<!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <meta name="GENERATOR" content="Mozilla/4.77 [en] (Windows NT 5.0; U) [Netscape]"> <title>tcl3270 Build and Install Instructions</title> </head> <body> <h1> tcl3270 Build and Install Instructions</h1> To build <i>tcl3270</i>, type: <pre> ./configure make</pre> To install <i>tcl3270</i> in the default install directory (<tt>/usr/local/bin</tt>), type: <pre> make install</pre> <h2> Notes on the Tcl Library</h2> <i>tcl3270</i> uses Tcl 8.3 by default. It assumes that the header file <tt>tcl.h</tt> has been installed in the directory <tt>/usr/local/include</tt>, and that the Tcl library <tt>libtcl8.3.a</tt> has been installed in the directory <tt>/usr/local/lib</tt>. If you have a different version of Tcl, or it is installed in different directories, you will need to pass additional options to the <tt>configure</tt> script. <p>To use a different version of Tcl, pass the <tt>--with-tcl=</tt> option to <tt>configure</tt>, specifying the other version, e.g: <pre> ./configure --with-tcl=8.2</pre> If you have the Tcl header files or libraries installed in directories other than those selected by default, you must pass these options to <tt>configure</tt> in environment variables. To specify a different header file directory, put a <tt>-I</tt> option in the <tt>CPPFLAGS</tt> environment variable. To specify a different library directory, put a <tt>-L</tt> option in the <tt>LDFLAGS</tt> environment variable. For example (using bash, ksh, or sh): <pre> CPPFLAGS=-I/auto/unsupported/tcl LDFLAGS=-L/auto/unsupported/lib ./configure</pre> Using csh, it's similar: <pre> (setenv CPPFLAGS -I/auto/unsupported/tcl; setenv LDFLAGS -L/auto/unsupported/lib; ./configure)</pre> <i>tcl3270</i> has <b>not</b> been tested with versions of tcl other than 8.2 and 8.3. <h2> Using Extended Tcl (TclX)</h2> <i>tcl3270</i> can also use Extended Tcl (TclX). To use Extended Tcl, pass the <tt>--with-tclx</tt> option to <tt>configure</tt>, e.g.: <blockquote> <pre>./configure --with-tclx</pre> </blockquote> Note that Extended Tcl releases tend to lag behind standard Tcl releases; when this was written, the current release of Extended Tcl was 8.2. So, to build <i>tcl3270</i> with Extended Tcl 8.2, you must have Tcl 8.2 installed on your system, and you must explicitly specify the version of TclX with <tt>configure</tt>: <blockquote> <pre>./configure --with-tclx=8.2</pre> </blockquote> <h2> Notes for Solaris 2.x and Sun's C Compiler</h2> Do not use Sun's BSD-compatibility compiler, <tt>/usr/ucb/cc</tt>. This is good advice in general, but in particular, <i>tcl3270</i> will not build with it. You must have a directory containing <tt>gcc</tt> (preferred) or Sun's standard compiler in your $PATH ahead of <tt>/usr/ucb</tt>. <h2> Summary of <tt>configure</tt> Options</h2> The <i>tcl3270</i> <tt>configure</tt> script accepts the following options: <br> <table BORDER=3 CELLSPACING=3 CELLPADDING=3 > <tr> <td><tt>--help</tt></td> <td>Print a help message.</td> </tr> <tr> <td><tt>--prefix=<i>prefix</i></tt></td> <td>Install architecture-independent files under <i>prefix</i> (defaults to <tt>/usr/local</tt>)</td> </tr> <tr> <td><tt>--exec-prefix=<i>eprefix</i></tt></td> <td>Install architecture-dependent files (executables) under <i>eprefix</i> (defaults to same as <i>prefix</i>)</td> </tr> <tr> <td><tt>--bindir=<i>dir</i></tt></td> <td>Install user executables (<i>tcl3270</i>) in <i>dir</i> (defaults to <i>eprefix</i><tt>/bin</tt>)</td> </tr> <tr> <td><tt>--sysconfdir=<i>dir</i></tt></td> <td>Install configuration files (character sets) in <i>dir</i><tt>/x3270</tt> (defaults to <i>prefix</i><tt>/etc</tt>).</td> </tr> <tr> <td><tt>--with-tcl=<i>version</i></tt></td> <td>Use a different version of the Tcl library. The default is <tt>8.3</tt>.</td> </tr> <tr> <td><tt>--with-tclx</tt> <br><tt>--with-tclx=<i>version</i></tt></td> <td>Use the Extended Tcl library. The TclX library must be the same version as the Tcl library. <br>If an explicit <i>version</i> is specified, this changes the Tcl library version as well.</td> </tr> <tr> <td><tt>--disable-ansi</tt></td> <td>Leave out NVT (ANSI) support. <br>Note that NVT support is required for TN3270E support.</td> </tr> <tr> <td><tt>--disable-apl</tt></td> <td>Leave out APL character support.</td> </tr> <tr> <td><tt>--disable-ft</tt></td> <td>Leave out IND$FILE file transfer support.</td> </tr> <tr> <td><tt>--disable-local-process</tt></td> <td>Leave out local process (connecting to "-e <i>shell_command</i>") support. <br>This will be automatically disabled if the local system does not support the <i>forkpty</i>() library call.</td> </tr> <tr> <td><tt>--disable-printer</tt></td> <td>Leave out printer session (<i>pr3287</i>) support.</td> </tr> <tr> <td><tt>--disable-tn3270e</tt></td> <td>Leave out TN3270E support.</td> </tr> <tr> <td><tt>--disable-trace</tt></td> <td>Leave out tracing support.</td> </tr> </table> <p>Leaving out all of the optional features will result in a smaller binary. </body> </html>
