==============================================================================
the zexy external
==============================================================================
outline of this file::
==============================================================================
+ general
+ installation
+ linux
+ w32
+ irix
+ osX
+ using
+ authors
general::
==============================================================================
the zexy external is a collection of externals for miller.s.puckette's
realtime-computermusic-environment called "puredata" (or abbreviated "pd")
this zexy external will be of no use, if you don't have a running version of
pd on your system.
check out for http://pd.iem.at to learn more about pd and how to get it
note: the zexy external is published under the Gnu General Public License
that is included (GnuGPL.txt). some parts of the code are taken directly
from the pd source-code, they, of course, fall under the license pd is
published under.
installation::
==============================================================================
linux :
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
short:
#1> cd src/
#2> make
#3> make install
(this will automatically call autoconf and ./configure if needed (see "long"))
long:
#1> cd src/
#2> autoconf
#3> ./configure
#4> make
#5> make install
this will install the zexy external into /usr/local/lib/pd/externs
(the path can be changed either via the "--prefix"-flag to "configure"
or by editing the makefile
alternatively you can try "make everything" (after ./configure)
note: if you don't want the parallel-port object [lpt]
(e.g.: because you don't have a parallel-port) you can disable it
with "--disable-lpt"
macOS-X:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
see installation/linux
the configure-script should work here too
note on generating dependencies:
on older systems the automatic creation of build dependencies
might fail with following error:
cpp0: invalid option -smart
a simple workaround is to not use the "-E" flag for the preprocessor
try:
make CPP=cc
win32 :
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#1 extract the zexy-0_x.zip to your pd-path (this file should be located
at <mypdpath>/pd/zexy/)
#2 execute the "z_install.bat", this should copy all necessary files
to the correct places
to compile:
+ w/ MSVC use makefile.nt or zexy.dsw;
OR
+ with GCC configure your pd path, eg:
#> ./configure --prefix=/c/program/pd; make; make install
OR
+ cross-compilation for windows on linux using mingw (assumes that the
crosscompiler is "i586-mingw32msvc-cc")
#> ./configure --host=i586-mingw32msvc --with-extension=dll \
--disable-PIC --with-pd=/path/to/win/pd/
#> make CFLAGS="-fno-unit-at-a-time"
notes: configure tries to set the CFLAGS to "-g -O2" if the compiler
accepts this; however, this optimization sometimes generates
binaries that cannot be loaded by pd; it seems that disabling
the "unit-at-a-time" optimization (which gets enabled by "-O2")
is the cause of this problem. turning it off might help
irix :
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
though i have physical access to both SGI's O2s and indys,
i haven't tried to compile the zexy externals there for years.
the configure-script should work here too;
if not, try "make -f makefile.irix"
Good luck !
making pd run with the zexy external::
==============================================================================
make sure, that pd will be looking at this location
(add "-path <mypath>/pd/externs" either to your .pdrc or each time
you execute pd)
make sure, that you somehow load the zexy external (either add "-lib zexy"
(if you advised pd somehow to look at the correct place)
or "-lib <myzexypath>/zexy" to your startup-script (.pdrc or whatever)
or load it via the object "zexy" at runtime
