General ------- Unless you are using the cli+dep package, you will also need to install the following dependencies: libcutl >= 1.1.0 http://www.codesynthesis.com/projects/libcutl/ Additionally, for UNIX-like operating systems: build >= 0.3.5 http://kolpackov.net/projects/build/ The cli+dep package comes with the necessary dependencies bundled. UNIX ---- Building on UNIX-like operating systems requires GNU make 3.81 or later. Most recent GNU/Linux distributions should already have this version installed. To check the GNU make version run make (or gmake) with the --version option. To build the compiler, tests, and examples simply run make in the root directory of the package. To run the automated test suite, run 'make test'. To clean the object files, executables, etc., run 'make clean'. To de- configure the package (that is, remove configuration files in addition to objects, executables, etc.), run 'make disfigure'. To install the CLI compiler, examples, and documentation use the install target, for example: $ make install_prefix=/usr install You can fine-tune the installation locations with the following make variables: install_prefix default is /usr/local install_data_prefix default is install_prefix install_exec_prefix default is install_prefix install_bin_dir default is install_exec_prefix/bin install_sbin_dir default is install_exec_prefix/sbin install_lib_dir default is install_exec_prefix/lib install_data_dir default is install_data_prefix/share install_inc_dir default is install_data_prefix/include install_doc_dir default is install_data_dir/doc install_man_dir default is install_data_dir/man install_info_dir default is install_data_dir/info Windows ------- Project and solution files are provided for Visual C++ 8.0 (2005) and 9.0 (2008). To build the CLI compiler, open and build the corresponding solution file in the cli\ directory. After the build is complete, the compiler executable can be found in the cli\ directory. You can also build examples by opening and building one of the solution files in the examples\ directory.
