Installing argtable2 on Unix systems
------------------------------------
The basic compile and install procedure for unix systems is:
$ cd argtable2-x
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make check (optional)
$ sudo make install
$ make clean
Remember to update your system's LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include
the location of the dynamic library (normally /usr/local/lib/).
The configuration script will install argtable into /usr/local/
by default. To install into a different directory, specify
that directory path when you run configure, as in
$ ./configure --prefix=~fred/mystuff
See install.txt for a detailed description of the configure script.
OS X notes:
1) Mac OS X uses DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH instead of LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
DJGPP notes:
1) DJGPP users may need to specify the compiler name at configure
time, as in
$ ./configure CC=gcc.exe
Installing argtable2 on DOS/Windows systems
-------------------------------------------
To build argtable.lib:
> cd src
> nmake -f Makefile.nmake
Then copy the argtable2.h, argtable2.lib, argtable2.dll, impargtable2.lib
files to wherever you choose.
To build the example programs:
> cd example
> nmake -f Makefile.nmake
Notes:
1) The arg_rex and arg_date command line argument types are not supported
under Microsoft Windows because the Microsoft compilers do not provide
the necessary regex.h and strptime() functions.
2) Watcom compilers may have trouble building the DLL version of the library,
giving an error like this:
Error! E3033: file _2FK.AAA: line(15): directive error near 'Files\dm\lib'
To workaround this, edit line 34 of src/Makefile.nmake and remove the
"/def:argtable2.def" from the linker stanza
line 33: argtable2.dll: $(OBJS)
line 34: link /DLL /OUT:$@ $** /IMPLIB:impargtable2.lib
Cross-compiling argtable2 for Windows from Linux
------------------------------------------------
You can crosscompile argtable2 on Linux with Win32-platforms as target
using mingw32. However, as with native Windows compilers, the arg_rex
and arg_date command line argument types are not supported by mingw32
because it currently offers no regex.h nor strptime() functions.
The following procedure was tested on a Debian "Sid" install with the
mingw32 default packages installed.
1) Make sure, you have the mingw32-crosscompiler installed. There are
precompiled packages for several distributions available. You can
get the sources from http://www.mingw.org/
2) Set the apropriate environment variables:
$ export PATH=/path/to/your/mingw/bin:$PATH
Usually the path is something like
/usr/i586-mingw32/i586-mingw32/bin
or
/usr/local/i586-mingw32/bin
Sometimes it helps to set also the COMPILER_PATH environment
variable to your mingw-binary-path.
3) Run configure:
$ cd argtable2-x
$ ./configure --build=i586-linux --host=i586-mingw32msvc \
--target=i586-mingw32msvc \
--prefix=/path/to/install
You most certainly want to give a different prefix than the default
one. The resulting lib will not be useable by your usual ELF-loader.
See argtable's INSTALL file for further configure options.
4) Build and install argtable2:
$ make
$ make install
Please note, that this creates a static library (libargtable2.a) and a
shared one (libargtable2.so), which you link to your object code in the
usual way (-L/path/to/prefix/lib -largtable2 -I/path/to/prefix/include).
Building of DLLs is currently not supported, but may be done by hand.
A .def-file is already included in the src/ directory.
