Quick Summary | ||
============= | ||
|
||
To build and install the Funtools package, simply execute: | ||
|
||
./configure # site-specific configuration | ||
make # build the software | ||
make install # install it | ||
make clean # clean up unneeded temp files | ||
|
||
You might want to install in a directory other than /usr/local, so as not to | ||
require root access. To do this, configure for a different install directory: | ||
|
||
./configure --prefix=<top_level_install_dir> | ||
e.g., | ||
./configure --prefix=/soft/saord | ||
|
||
Programs will be installed in /soft/saord/bin, libraries in /soft/saord/lib, | ||
and include files in /soft/saord/include. Indeed, we do this at SAO and | ||
recommend it as a general rule, in order to keep SAORD software in one place | ||
that does not conflict with other installations. Note that you will need to | ||
add the bin directory to your path. | ||
|
||
The build ("make") takes only a minute or so on modern machines. To | ||
monitor its progress and/or check for errors, redirect output to a file | ||
and use the 'tail' command: | ||
|
||
make >& foo.log &; tail -f foo.log # csh | ||
or | ||
make 1>foo.log 2>&1 &; tail -f foo.log # sh, bash | ||
|
||
|
||
NB: Windows users | ||
================= | ||
|
||
To build funtools on a Windows platform, you first need to install | ||
the Cygwin package from: | ||
|
||
http://cygwin.com/ | ||
|
||
From the Web page: | ||
|
||
Cygwin is a Linux-like environment for Windows. It consists of two | ||
parts: A DLL (cygwin1.dll) which acts as a Linux API emulation layer | ||
providing substantial Linux API functionality. A collection of tools | ||
which provide Linux look and feel. | ||
|
||
When installing cygwin, make sure you install 'gcc' and 'make' from the | ||
Development package. I think that's all you need ... | ||
|
||
Details of Installation | ||
======================= | ||
|
||
NB: These are generic installation instructions, modified for Funtools. | ||
|
||
The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for | ||
various system-dependent variables used during compilation. It uses | ||
those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory of the package. | ||
It may also create one or more `.h' files containing system-dependent | ||
definitions. Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status' that | ||
you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, a file | ||
`config.cache' that saves the results of its tests to speed up | ||
reconfiguring, and a file `config.log' containing compiler output | ||
(useful mainly for debugging `configure'). | ||
|
||
If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try | ||
to figure out how `configure' could check whether to do them, and mail | ||
diffs or instructions to the address given in the `README' so they can | ||
be considered for the next release. If at some point `config.cache' | ||
contains results you don't want to keep, you may remove or edit it. | ||
|
||
The file `configure.in' is used to create `configure' by a program | ||
called `autoconf'. You only need `configure.in' if you want to change | ||
it or regenerate `configure' using a newer version of `autoconf'. | ||
|
||
The simplest way to compile this package is: | ||
|
||
`./configure' to configure the package for your system. If you're | ||
using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type | ||
`sh ./configure' instead to prevent `csh' from trying to execute | ||
`configure' itself. | ||
|
||
Running `configure' takes awhile. While running, it prints some | ||
messages telling which features it is checking for. | ||
|
||
1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type | ||
"./configure". This runs a configuration script created by GNU | ||
autoconf, which configures Funtools for your system and creates a | ||
Makefile. The configure script allows you to customize the Funtools | ||
configuration for your site; for details on how you can do this, | ||
type "./configure -help" or refer to the autoconf documentation (not | ||
included here). The Funtools "configure" script supports the following | ||
special switch(es) in addition to the standard ones: | ||
|
||
--enable-shared=yes|link|no | ||
Build shared libraries in addition to the | ||
default static library. There are two options: | ||
|
||
If the value is "yes", shared libraries are | ||
built but not used to link xpa programs. | ||
|
||
