INTRODUCTION
|
||
|
|
==============
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
FLTK currently supports the following development environments on vmost Unix
|
||
|
|
platforms:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- gcc command line tools
|
||
|
|
- Code::Blocks
|
||
|
|
- ...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
PREREQUISITES
|
||
|
|
===============
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Ubuntu 10
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Ubuntu Linux can be downloaded here:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
www.ubuntu.com
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you have not done so yet, download and install Ubuntu.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Open a shell and install some software:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
sudo apt-get install g++
|
||
|
|
sudo apt-get install gdb
|
||
|
|
sudo apt-get install subversion
|
||
|
|
sudo apt-get install autoconf
|
||
|
|
sudo apt-get install libx11-dev
|
||
|
|
sudo apt-get install libglu1-mesa-dev
|
||
|
|
sudo apt-get install libasound2-dev
|
||
|
|
sudo apt-get install libxft-dev
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you are planning to use the Code::Blocks IDE, also install this
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
sudo apt-get install codeblocks
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I like to use subversion to install the latest FLTK-1.3.release:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
svn co http://svn.easysw.com/public/fltk/fltk/branches/branch-1.3/ fltk-1.3
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To update to the latest version, just go into the fltk-1.3 directory and type
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
svn update
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
FIXME: no FL_SYMBOL font (-*-symbol-*), font 15 (Zapf-Dingbats)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
HOW TO BUILD FLTK USING GCC
|
||
|
|
=============================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Downloading and Unpacking
|
||
|
|
---------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Download FLTK from here:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
http://www.fltk.org/software.php
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you are familiar with "subversion" and like to stay current with your
|
||
|
|
version, you will find the subversion access parameters at the bottom of that
|
||
|
|
page. Unpack FLTK into a convinient location. I like to have everything in my
|
||
|
|
dev directory:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
cd
|
||
|
|
mkdir dev
|
||
|
|
cd dev
|
||
|
|
mv ~/Downloads/fltk-1.3.xxxx.tar.gz .
|
||
|
|
tar xvfz fltk-1.3.xxxx.tar.gz
|
||
|
|
cd fltk-1.3.xxxx
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Configuring FLTK
|
||
|
|
------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Stay in your FLTK source-code directory. Type:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
autoconf
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now configure your FLTK installation:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
./configure
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ADVANCED: type "./configure --help" to get a complete list of optional
|
||
|
|
configurations parameters. These should be pretty self-explenatory. Some
|
||
|
|
more details can be found in README.
|
||
|
|
:END_ADVANCED
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The configuration script will check your machine for the required resources
|
||
|
|
which you should have installed as described in the Perequisites chapter. Review
|
||
|
|
the Configuration Summary, maybe take some notes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Building FLTK
|
||
|
|
---------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now this is easy. Stay in your FLTK source-code directory and type:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
make
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The entire FLTK toolkit including many test programs will be built for you. No
|
||
|
|
warnings should appear. If some do, please let the FLTK developer team know via
|
||
|
|
the mailing list or the bug reporting template at www.fltk.org .
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Actually, as of Oct 28 2010, quite a bunch of warnigns will show, mostly about
|
||
|
|
suggested parenthesis. Please ignore them until we can fix them.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Testing FLTK
|
||
|
|
--------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After a successful build, you can test FLTK's capabilities:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
test/demo
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Installing FLTK
|
||
|
|
-----------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you did not change any of the configuration settings, FLTK will be installed
|
||
|
|
in "/usr/local/include" and "/usr/local/lib" by typing
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
sudo make install
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It is possible to install FLTK without superuser previleges by changing the
|
||
|
|
installation path to a location within the user account by adding the
|
||
|
|
"--prefix=PREFIX" parameters to the "./configure" command.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Creating new Projects
|
||
|
|
-----------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
FLTK provides a neat script named "fltk-config" that can provide all the flags
|
||
|
|
needed to build FLTK applications using the same flags that were used to build
|
||
|
|
the library itself. Running "fltk-config" without arguments will print a list
|
||
|
|
options. The easiest call to compile an FLTK application from a single source
|
||
|
|
file is:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
fltk-config --compile myProgram.cxx
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
"fltk-config" and "fluid" will be installed in "/usr/local/bin/" by default. I
|
||
|
|
recommend that you add it to the command search path.
