|
+To build ppremake on Unix (or Windows Cygwin) using autoconf, follow
|
|
|
+the following steps.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Note that if you are building on Windows, you do not need to use
|
|
|
+Cygwin (a VC7 project file is provided), but you must use Cygwin to
|
|
|
+build ppremake if you want to build a version of ppremake that can
|
|
|
+correctly decode Cygwin-style pathnames into Windows-style pathnames.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+(1) If the file "configure" exists, skip to step (4), below. This is
|
|
|
+ the normal case; you have unpacked a tarball that includes the
|
|
|
+ normal autoconf files already generated for you. You can now
|
|
|
+ successfully build the tree without having autoconf installed on
|
|
|
+ your own machine.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Otherwise, you must have checked this tree directly out from CVS.
|
|
|
+ Since the autoconf-generated files are not part of the source
|
|
|
+ tree, you must now generate them.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ (2) Install autoconf and/or automake, if they are not already
|
|
|
+ installed. If you are building on a Linux machine, you probably
|
|
|
+ already have these installed. If you are running on Cygwin, you
|
|
|
+ may need to explicitly check the "autoconf" install option in
|
|
|
+ order to install these scripts.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ (3) Run the following commands within the ppremake directory:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ aclocal
|
|
|
+ autoheader
|
|
|
+ automake --foreign -a
|
|
|
+ autoconf
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+(4) Now you have a tree that has been processed with autoconf, and you
|
|
|
+ are ready to run the resulting configure script. Type the
|
|
|
+ following command within the ppremake directory:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ ./configure
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ This will examine the machine's environment for header files,
|
|
|
+ etc., and set up the Makefile to build ppremake appropriately.
|
|
|
+ The default path to copy the installed binary is within
|
|
|
+ /usr/local/panda; if you wish to install it somewhere else, for
|
|
|
+ instance /my/install/dir, use:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ ./configure --prefix=/my/install/dir
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Note that this is a Cygwin-style path, with forward slashes and no
|
|
|
+ drive letter; not a Windows-style path.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+(5) Type the following to build and install ppremake:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ make
|
|
|
+ make install
