Building kaffe on HP-UX ======================= Author: Dalibor Topic <robilad@kaffe.org> Building on parisc ------------------ This document describes the things that should be considered when you're building kaffe on a parsic-hpux platform. It hasn't been ported yet to Requirements ------------ * A current gcc . I used gcc 3.3.1. Make sure it's not broken, i.e. it doesn't break when compiling programs that include system include files. Otherwise the configure script will break. See http://www.kaffe.org/pipermail/kaffe/2003-September/043871.html for more information on the problems. That was the case on the TestDrive parisc-hpux machine, so I had to build my own gcc. Start out by building your own bintuils, and then rebuild gcc with the fresh binutils. I used binutils 2.14. Limitations ----------- On parisc-hpux, only static builds seem to be possible at the moment. So you need to configure kaffe with --disable-shared. You'll also need GNU make, as HP-UX's make breaks trying to build kaffe. I used GNU make 3.80.
