Building XZ Utils for DOS
|
||||
=========================
|
||||
|
||||
Introduction
|
||||
|
||||
This document explains how to build XZ Utils for DOS using DJGPP.
|
||||
The resulting binaries should run at least on various DOS versions
|
||||
and under Windows 95/98/98SE/ME, although the Windows version of
|
||||
XZ Utils is recommended under Windows 95 and later.
|
||||
|
||||
This is currently experimental and has got very little testing.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: Makefile and config.h are updated only now and then. This
|
||||
means that especially if you checked out a development version,
|
||||
building for DOS probably won't work without updating Makefile
|
||||
and config.h first.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Getting and Installing DJGPP
|
||||
|
||||
You may use <http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/zip-picker.html> to help
|
||||
deciding what to download, but as of writing (2010-10-09) that may
|
||||
not be the most convenient way taking into account what components
|
||||
are actually required to build XZ Utils. However, using the
|
||||
zip-picker can still be worth doing to get nice short summary of
|
||||
installation instructions (they can be found from readme.1st too).
|
||||
|
||||
For a more manual method, first select a mirror from
|
||||
<http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/getting.html>. You need
|
||||
the following files:
|
||||
|
||||
unzip32.exe (if you don't already have a LFN-capable unzipper)
|
||||
beta/v2/djdev204.zip
|
||||
v2gnu/bnu219b.zip
|
||||
v2gnu/gcc444b.zip
|
||||
v2gnu/mak3791b.zip
|
||||
v2misc/csdpmi7b.zip
|
||||
|
||||
If newer versions are available, probably you should try them first.
|
||||
Note that djdev203.zip is too old to build XZ Utils; you need at
|
||||
least djdev204.zip. Also note that you want csdpmi7b.zip even if you
|
||||
run under Windows or DOSEMU, because the XZ Utils Makefile will embed
|
||||
cwsdstub.exe to the resulting binaries.
|
||||
|
||||
See the instructions in readme.1st found from djdev204.zip. Here's
|
||||
a short summary, but you should still read readme.1st.
|
||||
|
||||
C:\> mkdir DJGPP
|
||||
C:\> cd DJGPP
|
||||
C:\DJGPP> c:\download\unzip32 c:\download\djdev204.zip
|
||||
C:\DJGPP> c:\download\unzip32 c:\download\bnu219b.zip
|
||||
C:\DJGPP> c:\download\unzip32 c:\download\gcc444b.zip
|
||||
C:\DJGPP> c:\download\unzip32 c:\download\mak3791b.zip
|
||||
C:\DJGPP> c:\download\unzip32 c:\download\csdpmi7b.zip
|
||||
|
||||
C:\DJGPP> set PATH=C:\DJGPP\BIN;%PATH%
|
||||
C:\DJGPP> set DJGPP=C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV
|
||||
|
||||
You may want to add the last two lines into AUTOEXEC.BAT or have,
|
||||
for example, DJGPP.BAT which you can run before using DJGPP.
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure you use completely upper case path in the DJGPP environment
|
||||
variable. This is not required by DJGPP, but the XZ Utils Makefile is
|
||||
a bit stupid and expects that everything in DJGPP environment variable
|
||||
is uppercase.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Building
|
||||
|
||||
You need to have an environment that supports long filenames (LFN).
|
||||
Once you have built XZ Utils, the resulting binaries can be run
|
||||
without long filename support.
|
||||
|
||||
Run "make" in this directory (the directory containing this README).
|
||||
You should get xz.exe (and a bunch of temporary files). Other tools
|
||||
are not built. Having e.g. xzdec.exe doesn't save much space compared
|
||||
to xz.exe, because the DJGPP runtime makes the .exe quite big anyway.
