How to compile from sources
« on: November 06, 2003, 11:29:44 »
Actully AFAIK theres only a Makefile.am in the linux source, and just using autoconf or automake doesnt work. How do I compile this?

  What about a Makefile.cvs to do this things

Greetings.

do an ./autogen.sh before ./configure (--enable-debug) and make.

Finally We did it but...

You have to know that all source code releases lacks autogen, configure, and so on, we have to get it from CVS.

Oh _that_ source. Yeah, well, I'm not exactly sure why the source dist. is source files only. Ask the admins, aka Cas & Matzon :-)

I remember hearing this before *whistling innocently*
It's the ant buildfile that needs to get fixed, will do this later tonight so that it will be ready for next release.

blah, this will take a bit longer - this weekend instead!
The build script is a bit screwy anyway - need to update it to use Bean Scripting Framework, to allow it to be a wee bit more generic.

Will post update

On a related note, Elias is now also an admin (which he should have been a long time ago), so now you can go pester him too  :twisted:

well, there hasn't really been added that many more features since 0.8, so most likely we'll do a 0.8.1 which fixes some of the bugs thus far.

just an update - I have a *much* better build file now, but I am just struggling a bit with the platform specific parts of the release targets, hopefully they will be solved tomorrow evening...

ok, so someone stole my time - I think I will have it up tonight since I will just use some hacks, for the time being, to get it to work.

I comitted it last night (including hacks :/) - I'll get elias to fix the linux & macosx targets ASAP - and then we should have a *much* more complete build file!
