Annotation of OpenXM_contrib/gnuplot/0INSTALL, Revision 1.1
1.1 ! maekawa 1: Installation
! 2: ************
! 3:
! 4: This document is divided into four parts: the first part (For the
! 5: impatient) provides a quick overview of configuration and compilation
! 6: instructions. It also lists those options to the configure shell script
! 7: which are unique to gnuplot. Part two describes the environment variables
! 8: used by gnuplot. Part three explains in detail how --with-PACKAGE=PATH
! 9: works, and how this option interacts with --libdir and --includedir.
! 10: Part four addresses some platform specific problems and testing issues.
! 11: There are also some hints how to build gnuplot with pre-ANSI C compilers.
! 12: Part five finally describes a few graphical front ends for gnuplot.
! 13:
! 14: The description of preprocessor options previously found here has been
! 15: moved to a new file called 0PORTING. Generic installation instructions
! 16: for `configure', such as distributed with FSF/GNU packages, have been
! 17: moved to the file INSTALL.gnu.
! 18:
! 19: For the impatient
! 20: =================
! 21:
! 22: First, tune term.h to choose which terminal drivers you wish to enable.
! 23: If you want to support gif output, you need to download, compile and
! 24: install the gd library : see term/gif.trm for details.
! 25:
! 26: If you want to support png output (free gif alternative), you need
! 27: png and z libraries : see term/png.trm for details. Note that the
! 28: png library will probably not compile without an ANSI/ISO C compiler.
! 29:
! 30: A complete overview of configure options is below in the Basic
! 31: Installation section. On platforms which do not support GNU
! 32: autoconf/configure, ie. most non-Unix platforms, look for a makefile
! 33: that looks suitable, (makefile.emx for emx on dos, makefile.nt for
! 34: MS VC++ 4.x on NT and probably win95, makefile.win for borland c on
! 35: win95/nt, makefile.wc for DOS Watcom C etc.)
! 36:
! 37: File location defaults
! 38: ----------------------
! 39:
! 40: PREFIX /usr/local
! 41: gnuplot PREFIX/bin
! 42: gnuplot_x11 PREFIX/bin
! 43: gnuplot.1 PREFIX/man/man1
! 44: gnuplot.gih PREFIX/share
! 45:
! 46: The only files where the runtime location is defined at compile time are
! 47: gnuplot.gih and show.c. This is important if gnuplot is not installed by running
! 48: 'make install'.
! 49:
! 50: The default path for the help library, gnuplot.gih, can be controlled in
! 51: several different ways:
! 52:
! 53: o with configure's --prefix= option, eg.
! 54: ./configure --prefix=/gnuplot
! 55: Attention: This affects the location of *all* installed files!
! 56:
! 57: o with configure's --datadir= option, eg.
! 58: ./configure --datadir='/gnuplot/docs'
! 59:
! 60: o at make time, eg.
! 61: make HELPFILE='/gnuplot/docs/gnuplot.gih'
! 62:
! 63: o at execution time by specifying the helpfile with the environment
! 64: variable GNUHELP (see "Environment Variables" below).
! 65:
! 66: The default location of the executables can be controlled in different
! 67: ways:
! 68:
! 69: o with configure's --prefix= option, eg.
! 70: ./configure --prefix=/gnuplot
! 71: Attention: This affects the location of *all* installed files!
! 72:
! 73: o with configure's --bindir= option, eg.
! 74: ./configure --bindir='/gnuplot/bin'
! 75:
! 76: o at make time, eg.
! 77: make GNUPLOT_BINDIR='/gnuplot/bin'
! 78:
! 79: If the executables are not installed in the default location, files
! 80: written by the `save' command cannot be used as scripts on Un*x platforms.
! 81: There is no way to specify the location of the executables during
! 82: runtime. Other platforms are not affected by this.
! 83:
! 84: The gnuplot demo files are not installed by default. If desired, they
! 85: should be copied manually to a location of choice.
