The default compilation and linking arrangements should -also work unchanged on these systems, but if no specific configuration -has been provided for your system, shared libraries won't be compiled. -Configuring these requires modifications to be made to the file: - - configure.in - -This file is heavily commented (comments start with the word dnl) and -is relatively simple, so the instructions and suggestions that you -find in this file should be sufficient to help you figure out how to -add a configuration for your system. This file is an input file to the -GNU autoconf program, which uses it as a template for generating the -distributed configure script. If autoconf is installed on your system, -creating a new configure script is a simple matter of typing. - - autoconf - -To avoid confusion with the leftovers of the previous configuration, -you should then do the following: - - rm -f config.cache - ./configure - make clean - ./configure - make - -The first ./configure creates a new makefile for your system, allowing -you to type 'make clean' to discard any files that were compiled with -the previous configuration. Since 'make clean' also deletes the new -makefile, a second invokation of the configure script is then -performed to re-create the makefile. The final make then creates the -tecla library from scratch. - -Once you have confirmed that the new configuration works, please send -the modified "configure.in" template to mcs@astro.caltech.edu, so that -your changes can be included in subsequent releases. |
