However, <i>getting</i> it there is more -problematic. <b>contrib.acorn.install</b> is an installation -obeyfile which will create a normal Acorn-style library from the -source (ie: with c, h and o folders etc.), but needs the -distribution library to have been unpacked into a location which is -capable of supporting long filenames, even if only temporarily.</p> -<p>My recommendation, until Acorn address this problem properly, is -to use Jason Tribbeck's <a href= -"ftp://ftp.demon.co.uk/pub/mirrors/hensa/micros/arch/riscos/c/c020/longfiles.arc"> -LongFilenames</a>, or any other working system that gives you long -filenames, like a nearby NFS server for instance.</p> -<p>If you are using Longfilenames, even if only temporarily to -install LIBTIFF, unpack the TAR into a RAMDisc which has been -longfilenamed (ie: <tt>*addlongfs ram</tt>) and then install from -there to the hard disk. Unfortunately Longfilenames seems a bit -unhappy about copying a bunch of long-named files across the same -filing system, but is happy going between systems. You'll need to -create a ramdisk of about 2Mb.</p> -<p>Now you can run the installation script I've supplied (in -contrib.acorn), which will automate the process of installing -LIBTIFF as an Acorn-style library. The syntax is as follows:</p> -<p><tt>install <source_dir> <dest_dir></tt></p> -<p>Install will then create <dest_dir> and put the library in -there. For example, having used LongFilenames on the RAMDisk and -unpacked the library into there, you can then type:</p> -<p><tt>Obey RAM::RamDisc0.$.contrib.acorn.install RAM::RamDisc0.$ -ADFS::4.$.LIBTIFF</tt></p> -<p>It doesn't matter if the destination location can cope with long -filenames or not. The filenames will be truncated if necessary -(*Configure Truncate On if you get errors) and all will be -well.</p> -<h3>Compiling LibTIFF:</h3> -<p>Once the LibTIFF folder has been created and the files put -inside, making the library should be just a matter of running -'<b>SetVars</b>' to set the appropriate system variables, then -running '<b>Makefile</b>'.</p> -<p><b>OSLib</b></p> -<p><a href= -"ftp://ftp.acorn.co.uk/pub/riscos/releases/oslib/oslib.arc">OSLib</a> -is a comprehensive API for RISC OS machines, written by Jonathan -Coxhead of Acorn Computers (although OSLib is not an official Acorn -product). Using the OSLib SWI veneers produces code which is more -compact and more efficient than code written using _kernel_swi or -_swi. The Acorn port of LibTIFF can take advantage of this if -present. Edit the Makefile and go to the Static dependencies -section.
