-This document contains instructions how to build the FreeType library
-on non-Unix systems with the help of GNU Make. Note that if you are
-running Cygwin or MSys in Windows, you should follow the instructions
-in the file INSTALL.UNIX instead.
-
-
- FreeType 2 includes a powerful and flexible build system that allows
- you to easily compile it on a great variety of platforms from the
- command line. To do so, just follow these simple instructions.
-
- 1. Install GNU Make
- -------------------
-
- Because GNU Make is the only Make tool supported to compile
- FreeType 2, you should install it on your machine.
-
- The FreeType 2 build system relies on many features special to GNU
- Make.
-
- NEARLY ALL OTHER MAKE TOOLS FAIL, INCLUDING `BSD MAKE', SO REALLY
- INSTALL A RECENT VERSION OF GNU MAKE ON YOUR SYSTEM!
-
- Note that make++, a make tool written in Perl, supports enough
- features of GNU make to compile FreeType. See
-
- http://makepp.sourceforge.net
-
- for more information; you need version 1.19 or newer, and you must
- pass option `--norc-substitution'.
-
- Make sure that you are invoking GNU Make from the command line, by
- typing something like:
-
- make -v
-
- to display its version number.
-
- VERSION 3.80 OR NEWER IS NEEDED!
-
-
- 2. Invoke `make'
- ----------------
-
- Go to the root directory of FreeType 2, then simply invoke GNU
- Make from the command line. This will launch the FreeType 2 host
- platform detection routines. A summary will be displayed, for
- example, on Win32.
-
-
- ==============================================================
- FreeType build system -- automatic system detection
-
- The following settings are used:
-
- platform win32
- compiler gcc
- configuration directory .\builds\win32
- configuration rules .\builds\win32\w32-gcc.mk
-
- If this does not correspond to your system or settings please
- remove the file 'config.mk' from this directory then read the
- INSTALL file for help.
-
- Otherwise, simply type 'make' again to build the library
- or 'make refdoc' to build the API reference (the latter needs
- python).
- =============================================================
-
-
- If the detected settings correspond to your platform and compiler,
- skip to step 5. Note that if your platform is completely alien to
- the build system, the detected platform will be `ansi'.
-
-
- 3. Configure the build system for a different compiler
- ------------------------------------------------------
-
- If the build system correctly detected your platform, but you want
- to use a different compiler than the one specified in the summary
- (for most platforms, gcc is the default compiler), invoke GNU Make
- with
-
- make setup <compiler>
-
- Examples:
-
- to use Visual C++ on Win32, type: `make setup visualc'
- to use Borland C++ on Win32, type `make setup bcc32'
- to use Watcom C++ on Win32, type `make setup watcom'
- to use Intel C++ on Win32, type `make setup intelc'
- to use LCC-Win32 on Win32, type: `make setup lcc'
- to use Watcom C++ on OS/2, type `make setup watcom'
- to use VisualAge C++ on OS/2, type `make setup visualage'
-
- The <compiler> name to use is platform-dependent. The list of
- available compilers for your system is available in the file
- `builds/<system>/detect.mk'.
-
- If you are satisfied by the new configuration summary, skip to
- step 5.
-
-
- 4. Configure the build system for an unknown platform/compiler
- --------------------------------------------------------------
-
- The auto-detection/setup phase of the build system copies a file
- to the current directory under the name `config.mk'.
-
- For example, on OS/2+gcc, it would simply copy
- `builds/os2/os2-gcc.mk' to `./config.mk'.
-
- If for some reason your platform isn't correctly detected, copy
- manually the configuration sub-makefile to `./config.mk' and go to
- step 5.
-
- Note that this file is a sub-Makefile used to specify Make
- variables for compiler and linker invocation during the build.
- You can easily create your own version from one of the existing
- configuration files, then copy it to the current directory under
- the name `./config.mk'.
-
-
- 5. Build the library
- --------------------
-
- The auto-detection/setup phase should have copied a file in the
- current directory, called `./config.mk'. This file contains
- definitions of various Make variables used to invoke the compiler
- and linker during the build. [It has also generated a file called
- `ftmodule.h' in the objects directory (which is normally
- `<toplevel>/objs/'); please read the file `docs/CUSTOMIZE' for
- customization of FreeType.]
-
- To launch the build, simply invoke GNU Make again: The top
- Makefile will detect the configuration file and run the build with
- it.
-
-
- Final note
-
- The build system builds a statically linked library of the font
- engine in the `objs' directory. It does _not_ support the build
- of DLLs on Windows and OS/2. If you need these, you have to
- either use an IDE-specific project file, or follow the
- instructions in `INSTALL.ANY' to create your own Makefiles.