! 86:
! 87: Unix, configure
! 88: ---------------
! 89:
! 90: On Unix, use
! 91: $ ./configure
! 92: $ make
! 93: [ Optionally run demos--see "How to test gnuplot" below. ]
! 94: $ make install
! 95:
! 96: If gcc is installed, it is used by default. A different compiler can be
! 97: used through the CC environment variable:
! 98:
! 99: (Bourne shell)
! 100: $ CC=c89 ./configure
! 101:
! 102: (C shell)
! 103: $ setenv CC c89
! 104: $ ./configure
! 105:
! 106: Any environment settings for CFLAGS are included into the Makefile,
! 107: so please make sure that these are really needed.
! 108:
! 109: There are several options available for configure that you may want
! 110: to change. A complete list of options is available through
! 111:
! 112: $ ./configure --help
! 113:
! 114: --prefix=PREFIX Install architecture-independent files in PREFIX
! 115: [/usr/local]. The gnuplot (and gnuplot_x11) binary
! 116: is installed in PREFIX/bin.
! 117: --bindir=DIR user executables in DIR [PREFIX/bin]
! 118: --datadir=DIR Read-only architecture-independent data in DIR
! 119: [PREFIX/share]. The gnuplot help file is installed
! 120: in this directory.
! 121: --libdir=DIR object code libraries in DIR [EPREFIX/lib]
! 122: --includedir=DIR C header files in DIR [PREFIX/include]
! 123: --mandir=DIR Man documentation in DIR [PREFIX/man]
! 124: --without-readline Do not use the included readline function
! 125: --with-gnu-readline Use the GNU readline version If you don't use this,
! 126: you won't have file name completion.
! 127: --with-gnu-readline=PATH Specify the location of libreadline.
! 128: Use this form if your libreadline is not installed
! 129: where your linker can find it.
! 130: --with-plot use the Unix plot library
! 131: --with-plot=PATH Specify the location of GNU libplot
! 132: --with-gd (*) Enable gif terminal with Tom Boutell's gd library
! 133: (requires GD library)
! 134: --with-gd=PATH Specify the location of libgd
! 135: --with-png (*) Enable png terminal
! 136: (requires libpng and libz)
! 137: --with-png=PATH Specify the location of libpng
! 138: --with-cwdrc Check current directory for .gnuplotrc file,
! 139: normally disabled for security reasons. However,
! 140: the home directory is always checked for a
! 141: .gnuplotrc file.
! 142: --with-lasergnu Install lasergnu printer script
! 143: --without-linux-vga (*) Do not use the Linux console driver
! 144: (requires Linux SVGAlib /usr/lib/libvga)
! 145: --enable-apollo Apollo Graphics Primitive Resource
! 146: --enable-gpr Apollo Graphics Primitive Resource (fixed-size window)
! 147: --enable-cgi enable CGI terminal (SCO only)
! 148: --enable-iris enable IRIS terminal (IRIS4D only)
! 149: --enable-sun enable sunview terminal (Sun only)
! 150: --enable-unixpc enable unixpc terminal (ATT 3b1 or ATT 7300)
! 151: --enable-system-time use the system time routines in time.c
! 152: --with-x (*) Use the X Window System
! 153:
! 154: Options marked with (*) are on by default, ie. these features or packages
! 155: will be used if configure can detect them, even if the corresponding option
! 156: is not specified. Please note that the `--with-PACKAGE' options can have
! 157: additional arguments:
! 158:
! 159: o `--with-PACKAGE' is equivalent to `--with-PACKAGE=yes'
! 160: o `--with-PACKAGE=no' will disable checking for PACKAGE. It has the same
! 161: effect as `--without-PACKAGE'.
! 162: o `--with-PACKAGE=PATH' will check for PACKAGE in PATH
! 163:
! 164: Unix, no configure
! 165: ------------------
! 166:
! 167: The older, no-longer-preferred, way is to copy makefile.unx to Makefile
! 168: cp makefile.unx Makefile
! 169: Look through the Makefile to see if you need to make any changes.
! 170: See especially the HELPDEST and TERMFLAGS variables. Edit if needed.
! 171: Alternatively, all these variables may be set as command line arguments to
! 172: 'make'. For example:
! 173:
! 174: make <MACHINE> HELPDEST='/usr/um/misc/lib' \
! 175: DEST='/usr/um/misc/bin' READLINE=
! 176:
! 177: Type
! 178: make
! 179: For further instructions.
! 180: If that works, try
! 181: make install
! 182: For further instructions.
