Brief Installation Instructions ===========================================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To build Guile on unix, there are two basic steps:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Type "./configure", to configure the package for your system.
|
|
||||||
2. Type "make", to build the package.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Generic instructions for configuring and compiling GNU distributions
|
|
||||||
are included below. (For instructions how to install SLIB, the scheme
|
|
||||||
procedure library, see below.)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Guile can use a number of external packages such as `readline' when
|
|
||||||
they are available. Guile expects to be able to find these packages
|
|
||||||
in the default compiler setup, it does not try to make any special
|
|
||||||
arrangements itself. For example, for the `readline' package, Guile
|
|
||||||
expects to be able to find the include file <readline/readline.h>,
|
|
||||||
without passing any special `-I' options to the compiler.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you installed an external package, and you used the --prefix
|
|
||||||
installation option to install it somewhere else than /usr/local, you
|
|
||||||
must arrange for your compiler to find it by default. If that
|
|
||||||
compiler is gcc, one convenient way of making such arrangements is to
|
|
||||||
use the --with-local-prefix option during installation, naming the
|
|
||||||
same directory as you used in the --prefix option of the package. In
|
|
||||||
particular, it is not good enough to use the same --prefix option when
|
|
||||||
you install gcc and the package; you need to use the
|
|
||||||
--with-local-prefix option as well. See the gcc documentation for
|
|
||||||
more details.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
||||||
Special Instructions For Some Systems =====================================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We would like Guile to build on all systems using the simple
|
|
||||||
instructions above, but it seems that a few systems still need special
|
|
||||||
treatment. If you can send us fixes for these problems, we'd be
|
|
||||||
grateful.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
SunOS 4.1: Guile's shared library support seems to be confused, but
|
|
||||||
hey; shared libraries are confusing. You may need to configure
|
|
||||||
Guile with a command like:
|
|
||||||
./configure --disable-shared
|
|
||||||
For more information on `--disable-shared', see below, "Flags
|
|
||||||
Accepted by Configure".
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
HP/UX: GCC 2.7.2 (and maybe other versions) have trouble creating
|
|
||||||
shared libraries if they depend on any non-shared libraries. GCC
|
|
||||||
seems to have other problems as well. To work around this, we
|
|
||||||
suggest you configure Guile to use the system's C compiler:
|
|
||||||
CC=cc ./configure
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
NetBSD: Perry Metzger says, "Guile will build under NetBSD only using
|
|
||||||
gmake -- the native make will not work. (gmake is in our package
|
|
||||||
system, so this will not be a problem when we packagize 1.3.)"
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Flags Accepted by Configure ===============================================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you run the configure script with no arguments, it should examine
|
|
||||||
your system and set things up appropriately. However, there are a few
|
|
||||||
switches specific to Guile you may find useful in some circumstances.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
--enable-maintainer-mode
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you have automake, autoconf, and libtool installed on your
|
|
||||||
system, this switch causes configure to generate Makefiles which
|
|
||||||
know how to automatically regenerate configure scripts, makefiles,
|
|
||||||
and headers, when they are out of date. The HACKING file says which
|
|
||||||
versions of those tools you will need.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
--with-threads --- Build with thread support
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Build a Guile executable and library that supports cooperative
|
|
||||||
threading. If you use this switch, Guile will also build and
|
|
||||||
install the QuickThreads non-preemptive threading library,
|
|
||||||
libqthreads, which you will need to link into your programs after
|
|
||||||
libguile. When you use `guile-config', you will pick up all
|
|
||||||
neccessary linker flags automatically.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Cooperative threads are not yet thoroughly tested; once they are,
|
|
||||||
they will be enabled by default. The interaction with blocking I/O
|
|
||||||
is pretty ad hoc at the moment. In our experience, bugs in the
|
|
||||||
thread support do not affect you if you don't actually use threads.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
--with-modules --- Specify statically linked `modules'
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Guile can dynamically load `plugin modules' during runtime, using
|
|
||||||
facilities provided by libtool. Not all platforms support this,
|
|
||||||
however. On these platforms, you can statically link the plugin
|
|
||||||
modules into libguile when Guile itself is build. XXX - how does
|
|
||||||
one specify the modules?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
--enable-deprecated=LEVEL --- Control the inclusion of deprecated features.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can select between different behaviours via the LEVEL argument:
|
|
||||||
a value of "no" will omit all deprecated features and you will get
|
|
||||||
"undefined reference", "variable unbound" or similar errors when you
|
|
||||||
try to use them. All other values will include all deprecated
|
|
||||||
features. The LEVEL argument is used to determine the default value
|
|
||||||
for the environment variable GUILE_WARN_DEPRECATED. See the README
|
|
||||||
for more information.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The default is to get a vague warning at program exit if deprecated
|
|
||||||
features were used:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
--enable-deprecated=yes
|
|
||||||
--enable-deprecated=summary
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To get a detailed warning at first use of a deprecated feature:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
--enable-deprecated=detailed
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To get no warnings:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
--enable-deprecated=shutup
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To omit deprecated features completely and irrevokably:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
--enable-deprecated=no
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
--disable-shared --- Do not build shared libraries.
