|
| +
|
| +1.: DJGPP specific changes.
|
| + =======================
|
| +
|
| + The DJGPP port of Bison offers LFN and SFN support depending on which
|
| + OS it is running. If LFN support is available or not is determinated at
|
| + run time. If LFN support is available (DOS session under Win9X, Win2K,
|
| + WinXP, etc.) the standard posix file name extensions will be used.
|
| + These are: y.tab.c, y.tab.c++, y.tab.h, y.output, etc. If only SFN
|
| + support is available (plain DOS), then the standard MSDOS short file
|
| + names will be used. These are: y_tab.c, y_tab.h, y.out, etc.
|
| + It should be noticed that this bison version needs the m4 program as
|
| + back end to generate the parser file (y.tab.c etc.) from the skeleton
|
| + files. This implies that m4 must always be installed to get bison
|
| + working. m4 will use a couple of m4 scripts that will be installed in
|
| + /dev/env/DJDIR/share/bison and shall not be removed.
|
| + It should also be noticed that the skeleton files bison.simple and
|
| + bison.hairy are no longer supported. This applies also to the environ-
|
| + ment variables BISON_HAIRY and BISON_SIMPLE. Those variables are *no*
|
| + longer honored at all.
|
| + The kind of skeleton file bison.hairy is no longer supported at all.
|
| + The skeleton file bison.simple is now called yacc.c and is an m4 script.
|
| + The other two skeleton files supported by this bison version are glr.c
|
| + and lalr1.cc. The first one is a generalized LR C parser based on
|
| + Bison's LALR(1) tables and the second one is a experimental C++ parser
|
| + class.
|
| + As has been told before, bison uses m4 to generate the parser file.
|
| + This is done by forking and using pipes for the IPC. MSDOS does not
|
| + support this functionality so this has been reproduced in the usual
|
| + way by redirecting stdin and stdout of bison and m4 to temporary files
|
| + and processing these files in sequence.
|
| + It should be noticed that due to the great amount of file names that do
|
| + not cleanly map to 8.3 file names, you will need an OS with LFN support
|
| + to configure and compile the sources. On Win98 this implies that the
|
| + generation of numeric tails for 8.3 file name aliases must be enabled
|
| + or the compilation will fail.
|
| +
|
| +
|
| + Please **read** the docs.
|
| +
|
| +
|
| +2.: Installing the binary package.
|
| + ==============================
|
| +
|
| +2.1.: Copy the binary distribution into the top DJGPP installation directory,
|
| + just unzip it preserving the directory structure running *ONE* of the
|
| + following commands:
|
| + unzip32 bsn@PACKAGE_VERSION@b.zip or
|
| + djtarx bsn@PACKAGE_VERSION@b.zip or
|
| + pkunzip -d bsn@PACKAGE_VERSION@b.zip
|
| +
|
| +
|
| +
|
| +3.: Building the binaries from sources.
|
| + ===================================
|
| +
|
| +3.1.: Create a temporary directory and copy the source package into the
|
| + directory. If you download the source distribution from one of the
|
| + DJGPP sites, just unzip it preserving the directory structure
|
| + running *ONE* of the following commands:
|
| + unzip32 bsn@PACKAGE_VERSION@s.zip or
|
| + djtarx bsn@PACKAGE_VERSION@s.zip or
|
| + pkunzip -d bsn@PACKAGE_VERSION@s.zip
|
| + and proceed to the paragraph 3.3, below.
|
| +
|
| +3.2.: Source distributions downloaded from one of the GNU FTP sites need
|
| + some more work to unpack, if LFN support is not available. If LFN is
|
| + available then you can extract the source files from the archive with
|
| + any unzip program and proceed to the paragraph 3.3, below. Any file
|
| + name issue will be handled by the the DJGPP configuration files.
|
| + To unpack the source distribution on SFN systems, first, you MUST use
|
| + the `djunpack' batch file to unzip the package. That is because some
|
| + file names in the official distributions need to be changed to avoid
|
| + problems on the various platforms supported by DJGPP.
|
| + `djunpack' invokes the `djtar' program (that is part of the basic DJGPP
|
| + development kit) to rename these files on the fly given a file with
|
| + name mappings; the distribution includes a file `djgpp/fnchange.lst'
|
| + with the necessary mappings. So you need first to retrieve that batch
|
| + file, and then invoke it to unpack the distribution. Here's how:
|
| +
|
| + djtar -x -p -o bison-@VERSION@/djgpp/djunpack.bat bison-@VERSION@.tar.gz > djunpack.bat
|
| + djunpack bison-@VERSION@.tar.gz
|
| +
|
| + (The name of the distribution archive and the leading directory of the
|
| + path to `djunpack.bat' in the distribution will be different for
|
| + versions of Bison other than @VERSION@.)
