-INTERFACE DEFINITION LANGUAGE INSTALLATION GUIDE
--==============================================-
-
-INTRODUCTION
-
-This file describes the installation process for OMG_IDL_CFE version 1.3.
-This file explains how to:
-
-- install the source code
-- modify the sources to customize them for different configurations
-- modify the sources to implement your own back end
-
-TESTED CONFIGURATIONS
-
-This release has been tested and is believed to operate correctly on:
-- SunPro Sparcworks 2.x and 3.0 on SunOS 4.1.x
-- SunPro Sparcworks 2.x and 3.0 on Solaris 2.3
-- g++ 2.5.8 on SunOS 4.1.x
-- g++ 2.5.8 on Solaris 2.3
-
-This is the first release of OMG IDL CFE which is preconfigured to compile
-correctly for Solaris 2.x and with SunPro SparcWorks compilers.
-
-CUSTOMIZATION
-
-The release contains a file idl_make_vars in the current directory, which
-is included in each Makefile. This file defines all the customizable
-variables for the CFE.
-
-OSV should be set to a string denoting the operating system upon which you
-wish to build the CFE. The CFE as shipped is preconfigured to compile
-correctly on Solaris 2.x (OSV=SOLARIS2), and has also been tested on SunOS
-4.1.x (OSV=SUNOS4). It contains code donated by HP which enables it to be
-compiled on Apollo Domain systems (OSV=apollo) and HPUX systems (OSV=hpux),
-but these two configurations have not been tested.
-
-C++ and CCC should be set to identify the C++ compiler you will use to
-compile this release. Their values should be identical. Both are set to
-address differences between various make programs - some predefine CCC,
-others use C++ to denote the C++ compiler. The possible values are CC
-(which uses the Sparcworks compilers on SunOS 4.1 and Solaris 2.3) and g++,
-which uses the installed version of GNU C++.
-
-CCFLAGS should be set to a list of flags to pass to the C++ compiler. As
-shipped, this list is -g. NOTE: We have not extensively tested the release
-with optimization turned on.
-
-CPP_FLAGS should be set to a list of flags to pass to the C++ preprocessor.
-Use this variable to enable or disable specific customizations you make to
-the BE or CFE sources.
-
-YFLAGS should be set to a list of flags to pass to the Yacc program. As
-shipped, the list is -d -t, which causes Yacc to generate y.tab.h and
-y.tab.c files.
-
-LEXFLAGS should be set to a list of flags to pass to the Lex program. As
-shipped, the list -t.
-
-RANLIB should be set to the location of the ranlib program on your system.
-As shipped this is ranlib. If your system has no ranlib you can set this
-variable to ':' or /bin/true. As shipped the variable is preset to
-/bin/true since Solaris 2.x does not use ranlib.
-
-AR should be set to the location of the ar program on your system. As
-shipped this is ar. If your system has a different mechanism for creating
-libraries, you should modify the value of this variable accordingly.
-
-ARFLAGS should be set to the flags to be passed to the ar program. As
-shipped this is 'crv'.
-
-INSTALLATION
-
-a. Disk space requirements
-
-This distribution requires approximately 350 KBytes when compressed. When
-uncompressed, untarred and compiled, approximately 10 MBytes of disk space
-are consumed on a Sun 4.
-
-b. Getting the software
-
-Use anonymous FTP to omg.org and supply your e-mail address as password.
-Change directories to pub/OMG_IDL_CFE_1.3, set bin and get the compressed
-tar file OMG_IDL_CFE_1.3.tar.Z.
-
-The distribution may, in the future, be made available from other archives
-on the Internet. However, omg.org will always have the most up-to-date
-version of this software.
-
-After transferring this file, uncompress it and untar it in a directory of
-your choice.
-
-c. Compiling it
-
-If you are using a Sparcstation running Solaris 2.x and have the SunPro
-Sparcworks compilers installed, you may directly install the software. If
-your hardware or operating system configurations are different, read and
-follow the instructions in the previous section first.
-
-At the root directory of the release, issue
-
- % make
-
-or
-
- % make all
-
-This will compile the provided sources and the sources found in the be
-directory. Executing this make target causes 'make all' to be invoked in
-each subdirectory, resulting in building the libraries for each component
-and finally a link step producing an executable IDL compiler.
-
-In order to make only the compiler front end components, without compiling
-the sources found in the be directory and without building an executable,
-issue
-
- % make libs
-
-This will build the libraries in the ast, fe, util, driver and narrow
-directories. To build only the be, issue
-
- % make be
-
-To build all libraries without creating an executable, issue
-
- % make all_libs
-
-To remove all files created by the build process, issue
-
- % make clean
-
-This will not remove any files created by Yacc and Lex, because you may be
-using the ones provided in the distribution (see below).
-
-d. Yacc and Lex
-
-Some installations may not have a C++ aware Yacc and Lex processor. For
-these installations, we have included the output of yacc and lex in the
-release. If you need to use these files to build the release because you
-don't have access to a C++ capable Yacc or Lex, go to the "fe" directory,
-issue the command:
-
- % touch lex.yy.cc y.tab.cc y.tab.hh
-
-This will ensure that the processed files appear to be newer than the
-source files they were produced from and will cause "make" to skip their
-production.
-
-NOTE: The files provided in the distribution have been produced on Solaris
-2.3 and may contain OS-specific #include directives. If you intend to use
-these files, you may have to edit them to make them work in your
-environment. The provided files are known to compile cleanly without
-modification with both SunPro Sparcworks compilers and GNU C++ on both
-SunOS 4.1 and Solaris 2.3. We have not tested the grammar and lexer input
-files with bison or flex.
-
-IMPLEMENTING A BACK END
-
-To implement your own back end, you can start with the provided sources in
-the be directory and modify them. The Makefile understands the 'make all'
-target and will generate libbe.a in the demo_be directory. As set up, the
-variable CPP_FLAGS allows you to place include files either in the current
-directory or in the include directory. Alternatively, you can place your
-include files in a new directory and modify CPP_FLAGS to cause the C++
-preprocessor to search this new directory for referenced include files, by
-adding a new -I directive.
-
-Additional detail on the structure and function of back ends, and on the
-protocol which a back end must implement, are found in the document
-entitled WRITING_A_BE.