If the value is "link", shared libraries are | ||
used to link xpa programs. If therefore becomes | ||
your responsibility to put the shared library | ||
where it can be found (or use LD_LIBRARY_PATH). | ||
|
||
--enable-dl=yes|no | ||
With gcc available, perform on-the-fly filtering | ||
by compiling a shared object and dynamically | ||
loading it into the executable. The default is | ||
to compile and link a separate slave program. | ||
(Surprisingly, processing speed is about the | ||
same for both methods.) | ||
|
||
--enable-mainlib=yes|no | ||
Build funtools mainlib support, which allows | ||
user programs to call funtools as subroutines. | ||
This is an experimental interface. | ||
|
||
Standard options are listed below. the most important of which | ||
is --prefix (to specify where to install) and --exec-prefix (where to | ||
install executables, if the top level is different from where libraries | ||
and include files are being installed. At SAO, we just use --prefix. | ||
We recommend --prefix be set to a directory that will hold saord software | ||
(e.g., --prefix=/soft/saord) in order to make management of our software | ||
easier. | ||
|
||
NB: be sure to use only absolute path names (those starting with "/") | ||
in the --prefix and --exec_prefix options. (The configure options we | ||
use at SAO for various machines are given as examples in the script | ||
file called "saoconfig" in this directory.) | ||
|
||
NB: Please avoid use of --prefix with 'make install' to change the | ||
install directory. We use the original value of --prefix to determine | ||
where compiled objects are located for linking slave filter programs. | ||
The slave will look in that directory for imregions.o and evregions.o. | ||
If you change the install directory, you will not be able to use these | ||
precompiled objects. Instead, each filter will have to recompile the | ||
region code. | ||
|
||
Compiler flags can be placed on the configure command line after the | ||
switches. For example, to use the icc compiler under Linux, you can | ||
configure this way: | ||
|
||
./configure --prefix=... CC=icc CFLAGS="..." | ||
|
||
If you are going to be dealing with data files larger than 2Gb, | ||
you will need to build in large file support. For gcc and many other | ||
compilers, this is done using the following CFLAGS: | ||
|
||
./configure CFLAGS="-D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64" | ||
|
||
Of course, you can put other switches into CFLAGS as needed: | ||
|
||
./configure CFLAGS="-D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -Wall -g" | ||
|
||
2. Type `make' to compile the package. This will create the libfuntools.a | ||
library and the Funtools utility programs (funcnts, fundisp, etc.) | ||
|
||
3. You can build the libxpa.so shared library manually by executing: | ||
|
||
make shlib | ||
|
||
at this point. | ||
|
||
4. Type "make install" to install Funtools libraries and binaries in | ||
standard places. You'll need write permission on the installation | ||
directories to do this. The installation directories are | ||
determined by the "configure" script and may be specified with | ||
the --prefix option to "configure". See the Makefile for information | ||
on what directories were chosen. | ||
|
||
5. There are .html help files in the doc directory. You can copy | ||
these files to a more convenient location, if you like. We | ||
did not automate this step because we did not know where to | ||
copy these files by default. (NB: The help.html file is the | ||
top level index file.) | ||
|
||
6. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the | ||
source code directory by typing `make clean'. To also remove the | ||
files that `configure' created (so you can compile the package for | ||
a different kind of computer), type `make Distclean'. The latter | ||
also removes all Makefiles (except the one at the top level). | ||
|
||
Compilers and Options | ||
===================== | ||
|
||
Some systems require unusual options for compilation or linking that | ||
the `configure' script does not know about. You can give `configure' | ||
initial values for variables by setting them in the environment: | ||
|
||
./configure CC=c89 CFLAGS=-O2 LIBS=-lposix | ||
|
||
You also can use this facility to specify a compiler other than the default | ||
gcc (if it exists). | ||
|
||
Installation Names | ||
================== | ||
|
||