! 183:
! 184: VMS
! 185: ---
! 186:
! 187: On VMS, invoke MAKE_VMS.COM (or BUILDVMS.COM if you have MMS or MMK
! 188: but don't want to use the supplied DESCRIP.MMS). You may get warnings
! 189: or more serious errors depending on the versions of the C compiler, the
! 190: C run-time libraries, and {Open}VMS on your system.
! 191:
! 192:
! 193: To compile using DEC MMS or MMK (PD clone),
! 194: invoke MMS or MMK with the supplied descrip.mms
! 195: Or if you have a unix-like make utility
! 196: copy makefile.vms makefile
! 197: make
! 198: Or if you don't have a suitable make:
! 199: @buildvms
! 200: To tell gnuplot where to find the help library:
! 201: $ define gnuplot$help disk:[directory]gnuplot.hlb
! 202: Alternatively (and preferably) put the help in the main system help library.
! 203:
! 204: AmigaOS
! 205: -------
! 206:
! 207: Using Aztec C 5.2a
! 208: make -f makefile.ami
! 209: Using SAS/C 6.1 or later versions
! 210: smake -f makefile.amg
! 211: Using gcc: see Unix
! 212:
! 213: Atari/TOS
! 214: ---------
! 215:
! 216: Using gcc 2.x as unix cross- or native compiler
! 217: make -f makefile.st
! 218: (Edit top of makefile.st for name of crosscompiler or choose native setting)
! 219: Using PureC
! 220: use gnuplot.prj
! 221: Using TurboC
! 222: use gnuplot.prj
! 223: (Edit gnuplot.prj according to notes at the beginning)
! 224:
! 225: MS-Windows
! 226: ----------
! 227:
! 228: Using Microsoft C 7.0 and compiling for MS-Windows
! 229: copy makefile.msw makefile
! 230: nmake
! 231: Put wgnuplot.exe, wgnuplot.dll, wgnuplot.hlp and wgnuplot.mnu
! 232: in the windows directory.
! 233:
! 234: Using Borland C++ 3.1 and compiling for MS-Windows
! 235: copy makefile.win makefile
! 236: Edit makefile to change TC.
! 237: make
! 238: Put wgnuplot.exe, wgnuplot.dll, wgnuplot.hlp and wgnuplot.mnu
! 239: in the windows directory.
! 240:
! 241: Using the MinGW32 port of egcs: you need the Micrsoft SDK for the
! 242: moment.
! 243: copy makefile.mgw makefile
! 244: Look through the Makefile to see if you need to make any changes.
! 245: make
! 246: make install
! 247:
! 248: Using the Cygwin port of gcc, which includes MinGW32: you need the
! 249: Micrsoft SDK for the moment.
! 250: copy makefile.cyg makefile
! 251: Look through the Makefile to see if you need to make any changes.
! 252: make
! 253: Put wgnuplot.exe, wgnuplot.dll, wgnuplot.hlp and wgnuplot.mnu
! 254: in the windows directory.
! 255:
! 256: MSDOS
! 257: -----
! 258:
! 259: Using DJGPP
! 260: Basically the same as Unix+configure. Andris Pavenis <pavenis@lanet.lv>
! 261: has contributed a shell script which makes the whole process even easier:
! 262: just run djconfig.sh, and then make.
! 263: For novices, it is recommended to use makefile.dj2 instead:
! 264: copy makefile.dj2 makefile
! 265: make
! 266:
! 267: Using Microsoft C 7.0.
! 268: copy makefile.msc makefile
! 269: nmake
! 270:
! 271: Using Borland C++ 3.0
! 272: copy makefile.tc makefile
! 273: Edit makefile to change TC, BIN, BGI, BGIOBJ. You may also want to turn
! 274: off overlays (See manual for more on overlays).
! 275: make
! 276:
! 277: The file gnuplot.gih is needed for help on the PC.
! 278: If the file gnuplot.gih is not in the default directory, then use:
! 279: set GNUHELP={full path name of gnuplot.gih}
! 280:
! 281: OS/2
! 282: ----
! 283:
! 284: To compile under OS/2 (2.x and above) you need the development
! 285: suite EMX 0.9 (including gcc). You should also have
! 286: GNU Make and IBM's IPFC (Information Presentation Facility Compiler,
! 287: available from the Developer's Toolkit; nowadays it's accessible
! 288: through an IBM website for free!).
