============
|
|
BUILDING TIX
|
|
============
|
|
1. You must have a recent source distribution of Tcl/Tk installed (we
|
|
have tested with 8.0.4 and 8.0.5).
|
|
|
|
2. For Unix, You should be able to change to unix/tk8.0; then,
|
|
configure and compile with:
|
|
./configure
|
|
make > make.log
|
|
|
|
Before running "make", you can edit the Makefile and change the -O
|
|
compile option to -O2 for slightly better performance with gcc/egcs.
|
|
|
|
You may find the configure options --prefix, --with-tcl, --with-tk
|
|
etc. useful. For example, I have a copy of the egcs compiler
|
|
installed as /d2a/exper/bin/gcc, the tcl8.0.5 and tk8.0.5 source
|
|
distributions at /d2a/src/tcl-tk/tcl8.0.5 and
|
|
/d2a/src/tcl-tk/tk8.0.5 respectively, and prefer to install Tix to
|
|
/d2a/exper, so I use something like this:
|
|
|
|
env PATH=/d2a/exper/bin:$PATH ./configure \
|
|
--prefix=/d2a/exper --enable-gcc --enable-shared \
|
|
--with-tcl=/d2a/src/tcl-tk/tcl8.0.5 \
|
|
--with-tk=/d2a/src/tcl-tk/tk8.0.5
|
|
|
|
[If you reassign the PATH variable like this, remember to do the
|
|
same thing with all the "make" commands as well.]
|
|
|
|
If the compile failed for some reason, you can look at the files
|
|
make.errs and make.log for clues.
|
|
|
|
3. If the compile is successful, you should now be able to run it:
|
|
./tixwish
|
|
source ../../demos/widget
|
|
This will bring up a demo window with lots of Tix megawidgets.
|
|
|
|
4. You can now run the test suite if you wish and install Tix:
|
|
make tests [optional]
|
|
make install
|
|
[If the "make tests" fails with a complaint like this:
|
|
ld.so: open error 2 for /libtix4180.so.1.0
|
|
edit Makefile and remove the line that assigns a value to
|
|
LD_LIBRARY_PATH for the "tests" target (I had to do this on SunOS)].
|
|
|
|
5. For WinNT, read win/README.
