Build Instructions for BeOS and Haiku NetSurf 13 February 2010
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This document provides instructions for building the BeOS and Haiku version
of NetSurf and provides guidance on obtaining NetSurf's build dependencies.
BeOS NetSurf has been tested on Zeta only for now. There are still some
issues to sort out for other BeOS versions.
There are still pending fixes against SVN before it can be build from BeOS
or Haiku.
Building and executing NetSurf
================================
To build NetSurf on a BeOS or Haiku, provided you have the relevant
build dependencies installed, simply run:
$ make
If that produces errors, you probably don't have some of NetSurf's build
dependencies installed. See "Obtaining NetSurf's dependencies" below. You
may need to "make clean" before attempting to build after installing the
dependencies. Also note BeOS has an old make command that won't work, see
below.
Obtaining NetSurf's dependencies
==================================
Many of NetSurf's dependencies are either installed or available for BeOS and
Haiku. The remainder must be installed manually.
The NetSurf project's libraries
---------------------------------
The NetSurf project has developed several libraries which are required by
the browser. To fetch each of these libraries, run the appropriate commands
from the Docs/LIBRARIES file.
To build and install these libraries, simply enter each of their directories
and run:
$ make install
| Note: We advise enabling iconv() support in libparserutils, which vastly
| increases the number of supported character sets. To do this,
| create a file called Makefile.config.override in the libparserutils
| directory, containing the following line:
|
| CFLAGS += -DWITH_ICONV_FILTER
|
| For more information, consult the libparserutils README file.
TODO: add some more here.
rc
----
Building NetSurf needs the Haiku resource compiler (rc), that allows
importing files from resource definitions (.rdef).
$ cd <haiku-trunk-directory>
$ TARGET_PLATFORM=r5 jam -q rc
$ cp generated/objects/dano/x86/release/tools/rc/rc /boot/home/config/bin/
GNU make 3.81
---------------
BeOS has an old make tool, which won't work when building NetSurf.
Haiku has 3.81 which is the one that works. For BeOS, one has to replace
the original make with one built from the Haiku tree, or install it as gmake:
$ cd <haiku-trunk-directory>
$ TARGET_PLATFORM=r5 jam -q make
$ cp generated/objects/r5/x86/release/bin/make/make /boot/home/config/bin/gmake
cURL
------
NetSurf uses cURL to fetch files from the network.
There is a patch against the official version on HaikuPorts.
TODO
libpng
--------
NetSurf uses libPNG to display PNG files.
It should build just fine on BeOS.
libjpeg
---------
NetSurf uses libjpeg to display JPEG files.
It should already be available in your dev kit.
OpenSSL
----------
NetSurf uses OpenSSL for encrypted transfers.
General requirements
----------------------
There is currently an issue on stdbool.h (unsigned char bool vs enum bool)
which needs to be fixed, for now one can use the Haiku version of the header
and copy it over the gcc-provided one.
$ cd <haiku-trunk-directory>
$ cp headers/build/gcc-2.95.3/stdbool.h /boot/develop/tools/gnupro/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-beos/2.95.3-beos-060710/include/stdbool.h
NetSurf might build on BeOS R5 but probably won't work on anything else than
BONE.
This will pull in loads of things, like all the GTK dev libraries, the PNG
and JPEG libraries, colour management libraries, zlib, OpenSSL etc that
NetSurf also depends on.
