Build newLISP on OS2
|
|
|
|
The quickest way to compile the OS2 version is by use of the gcc environment
|
|
package by Paul Smedley (smedley.info). Install the GCC 335 build and folow
|
|
the instructions.
|
|
|
|
If you want a different GCC released by i.e. Paul Smedley then install that
|
|
beside the gcc 335 release. It is described how to do that. You can of course
|
|
get gcc itself from ftp.netlabs.org too.
|
|
|
|
After the "make os2" from within your newlisp-x.x.x release directory you can
|
|
copy manualy the newlisp.exe to a location, "make install" can be used to but
|
|
the "guiserver" for OS/2 does not exist as java 1.5 is not ported yet to OS/2.
|
|
"make uninstall" doesn't therefore work correctly either (this will be changed).
|
|
|
|
The readline library should be able to compile but is not included currently
|
|
in the makefile_os2 yet (working on it). The latest readline unix port for
|
|
OS/2 must be obtained v5.2. But give it a try using the configure-alt script,
|
|
and contact Ted if it doesn't work.
|
|
|
|
There are some differences when using newlisp.exe in an OS/2 enviroment,
|
|
as you are working in a cmd.exe environment or bash. I'll try to define those.
|
|
|
|
Known issues in newlisp/2:
|
|
|
|
The newlisp functions 'spawn & 'share don't work, as the OS/2 gcc port doesn't
|
|
have yet a good alternative for mmap. 'import is under investigation as it
|
|
behaves strange with gcc 335.
|
|
|
|
newlisp/2 is tested and built on Ecomstation Rc2.
