----------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -Build scripts -============= - -Depending on platform the build process is run with -build.sh -or -build.bat - - -Arguments: PLATFORM SYSTEM COMPILER {TARGET} {definitions} - -PLATFORM: win / lnx / mac -SYSTEM: pd / max -COMPILER: msvc / gcc / mingw / cygwin / bcc / icc - -TARGET: (default is all) - all, build - build package in default style - install - install package -

- -Additional definitions can be passed to the make program -like - "PKGINFO=info.txt" (defines new filename for package information) -or - "PKGINFO=" (package information will be skipped - only for config target) - -For more macro names, see below - - -For each of the supported combinations of PLATFORM, SYSTEM and COMPILER -a MAKE program has been chosen, normally the one that comes with the compiler. - -For gcc it is GNU make (gnumake) -For msvc it is Microsoft make (nmake) -For bcc it is Borland make (bmake) - - - -Package info (package.txt) -========================== - -Package information contains vital information for the build process. -Obligatory are only: - -NAME: resulting filename of the build product -SRCS: list of source files - - -Normally also used are: - -HDRS: used header files, which SRCS files are dependent upon -SRCDIR: source folder (relative to project folder), default is . - - -Other settings: - -PRECOMPILE: prefix header file (in SRCDIR) for all source files, - will be precompiled if supported by the compiler - -BUILDCLASS: can currently be flext or ext, default is ext. - flext will build the flext system - ext will build a flext-based external - -BUILDMODE: release or debug, default is release - if release, optimization flags will be used - if debug, debug information will be generated - if profile, profiling information will be generated (with debug info and optimization) - -BUILDTYPE: single, multi or shared, default is single - if single, it will be linked against the single-threaded static flext library - if multi, it will be linked against the multi-threaded static flext library - if shared, it will be linked against the shared flext library - -BUILDDIR: relative folder with additional build settings - - - -Additional build settings (BUILDDIR) -==================================== - -If BUILDDIR is defined, all PLATFORM-SYSTEM-COMPILER combinations to support -must are mirrored by the respective .def and .inc files in the BUILDDIR. - - -config-PLATFORM.def files (e.g. config-lnx.def) : - - These files can contain additional macro definitions, that are private - to the project. - The definitions should be strictly in the form SETTING=value, without any - make-specific macros etc. - The .def files work as templates that get copied to a user-editable - config.txt file when the build process is first started. - - -MAKE-PLATFORM-COMPILER.inc files -(e.g. gnumake-lnx-gcc.inc or nmake-win-msvc.inc): - - These files (which are no considered to be edited by the user) can contain - specific modifications to compiler flags, include file paths etc. - - For gnumake this would e.g. be - INCPATH += -I/usr/local/include/python2.3 - - for nmake or bmake e.g. - INCPATH = $(INCPATH) -I"c:\program files\Python2.3\include" - - -Structure of build system -========================= - -The build system has several levels of information, which are evaluated in the -following order (see also buildsys/MAKE-sub.mak) - -Project level: -- PKGINFO file (e.g. package.txt) -- USRCONFIG file (e.g. config.txt) -- USRMAKE file (e.g. build/gnumake-lnx-gcc.inc) - -General definitions (in buildsys): - -- MAKE.inc (e.g. buildsys/gnumake.inc) - contains evaluation of flext library name, build directory etc. -- MAKE-BUILDCLASS.inc (e.g. buildsys/gnumake-ext.inc) - contains some more flag settings - -Real-time-system-dependent definitions (in buildsys/PLATFORM/SYSTEM): - -- MAKE-COMPILER.inc (e.g. buildsys/lnx/pd/gnumake-gcc.inc) - contains general real-time-system dependent info (e.g. paths, FLEXT_SYS setting) -- MAKE-COMPILER-BUILDCLASS.inc (e.g. buildsys/lnx/pd/gnumake-gcc-ext.inc) - contains specific real-time-system dependent info (e.g. extension of binary) - -Platform-dependent definitions (in buildsys/PLATFORM): - -- MAKE-COMPILER.inc (e.g. buildsys/lnx/gnumake-gcc.inc) - contains general platform-specific flags -- MAKE-COMPILER-BUILDCLASS.inc (e.g. buildsys/lnx/gnumake-gcc-ext.inc) - contains the actual make targets (_build_,_clean_ and _install_) - - -Macro names -=============== - -PKGINFO - filename for package information (must reside in project folder) - -UFLAGS - user defined compiler flags -OFLAGS - user defined optimization flags (not used in debug builds) - -CFLAGS - compiler flags -LDFLAGS - linker flags - -INCPATH - include file path (must come with e.g. -I ) -LIBPATH - library path (must come with e.g. -L ) - -LIBS - libraries to link in (must come with e.g. -l ) |