By default, `make install' will install the package's files in | ||
`/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/lib', etc. You can specify an | ||
installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving `configure' the | ||
option `--prefix=PATH': | ||
|
||
e.g., | ||
./configure --prefix=/soft/saord | ||
|
||
Programs will be installed in /soft/saord/bin, libraries in /soft/saord/lib, | ||
and include files in /soft/saord/include. We recommend this as a general rule, | ||
in order to keep SAORD software in one place that does not conflict with other | ||
installations. Note that you will need to add the bin directory to your path. | ||
|
||
You can specify separate installation prefixes for architecture-specific | ||
files and architecture-independent files. If you give `configure' the option | ||
`--exec-prefix=PATH', the package will use PATH as the prefix for installing | ||
programs and libraries. Documentation and other data files will still use the | ||
regular prefix. | ||
|
||
In addition, if you use an unusual directory layout you can give | ||
options like `--bindir=PATH' to specify different values for particular | ||
kinds of files. Run `configure --help' for a list of the directories | ||
you can set and what kinds of files go in them. | ||
|
||
If the package supports it, you can cause programs to be installed | ||
with an extra prefix or suffix on their names by giving `configure' the | ||
option `--program-prefix=PREFIX' or `--program-suffix=SUFFIX'. | ||
|
||
Optional Features | ||
================= | ||
|
||
Some packages pay attention to `--enable-FEATURE' options to | ||
`configure', where FEATURE indicates an optional part of the package. | ||
They may also pay attention to `--with-PACKAGE' options, where PACKAGE | ||
is something like `gnu-as' or `x' (for the X Window System). The | ||
`README' should mention any `--enable-' and `--with-' options that the | ||
package recognizes. | ||
|
||
Specifying the System Type | ||
========================== | ||
|
||
There may be some features `configure' can not figure out | ||
automatically, but needs to determine by the type of host the package | ||
will run on. Usually `configure' can figure that out, but if it prints | ||
a message saying it can not guess the host type, give it the | ||
`--host=TYPE' option. TYPE can either be a short name for the system | ||
type, such as `sun4', or a canonical name with three fields: | ||
CPU-COMPANY-SYSTEM | ||
|
||
See the file `config.sub' for the possible values of each field. If | ||
`config.sub' isn't included in this package, then this package doesn't | ||
need to know the host type. | ||
|
||
If you are building compiler tools for cross-compiling, you can also | ||
use the `--target=TYPE' option to select the type of system they will | ||
produce code for and the `--build=TYPE' option to select the type of | ||
system on which you are compiling the package. | ||
|
||
Sharing Defaults | ||
================ | ||
|
||
If you want to set default values for `configure' scripts to share, | ||
you can create a site shell script called `config.site' that gives | ||
default values for variables like `CC', `cache_file', and `prefix'. | ||
`configure' looks for `PREFIX/share/config.site' if it exists, then | ||
`PREFIX/etc/config.site' if it exists. Or, you can set the | ||
`CONFIG_SITE' environment variable to the location of the site script. | ||
A warning: not all `configure' scripts look for a site script. | ||
|
||
Operation Controls | ||
================== | ||
|
||
`configure' recognizes the following options to control how it | ||
operates. | ||
|
||
`--cache-file=FILE' | ||
Use and save the results of the tests in FILE instead of | ||
`./config.cache'. Set FILE to `/dev/null' to disable caching, for | ||
debugging `configure'. | ||
|
||
`--help' | ||
Print a summary of the options to `configure', and exit. | ||
|
||
`--quiet' | ||
`--silent' | ||
`-q' | ||
Do not print messages saying which checks are being made. To | ||
suppress all normal output, redirect it to `/dev/null' (any error | ||
messages will still be shown). | ||
|
||
`--srcdir=DIR' | ||
Look for the package's source code in directory DIR. Usually | ||
`configure' can determine that directory automatically. | ||
|
||
`--version' | ||
Print the version of Autoconf used to generate the `configure' | ||
script, and exit. | ||
|
||
`configure' also accepts some other, not widely useful, options. | ||
