If you find any bugs use the Nevrax Bug Tracking System : <URL:/bugs/> If you need any help contact us on the NeL mailing-list : <URL:/mail/> Requirements ============ The NeL library need the following libraries : - STLPort 4.0 <URL:http://www.stlport.org/> - FreeType 2 <URL:http://www.freetype.org/> On a GNU/Linux platform you will need the following libraries and softwares : - Mesa <URL:http://www.mesa3d.org/> - Autoconf <URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/autoconf.html> - Automake <URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/automake.html> - Libtool <URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/libtool.html> - Lex / Flex <URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/flex/flex.html> - Yacc / Bison <URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/bison/bison.html> Most of these softwares should be already installed on your system or provided on your installation disk. Compilation =========== 1. Windows compilation ---------------------- The compilation on Windows has been done only with Visual C++ 6.0 SP4. Set up Visual C++ to find the STLPort and FreeType libraries. This is done in the [Tools -> Options -> Directories] menu : - Add the STLPort include directory to the "Library Files" category. ex: D:/stlport-4.0/stlport - Add the STLPort library directory to the "Library Files" category. ex: D:/stlport-4.0/lib - Add the FreeType include directory to the "Include Files" category. ex: D:/freetype-2.0/include - Add the FreeType library directory to the "Library Files" category. ex: D:/freetype-2.0/obj Open the workspace file "nel.dsw" (in the menu [File -> Workspace]). Setup Visual C++ to find the NeL include and library files : - Add the NEL include directory to the "Library Files" category. ex: D:/test/code/nel/include - Add the STLPort library directory to the "Library Files" category. ex: D:/test/code/nel/lib 2. GNU/Linux compilation ------------------------ The compilation on GNU/Linux has been done only on RedHat 6.2 with GCC 2.96. In the NeL directory do : % ./configure --with-stlport=<Path_to_the_stlport_headers_files> % make The "configure" script must be call with the "--with-stlport" option. This option permit to override the default STL headers. You migth need to specify the FreeType 2 installation prefix by using the "--with-freetype" argument (ex: "/usr/local" will look for the header files in "/usr/local/include" and the library files in the "/usr/local/lid/ directory). To pass additional arguments to the C++ compiler, use the command line : % CXXFLAGS=-pipe ./configure --with-stlport=<STLPort_headers_path> To get the complete list of arguments of the "configure" script use the following command : % ./configure --help In the case that you need to rebuild the "configure" script and/or the "Makefile.in" files, execute the "bootstrap" script in the NeL directory : % ./bootstrap Installation ============ 1. Windows installation ----------------------- Not done yet. 2. GNU/Linux installation -------------------------- % make install
