XDG_CONFIG_HOME, XDG_CONFIG_DIRS, XDG_DATA_HOME and XDG_DATA_DIRS.