|
|
||||||
--disable-static --- Do not build static libraries.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Normally, both static and shared libraries will be built if your
|
|
||||||
system supports them.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
--enable-debug-freelist --- Enable freelist debugging.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This enables a debugging version of SCM_NEWCELL(), and also
|
|
||||||
registers an extra primitive, the setter
|
|
||||||
`gc-set-debug-check-freelist!'.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Configure with the --enable-debug-freelist option to enable the
|
|
||||||
gc-set-debug-check-freelist! primitive, and then use:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
(gc-set-debug-check-freelist! #t) # turn on checking of the freelist
|
|
||||||
(gc-set-debug-check-freelist! #f) # turn off checking
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Checking of the freelist forces a traversal of the freelist and a
|
|
||||||
garbage collection before each allocation of a cell. This can slow
|
|
||||||
down the interpreter dramatically, so the setter should be used to
|
|
||||||
turn on this extra processing only when necessary.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
--enable-debug-malloc --- Enable malloc debugging.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Include code for debugging of calls to scm_must_malloc/realloc/free.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Checks that
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. objects freed by scm_must_free has been mallocated by scm_must_malloc
|
|
||||||
2. objects reallocated by scm_must_realloc has been allocated by
|
|
||||||
scm_must_malloc
|
|
||||||
3. reallocated objects are reallocated with the same what string
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
But, most importantly, it records the number of allocated objects of
|
|
||||||
each kind. This is useful when searching for memory leaks.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A Guile compiled with this option provides the primitive
|
|
||||||
`malloc-stats' which returns an alist with pairs of kind and the
|
|
||||||
number of objects of that kind.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
--enable-guile-debug --- Include internal debugging functions
|
|
||||||
--disable-arrays --- omit array and uniform array support
|
|
||||||
--disable-posix --- omit posix interfaces
|
|
||||||
--disable-networking --- omit networking interfaces
|
|
||||||
--disable-regex --- omit regular expression interfaces
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
Using Guile Without Installing It =========================================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you want to run Guile without installing it, set the environment
|
|
||||||
variable `GUILE_LOAD_PATH' to a colon-separated list of directories,
|
|
||||||
including the directory containing this INSTALL file. If you used a
|
|
||||||
separate build directory, you'll need to include the build directory
|
|
||||||
in the path as well.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For example, suppose the Guile distribution unpacked into a directory
|
|
||||||
called `/home/jimb/guile-snap' (so the full name of this INSTALL file
|
|
||||||
would be `/home/jimb/guile-snap/INSTALL'). Then you might say, if
|
|
||||||
you're using Bash or any other Bourne shell variant,
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
export GUILE_LOAD_PATH=/home/jimb/guile-snap
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
or if you're using CSH or one of its variants:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
setenv GUILE_LOAD_PATH /home/jimb/guile-snap
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Installing SLIB ===========================================================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In order to use SLIB from Guile you basically only need to put the
|
|
||||||
`slib' directory _in_ one of the directories on Guile's load path.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The standard installation is:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Obtain slib from http://www-swiss.ai.mit.edu/~jaffer/SLIB.html
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. Put it in Guile's data directory, that is the directory printed when
|
|
||||||
you type
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
guile-config info pkgdatadir
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
at the shell prompt. This is normally `/usr/local/share/guile', so the
|
|
||||||
directory will normally have full path `/usr/local/share/guile/slib'.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3. Start guile as a user with write access to the data directory and type
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
(use-modules (ice-9 slib))
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
at the Guile prompt. This will generate the slibcat catalog next to
|
|
||||||
the slib directory.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
SLIB's `require' is provided by the Guile module (ice-9 slib).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Example:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
(use-modules (ice-9 slib))
|
|
||||||
(require 'primes)
|
|
||||||
(prime? 7)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Generic Instructions for Building Auto-Configured Packages ================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for
|
|
||||||
various system-dependent variables used during compilation. It uses
|
|
||||||
those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory of the package.
