Version 3.0
February 18, 2006
We've added the ability to build with CMake to simplify building XLisp on your
system. The way that we expect this to work on Linux systems using make
would
be to first make a build directory. For this walkthrough we'll say that we
start in the xlisp directory:
cd ..
mkdir build
cd build
ccmake ../xlisp
So, now we have made a build directory outside of xlisp, so that the build
products don't get strewn all over our pristine source. The ccmake
command is
a curses front end to CMake that I like. From there you can pick the type of
build, then type "g" for generate. This drops you out in a shell prompt, where
it has made makefiles for you (on other platforms, you may have other types of
build files generated). After that you can:
make
# and then, either:
make install
# or
make package
With the CMake file we have in there, it also has a "package" target, which
will most likely result in a gzipped tar file of the build products. It is also
possible to alter the CMakeLists.txt
file to generate other package types,
such as *.rpm
, *.deb
, etc.
