This is a port of GNU Libcharset @VER@ to MSDOS/DJGPP.
1.: DJGPP specific changes.
=======================
There are no DJGPP specific changes. This package should
configure and compile out-of-the-box.
Please read the documentation to become familiar with this
product.
2.: Installing the binary package.
==============================
2.1.: Copy the binary distribution into the top DJGPP installation
directory and unzip the binary distribution running *ONE* of
the following commands:
unzip32 lcset@packageversion@b.zip or
djtarx lcset@packageversion@b.zip or
pkunzip -d lcset@packageversion@b.zip
3.: Building the binaries from sources.
===================================
3.1.: To build the binaries you will need the following binary packages:
djdev203.zip (patchlevel 2),
bshNNNb.zip, gccNNNb.zip, bnuNNNb.zip, makNNNb.zip, filNNNb.zip,
shlNNNb.zip, txtNNNb.zip, txiNNNb.zip, grepNNNb.zip and sedNNNb.zip
NNN represents the latest version number of the binary packages. All
this packages can be found in the current/v2gnu/ directory of any
ftp.delorie.com mirror.
3.2.: Create a temporary directory and copy the source package: lcset@packageversion@s.zip
into the temporary directory. If you download the source distribution
from one of the DJGPP archives, just unzip it preserving the directory
structure, runnig ONE of the following commands:
unzip32 lcset@packageversion@s.zip or
djtarx lcset@packageversion@s.zip or
pkunzip -d lcset@packageversion@s.zip
Source distributions downloaded from one of the GNU FTP sites need
some more work to unpack. First, you MUST use the `djtar' program
to unzip the package. That's because some file names in the official
distributions need to be changed to avoid problems on the various
platforms supported by DJGPP. `djtar' can rename files on the fly
given a file with name mappings. The distribution includes a file
`djgpp/fnchange.lst' with the necessary mappings. So you need first
to retrieve that file, and then invoke `djtar' to unpack the
distribution. Here's how:
djtar -x -p -o @V@/djgpp/fnchange.lst @V@.tar.gz > lst
djtar -x -n lst @V@.tar.gz
(The name of the distribution archive and the top-level directory will
be different for versions other than @VER@.)
3.3.: If you have downloaded the source package from one of the GNU FTP sites
you will have to configure the package running the command:
djgpp\config.bat
3.4.: If you have downloaded the source package from one of the delorie FTP
sites the package is already preconfigured for djdev203 or later. In
any case, to build the products you must run the following command:
make
After the compilation has finished, you can check the products
running the command:
make check
To install the products run the command:
make install
This will install the products (localcharset.h, libcharset.a) into your
DJGPP installation tree. As usual, prefix is defined as "/dev/env/DJDIR".
If you prefer to install into same other directory, run the command:
make install prefix=z:/some/other/dir
Of course, you should replace "z:/some/other/dir" by an appropriate path
that will meet your requeriments.
3.5.: If for some reason you want to reconfigure the package cd into the top
srcdir (libchset.@treeversion@) and run the following commands:
del djgpp\config.cache
make distclean
djgpp\config
Please note that you *MUST* delete the config.cache file in the djgpp
subdir or you will not really reconfigure the sources because the
configuration informations will be read from the cache file instead
of being newly computed.
To build the programs in a directory other than where the sources are,
you must add the parameter that specifies the source directory,
e.g:
x:\src\gnu\libchset.@treeversion@\djgpp\config x:/src/gnu/libchset.@treeversion@
Lets assume you want to build the binaries in a directory placed on a
different drive (z:\build in this case) from where the sources are,
then you will run the following commands:
z:
md \build
cd \build
x:\src\gnu\libchset.@treeversion@\djgpp\config x:/src/gnu/libchset.@treeversion@
You *MUST* use forward slashes to specify the source directory.
After having configured the package run the folowing commands to create
the binaries and docs and install them:
make
make check
make install
Send suggestions and bug reports concerning the DJGPP port to
comp.os.msdos.djgpp or djgpp@delorie.com. Libcharset specific
bugs must be reported to <bug-gnu-libiconv@gnu.org>.
