Started a README for all Unix packages. The first example is for Ubuntu 10 in the command line. More to follow. Suggestions appreciated.

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.