! 289:
! 290: At the beginning of Makefile.os2 you will find a configuration
! 291: section where you have to adjust all settings which control the build
! 292: process. Most important is probably to select the terminal devices
! 293: which should be supported. You can create a version offering
! 294: PM graphics as well as X11 support (to use with XFree86).
! 295: Support for these two terminals is provided by additional
! 296: executables.
! 297: Be sure to enable only those devices for which you have the
! 298: necessary software already installed. Also ensure that the
! 299: libraries and the sources are all compiled (not) using
! 300: the '-Zmt' flags.
! 301:
! 302: Executing
! 303: make -f makefile.os2
! 304: should create a default build while
! 305: make -f makefile.os2 help
! 306: will show you all pre-defined targets.
! 307:
! 308: See other sections of the manuals for more information about
! 309: installing/using gnuplot on OS/2.
! 310:
! 311: Environment Variables
! 312: =====================
! 313:
! 314: See 'help environment'.
! 315:
! 316: If the environment variable GNUTERM is found, it is used as the terminal
! 317: type. Otherwise, in some cases the variable TERM will be used, or the
! 318: hardware may be automatically detected.
! 319:
! 320: The PC version looks for the environment variable GNUPLOT to contain
! 321: the name of the directory from which to load the initialization file
! 322: GNUPLOT.INI. See the help on 'start_up' for more information.
! 323:
! 324: HOME is examined as a directory where a .gnuplot startup file might be
! 325: found. See help on "start-up".
! 326:
! 327: If defined, the environment variable GNUHELP is used for the name
! 328: of the .gih help file, otherwise HELPFILE (defined in makefile or
! 329: command.c) is used.
! 330:
! 331: The VMS version looks for the logical name GNUPLOT$HELP to locate
! 332: the help library.
! 333:
! 334: The CGI drivers need the CGIPATH environment variable to set the path
! 335: to the CGI agents, and the CGIDISP and/or CGIPRNT environment variables
! 336: to set the output devices.
! 337:
! 338: If using dynamically linked executables with the X11 Window System, it
! 339: may be necessary to define LD_LIBRARY_PATH - see man ld for details.
! 340: It is, however, prefered to use the appropriate linker options, eg.
! 341: -R under Solaris, or -rpath under DEC Unix and Irix.
! 342:
! 343: About --with-PACKAGE[=PATH]
! 344: ***************************
! 345:
! 346: The following description applies to gnuplot only.
! 347:
! 348: Every `--with-PACKAGE' option sets a `with_package' variable in
! 349: configure. Depending on how `--with-PACKAGE' was invoked, there are
! 350: only three different possible values for the `with_package' variable:
! 351:
! 352: Option $with_package
! 353: ----------------------------------------
! 354: (not specified) yes
! 355: --with-package yes
! 356: --with-package=yes yes
! 357: --with-package=no no
! 358: --with-package=PATH PATH
! 359: --without-package no
! 360:
! 361: This means that configure will always (by default) try to locate PACKAGE
! 362: unless `--with-package=no' or `--without-package' was specified. Examples
! 363: for with-PACKAGE options used by gnuplot's configure are `--with-gd',
! 364: `--with-png'. The corresponding package variables are `with_gd',
! 365: and `with_png'.
! 366:
! 367: For gnuplot, configure uses the macros `gp_SEARCH_LIBDIRS' and
! 368: `gp_SEARCH_HEADERDIRS' to search for libraries and includes, resp. These
! 369: macros are different from the standard GNU autoconf macros for this purpose,
! 370: `AC_CHECK_LIB' and `AC_CHECK_HEADER/S' (see autoconf manual). The
! 371: gp_XXX macros are closely tied to gnuplot, and cannot be used for other
! 372: packages without modification.
! 373:
! 374: The difference between these package specific macros and standard
! 375: autoconf macros is that they do search more than one (the default)
! 376: directory to determine the location of the specified file.