|
|
||||||
It may also create one or more `.h' files containing system-dependent
|
|
||||||
definitions. Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status' that
|
|
||||||
you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, a file
|
|
||||||
`config.cache' that saves the results of its tests to speed up
|
|
||||||
reconfiguring, and a file `config.log' containing compiler output
|
|
||||||
(useful mainly for debugging `configure').
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try
|
|
||||||
to figure out how `configure' could check whether to do them, and mail
|
|
||||||
diffs or instructions to the address given in the `README' so they can
|
|
||||||
be considered for the next release. If at some point `config.cache'
|
|
||||||
contains results you don't want to keep, you may remove or edit it.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The file `configure.in' is used to create `configure' by a program
|
|
||||||
called `autoconf'. You only need `configure.in' if you want to change
|
|
||||||
it or regenerate `configure' using a newer version of `autoconf'.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The simplest way to compile this package is:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type
|
|
||||||
`./configure' to configure the package for your system. If you're
|
|
||||||
using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type
|
|
||||||
`sh ./configure' instead to prevent `csh' from trying to execute
|
|
||||||
`configure' itself.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Running `configure' takes awhile. While running, it prints some
|
|
||||||
messages telling which features it is checking for.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. Type `make' to compile the package.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3. Optionally, type `make check' to run any self-tests that come with
|
|
||||||
the package.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
4. Type `make install' to install the programs and any data files and
|
|
||||||
documentation.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
|
|
||||||
source code directory by typing `make clean'. To also remove the
|
|
||||||
files that `configure' created (so you can compile the package for
|
|
||||||
a different kind of computer), type `make distclean'. There is
|
|
||||||
also a `make maintainer-clean' target, but that is intended mainly
|
|
||||||
for the package's developers. If you use it, you may have to get
|
|
||||||
all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came
|
|
||||||
with the distribution.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Compilers and Options
|
|
||||||
=====================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Some systems require unusual options for compilation or linking that
|
|
||||||
the `configure' script does not know about. You can give `configure'
|
|
||||||
initial values for variables by setting them in the environment. Using
|
|
||||||
a Bourne-compatible shell, you can do that on the command line like
|
|
||||||
this:
|
|
||||||
CC=c89 CFLAGS=-O2 LIBS=-lposix ./configure
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Or on systems that have the `env' program, you can do it like this:
|
|
||||||
env CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include LDFLAGS=-s ./configure
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Compiling For Multiple Architectures
|
|
||||||
====================================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can compile the package for more than one kind of computer at the
|
|
||||||
same time, by placing the object files for each architecture in their
|
|
||||||
own directory. To do this, you must use a version of `make' that
|
|
||||||
supports the `VPATH' variable, such as GNU `make'. `cd' to the
|
|
||||||
directory where you want the object files and executables to go and run
|
|
||||||
the `configure' script. `configure' automatically checks for the
|
|
||||||
source code in the directory that `configure' is in and in `..'.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you have to use a `make' that does not supports the `VPATH'
|
|
||||||
variable, you have to compile the package for one architecture at a time
|
|
||||||
in the source code directory. After you have installed the package for
|
|
||||||
one architecture, use `make distclean' before reconfiguring for another
|
|
||||||
architecture.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Installation Names
|
|
||||||
==================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
By default, `make install' will install the package's files in
|
|
||||||
`/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/man', etc. You can specify an
|
|
||||||
installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving `configure' the
|
|
||||||
option `--prefix=PATH'.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can specify separate installation prefixes for
|
|
||||||
architecture-specific files and architecture-independent files. If you
|
|
||||||
give `configure' the option `--exec-prefix=PATH', the package will use
|
|
||||||
PATH as the prefix for installing programs and libraries.
