1 Installation
|
||
**************
|
||
|
||
1.1 Introduction
|
||
================
|
||
|
||
This file documents the installation of the GNUstep Backend Library,
|
||
‘gnustep-back’. If you are installing this package as part of the
|
||
GNUstep core package, read the file GNUstep-HOWTO for more complete
|
||
instructions on how to install the entire GNUstep package (including
|
||
this library). GNUstep-HOWTO is located at <http://www.gnustep.org>
|
||
|
||
You must have installed gnustep-gui before installing this library.
|
||
|
||
1.2 Configuration
|
||
=================
|
||
|
||
Configuration is performed by running the ‘configure’ program at a shell
|
||
prompt. You may want to use some of the optional arguments to the
|
||
‘configure’ program. Type ‘configure --help’ for a list. GNUstep
|
||
specific options are at the end of this list (if any).
|
||
|
||
The backend comes with several different window server and graphics
|
||
drawing implementations. If you do nothing, the default ones will be
|
||
chosen. You can can change this using configure. For instance, to
|
||
choose the art graphical drawing implementation, run
|
||
|
||
configure --enable-graphics=art
|
||
|
||
Type ‘configure --help’ for a list of graphical drawing
|
||
implementations.
|
||
|
||
You can also change the name of the backend when configuring it.
|
||
This is convienient if you want to have a different backend with
|
||
different configurations. For instance, to create an xlib and and art
|
||
backend, you could do this:
|
||
|
||
configure --enable-graphics=xlib --with-name=xlib
|
||
make install
|
||
|
||
make distclean
|
||
configure --enable-graphics=art --with-name=art
|
||
make install
|
||
|
||
Before running an application, choose one backend using the defaults
|
||
program:
|
||
|
||
defaults write NSGlobalDomain GSBackend libgnustep-xlib
|
||
|
||
1.3 Compilation
|
||
===============
|
||
|
||
To compile this library, type make. After this is complete, type make
|
||
install (make sure you are the root user). Some additional options you
|
||
can use with make are ‘debug=yes’ to make a debugging version of the
|
||
library and ‘shared=no’ to make a static version of the library. See
|
||
the gstep-make package for more information on these options.
|
||
|
||