! 377:
! 378: Libraries will be searched in at least three, and up to five different
! 379: directories, depending on the PATH specified with `--with-PACKAGE=PATH':
! 380:
! 381: o the default linker path (this is really more than one directory)
! 382: o /usr/local/lib, which is a fairly common place for 3rd party libs
! 383: o the PATH directory, trailing `/lib/libPACKAGE.a' stripped off
! 384: o the PATH directory, trailing `/lib/libPACKAGE.a' stripped off and
! 385: `/lib' added
! 386: o the PATH directory, trailing `/libPACKAGE.a' stripped off.
! 387:
! 388: Using the default linker path as the first search directory has one
! 389: big, but not so obvious advantage: if all libraries are in the same
! 390: directory, the path to the first library specified with --with-PACKAGE
! 391: is added to the linker path with a `-L' option. The library searched
! 392: for with the next --with-PACKAGE option will now be found faster, because
! 393: only one additional directory is checked. This is also true for header files.
! 394:
! 395: Example: the user has unpacked the gd library distribution into
! 396: /home/user/source/gd:
! 397:
! 398: $ configure --with-gd=/home/user/source/gd
! 399:
! 400: will search the following directories for libgd.a:
! 401:
! 402: o the default linker path
! 403: o /usr/local/lib
! 404: o /home/user/source/gd
! 405: o /home/user/source/gd/lib
! 406: o /home/user/source/gd
! 407:
! 408: Include files will be searched in at least two, and up to three different
! 409: directories, depending on the PATH specified with `--with-PACKAGE=PATH':
! 410:
! 411: o the default include path (can be more than one diretcory)
! 412: o /usr/local/include, a fairly common place for 3rd party headers
! 413: o the PATH directory, trailing `/lib/libPACKAGE.a' stripped off
! 414: o the PATH directory, trailing `/lib/libPACKAGE.a' stripped off and
! 415: `/include' added
! 416:
! 417: Caveat: the `gp_SEARCH_HEADERDIRS' macro should only be used after the
! 418: corresponding `gp_SEARCH_LIBDIRS' macro to take full advantage of the
! 419: search algorithm. This is a reasonable assumption nevertheless, because
! 420: it allows for structuring configure.in so that the test for a header file
! 421: is skipped if the corresponding library is not found.
! 422:
! 423: Here are some more examples:
! 424:
! 425: o the gd and png libraries are in /usr/local/gnu/lib, which is
! 426: automatically searched by gcc. The corresponding header files are
! 427: in /usr/local/gnu/include, which is not in gcc's include search path.
! 428: Solution:
! 429:
! 430: $ ./configure --with-gd=/usr/local/gnu
! 431:
! 432: o the gd and png libraries are in /opt/gnu/lib, the header files are
! 433: in /opt/gnu/include. Solution:
! 434:
! 435: $ ./configure --with-gd=/opt/gnu
! 436:
! 437: o the gd and png libraries and headers are all in different directories,
! 438: none of which is in the compilers search path:
! 439:
! 440: $ ./configure --with-gd=/tmp/gd --with-png=/tmp/libpng
! 441:
! 442: [I would like to implement the more generic `--site-includes' and
! 443: `--site-libraries' options for additional flexibility, but this is
! 444: painfully difficult with the current autoconf. It also seems that such
! 445: a feature would not comply with GNU coding standards.]
! 446:
! 447: Platform problems and testing
! 448: *****************************
! 449:
! 450: This section addresses trouble shooting and testing issues. Userland
! 451: questions are answered in the FAQ.
! 452:
! 453: Platform notes
! 454: ==============
! 455:
! 456: Generally, if you think that configure has made a mistake in detecting
! 457: platform features, there are two ways to switch these off.
! 458:
! 459: Example:
! 460: configure was for some reason unable to detect the memset() function, but
! 461: you are sure it is ok to use on your platform. Now you can either edit
! 462: config.cache and change
! 463:
! 464: ac_cv_func_memset=${ac_cv_func_memset='no'} to
! 465: ac_cv_func_memset=${ac_cv_func_memset='yes'}
! 466:
! 467: and rerun configure, or, edit config.h and change
! 468:
! 469: /* #undef HAVE_MEMSET */ to
! 470: #define HAVE_MEMSET 1
! 471:
! 472: Note that changing such defines at compile time, eg. via
! 473: 'make DEFS=-DHAVE_MEMSET' is wrong, because the DEFS variable in Makefile
! 474: may contain other defines (make DEFS='-DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DHAVE_MEMSET'
! 475: should work, though).