|
| +
|
| + If the argument to `djunpack.bat' include leading directories, it MUST
|
| + be given with the DOS-style backslashes; Unix-style forward slashes
|
| + will NOT work.
|
| +
|
| + If the distribution comes as a .tar.bz2 archive, and your version of
|
| + `djtar' doesn't support bzip2 decompression, you need to unpack it as
|
| + follows:
|
| +
|
| + bnzip2 bison-@VERSION@.tar.bz2
|
| + djtar -x -p -o bison-@VERSION@/djgpp/djunpack.bat bison-@VERSION@.tar > djunpack.bat
|
| + djunpack bison-@VERSION@.tar
|
| +
|
| +3.3.: To build the binaries you will need the following binary packages:
|
| + djdev203.zip (or a later but NOT a prior version)
|
| + bsh204b.zip (or a later but NOT a prior version)
|
| + gccNNNb.zip, gppNNN.zip, bnuNNNb.zip, makNNNb.zip, filNNNb.zip,
|
| + perlNNNb.zip, shlNNNb.zip, txtNNNb.zip, txiNNNb.zip, grepNNNb.zip,
|
| + sedNNNb.zip and m4NNN.zip
|
| +
|
| + If you want to run the check you will need also:
|
| + difNNNb.zip
|
| +
|
| + NNN represents the latest version number of the binary packages. All
|
| + this packages can be found in the /v2gnu directory of any
|
| + ftp.delorie.com mirror.
|
| + You will need bsh204b.zip or later and *NOT* a prior version or
|
| + the build will fail. The same applies to djdev203.zip. Please note
|
| + that Bison requires m4-144b.zip or later to work properly.
|
| +
|
| +3.4.: If for some reason you want to reconfigure the package cd into the top
|
| + srcdir (bison-@TREE_VERSION@) and run the following commands:
|
| + del djgpp\config.cache
|
| + make clean
|
| + djgpp\config
|
| +
|
| + Please note that you *MUST* delete the config.cache file in the djgpp
|
| + subdir or you will not really reconfigure the sources because the
|
| + configuration informations will be read from the cache file instead
|
| + of being newly computed.
|
| + To build the programs in a directory other than where the sources are,
|
| + you must add the parameter that specifies the source directory,
|
| + e.g:
|
| + x:\src\gnu\bison-@TREE_VERSION@\djgpp\config x:/src/gnu/bison-@TREE_VERSION@
|
| +
|
| + Lets assume you want to build the binaries in a directory placed on a
|
| + different drive (z:\build in this case) from where the sources are,
|
| + then you will run the following commands:
|
| + z:
|
| + md \build
|
| + cd \build
|
| + x:\src\gnu\bison-@TREE_VERSION@\djgpp\config x:/src/gnu/bison-@TREE_VERSION@
|
| +
|
| + The order of the options and the srcdir option does not matter. You
|
| + *MUST* use forward slashes to specify the source directory.
|
| +
|
| + The batch file will set same environment variables, make MSDOS specific
|
| + modifications to the Makefile.in's and supply all other needed options
|
| + to the configure script.
|
| +
|
| +3.5.: To compile the package run from the top srcdir the command:
|
| + make
|
| +
|
| +3.6.: Now you can run the tests if you like. From the top srcdir run the
|
| + command:
|
| + make check
|
| +
|
| + No test should fail but the tests #131 (Doxygen Public Documentation)
|
| + and #132 (Doxygen Private Documentation) will be skipped. Please note
|
| + that the testsuite only works with LFN available. On plain DOS, most
|
| + of the tests will fail due to invalid DOS names.
|
| +
|
| +3.7.: To install the binaries, header, library, catalogs, and info docs
|
| + run the following command from the top srcdir:
|
| + make install
|
| +
|
| + This will install the products into your DJGPP installation tree given
|
| + by the default prefix "/dev/env/DJDIR". If you prefer to install them
|
| + into some other directory you will have to set prefix to the appropiate
|
| + value:
|
| + make install prefix=z:/some/other/place
|
| +

|
| + Send suggestions and bug reports concerning the DJGPP port to
|
| + comp.os.msdos.djgpp or <djgpp@delorie.com>.
