1This is a port of GNU Libiconv @VER@ to MSDOS/DJGPP. 2 31.: DJGPP specific changes. 4 ======================= 5 There are no DJGPP specific changes. This package should 6 configure and compile out-of-the-box. 7 Please read the documentation to become familiar with this 8 product. 9 10 112.: Installing the binary package. 12 ============================== 13 142.1.: Copy the binary distribution into the top DJGPP installation 15 directory and unzip the binary distribution running *ONE* of 16 the following commands: 17 unzip32 licv@packageversion@b.zip or 18 djtarx licv@packageversion@b.zip or 19 pkunzip -d licv@packageversion@b.zip 20 21 22 233.: Building the binaries from sources. 24 =================================== 25 263.1.: To build the binaries you will need the following binary packages: 27 djdev203.zip (patchlevel 2), 28 bshNNNb.zip, gccNNNb.zip, bnuNNNb.zip, makNNNb.zip, filNNNb.zip, 29 shlNNNb.zip, txtNNNb.zip, txiNNNb.zip, grepNNNb.zip, sedNNNb.zip, 30 and difNNN.zip 31 32 NNN represents the latest version number of the binary packages. All 33 this packages can be found in the current/v2gnu/ directory of any 34 ftp.delorie.com mirror. 35 363.2.: Create a temporary directory and copy the source package: licv@packageversion@s.zip 37 into the temporary directory. If you download the source distribution 38 from one of the DJGPP archives, just unzip it preserving the directory 39 structure, runnig ONE of the following commands: 40 unzip32 licv@packageversion@s.zip or 41 djtarx licv@packageversion@s.zip or 42 pkunzip -d licv@packageversion@s.zip 43 44 Source distributions downloaded from one of the GNU FTP sites need 45 some more work to unpack. First, you MUST use the `djtar' program 46 to unzip the package. That's because some file names in the official 47 distributions need to be changed to avoid problems on the various 48 platforms supported by DJGPP. `djtar' can rename files on the fly 49 given a file with name mappings. The distribution includes a file 50 `djgpp/fnchange.lst' with the necessary mappings. So you need first 51 to retrieve that file, and then invoke `djtar' to unpack the 52 distribution. Here's how: 53 54 djtar -x -p -o @V@/djgpp/fnchange.lst @V@.tar.gz > lst 55 djtar -x -n lst @V@.tar.gz 56 57 (The name of the distribution archive and the top-level directory will 58 be different for versions other than @VER@.) 59 603.3.: If you have downloaded the source package from one of the GNU FTP sites 61 you will have to configure the package running the command: 62 djgpp\config.bat 63 643.4.: If you have downloaded the source package from one of the delorie FTP 65 sites the package is already preconfigured for djdev203 or later. In 66 any case, to build the products you must run the following command: 67 make 68 69 After the compilation has finished, you can check the products 70 running the command: 71 make check 72 73 To install the products run the command: 74 make install 75 76 This will install the products (iconv.exe iconv.h localcharset.h libconv.a 77 libcharset.a iconv.1 iconv.3 iconv_open.3 iconv_close.3) into your DJGPP 78 installation tree. As usual, prefix is defined as "/dev/env/DJDIR". 79 If you prefer to install into same other directory run the command: 80 make install prefix=z:/some/other/dir 81 82 Of course, you should replace "z:/some/other/dir" by an appropriate path 83 that will meet your requeriments. 84 853.5.: If for some reason you want to reconfigure the package cd into the top 86 srcdir (libiconv.@treeversion@) and run the following commands: 87 del djgpp\config.cache 88 make distclean 89 djgpp\config 90 91 Please note that you *MUST* delete the config.cache file in the djgpp 92 subdir or you will not really reconfigure the sources because the 93 configuration informations will be read from the cache file instead 94 of being newly computed. 95 To build the programs in a directory other than where the sources are, 96 you must add the parameter that specifies the source directory, 97 e.g: 98 x:\src\gnu\libiconv.@treeversion@\djgpp\config x:/src/gnu/libiconv.@treeversion@ 99 100 Lets assume you want to build the binaries in a directory placed on a 101 different drive (z:\build in this case) from where the sources are, 102 then you will run the following commands: 103 z: 104 md \build 105 cd \build 106 x:\src\gnu\libiconv.@treeversion@\djgpp\config x:/src/gnu/libiconv.@treeversion@ 107 108 You *MUST* use forward slashes to specify the source directory. 109 After having configured the package run the folowing commands to create 110 the binaries and docs and install them: 111 make 112 make check 113 make install 114 115 Send suggestions and bug reports concerning the DJGPP port to 116 comp.os.msdos.djgpp or djgpp@delorie.com. Libiconv specific bugs 117 must be reported to <bug-gnu-libiconv@gnu.org>. 118 119 120 Guerrero, Juan Manuel <juan.guerrero@gmx.de> 121