! 476:
! 477: - HP-UX 9.x
! 478: It is recommended to use gcc, although the native compiler cc may
! 479: work with warnings.
! 480:
! 481: - HP-UX 10.x
! 482: It is recommended to use the native compiler cc, as problems
! 483: have been reported when using gcc. In the cases reported, we have
! 484: yet to establish whether the compiler is at fault, or the compiler
! 485: setup/configuration is broken.
! 486:
! 487: - IRIX 6.x
! 488: If you want to use the png terminal, you must install your own
! 489: versions of libpng and zlib. The versions supplied with the OS
! 490: are too old. Note that you need be very careful to select the
! 491: correct compiler options/ABI's.
! 492:
! 493: - MS-DOS
! 494: If ports of common Unix utilities (bash, sed etc) are available,
! 495: gnuplot can be built with DJGPP. Install instructions are the same
! 496: as for Unix (with configure).
! 497:
! 498: - SunOS 4.x
! 499: An ANSI/ISO C compiler should be used to compile gnuplot. It is
! 500: recommended to install gcc. If this is not an option, the system
! 501: compiler cc can be made to work with Wietse Venema's unproto tool.
! 502: See entry below for instructions.
! 503:
! 504: As of 1998-11-18, gnuplot compiles again with the native compiler cc.

! 506: - System V.2/Ultrix 4.x/M88 SysV.3
! 507: An ANSI/ISO C compiler should be used to compile gnuplot. It is
! 508: recommended to install gcc. If this is not an option, the system
! 509: compiler cc can be made to work with Wietse Venema's unproto tool.
! 510:
! 511: unproto is available from
! 512: ftp://ftp.win.tue.nl/pub/unix/unproto5.shar.Z
! 513: ftp://ftp.porcupine.org/pub/lang/unproto5.shar.Z
! 514:
! 515: After installing unproto, configure gnuplot with
! 516:
! 517: (Bourne shell syntax)
! 518:
! 519: $ cd gnuplot
! 520: $ CC='cc -B/full/path/to/unproto/dir/ -tp' ./configure <options>
! 521:
! 522: or (C shell syntax)
! 523:
! 524: prompt (41) cd gnuplot
! 525: prompt (42) setenv CC 'cc -B/full/path/to/unproto/dir/ -tp'
! 526: prompt (43) ./configure <options>
! 527:
! 528: The required compiler options shown here are for System V.2. For other
! 529: platforms, consult the unproto documentation. `/full/path/to/unproto/dir'
! 530: is the full path name of the directory where unproto is installed. It is
! 531: not necessary to "install" unproto, one can just create a subdirectory
! 532: in gnuplot's source directory and use it from there.

! 534: How to test gnuplot
! 535: ===================
! 536:
! 537: No comprehensive test suite for gnuplot's features has been written
! 538: to date. However, the supplied demo files provide a good method of
! 539: testing commonly used features. All command line examples below assume
! 540: Unix Bourne shell syntax.
! 541:
! 542: The demo files can be run interactively by eg.
! 543:
! 544: $ cd gnuplot/demo
! 545: $ PATH=..:$PATH ../gnuplot simple.dem
! 546:
! 547: and gnuplot prompts the user to "Hit return to continue" to cycle
! 548: through all the plots. (The PATH= statement is only required if you are
! 549: using the X11 plotting device and the gnuplot_x11 binary has not been
! 550: installed yet.)
! 551:
! 552: To run the demos in a specified file without interaction, one
! 553: can use
! 554:
! 555: $ PATH=..:$PATH ../gnuplot simple.dem </dev/null
! 556:
! 557: To run all demos non-interactively, use
! 558:
! 559: $ PATH=..:$PATH ../gnuplot all.dem </dev/null
! 560:
! 561: To use a different plotting device than the default (usually X11
! 562: under Unix), use eg.
! 563:
! 564: $ GNUTERM=dumb ../gnuplot all.dem </dev/null
! 565:
! 566: To test the capabilities of the terminal you are using, there is
! 567: the 'test' command:
! 568:
! 569: $ gnuplot
! 570:
! 571: G N U P L O T