|
|
||||||
Documentation and other data files will still use the regular prefix.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In addition, if you use an unusual directory layout you can give
|
|
||||||
options like `--bindir=PATH' to specify different values for particular
|
|
||||||
kinds of files. Run `configure --help' for a list of the directories
|
|
||||||
you can set and what kinds of files go in them.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If the package supports it, you can cause programs to be installed
|
|
||||||
with an extra prefix or suffix on their names by giving `configure' the
|
|
||||||
option `--program-prefix=PREFIX' or `--program-suffix=SUFFIX'.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Optional Features
|
|
||||||
=================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Some packages pay attention to `--enable-FEATURE' options to
|
|
||||||
`configure', where FEATURE indicates an optional part of the package.
|
|
||||||
They may also pay attention to `--with-PACKAGE' options, where PACKAGE
|
|
||||||
is something like `gnu-as' or `x' (for the X Window System). The
|
|
||||||
`README' should mention any `--enable-' and `--with-' options that the
|
|
||||||
package recognizes.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For packages that use the X Window System, `configure' can usually
|
|
||||||
find the X include and library files automatically, but if it doesn't,
|
|
||||||
you can use the `configure' options `--x-includes=DIR' and
|
|
||||||
`--x-libraries=DIR' to specify their locations.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Specifying the System Type
|
|
||||||
==========================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
There may be some features `configure' can not figure out
|
|
||||||
automatically, but needs to determine by the type of host the package
|
|
||||||
will run on. Usually `configure' can figure that out, but if it prints
|
|
||||||
a message saying it can not guess the host type, give it the
|
|
||||||
`--host=TYPE' option. TYPE can either be a short name for the system
|
|
||||||
type, such as `sun4', or a canonical name with three fields:
|
|
||||||
CPU-COMPANY-SYSTEM
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
See the file `config.sub' for the possible values of each field. If
|
|
||||||
`config.sub' isn't included in this package, then this package doesn't
|
|
||||||
need to know the host type.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you are building compiler tools for cross-compiling, you can also
|
|
||||||
use the `--target=TYPE' option to select the type of system they will
|
|
||||||
produce code for and the `--build=TYPE' option to select the type of
|

system on which you are compiling the package.

Sharing Defaults
|
|
||||||
================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you want to set default values for `configure' scripts to share,
|
|
||||||
you can create a site shell script called `config.site' that gives
|
|
||||||
default values for variables like `CC', `cache_file', and `prefix'.
|
|
||||||
`configure' looks for `PREFIX/share/config.site' if it exists, then
|
|
||||||
`PREFIX/etc/config.site' if it exists. Or, you can set the
|
|
||||||
`CONFIG_SITE' environment variable to the location of the site script.
|
|
||||||
A warning: not all `configure' scripts look for a site script.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Operation Controls
|
|
||||||
==================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`configure' recognizes the following options to control how it
|
|
||||||
operates.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`--cache-file=FILE'
|
|
||||||
Use and save the results of the tests in FILE instead of
|
|
||||||
`./config.cache'. Set FILE to `/dev/null' to disable caching, for
|
|
||||||
debugging `configure'.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`--help'
|
|
||||||
Print a summary of the options to `configure', and exit.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`--quiet'
|
|
||||||
`--silent'
|
|
||||||
`-q'
|
|
||||||
Do not print messages saying which checks are being made. To
|
|
||||||
suppress all normal output, redirect it to `/dev/null' (any error
|
|
||||||
messages will still be shown).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`--srcdir=DIR'
|
|
||||||
Look for the package's source code in directory DIR. Usually
|
|
||||||
`configure' can determine that directory automatically.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`--version'
|
|
||||||
Print the version of Autoconf used to generate the `configure'
|
|
||||||
script, and exit.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`configure' also accepts some other, not widely useful, options.
