Building is (ahem) very easy.

|
ALL PLATFORMS:
|
|
|
|
Please understand your rights and mine: read the text file LICENSE in the root
|
|
of the source tree. If you can't abide by it, delete this source tree now.
|
|
|
|
If you've got Doxygen (http://www.doxygen.org/) installed, you can run it
|
|
without any command line arguments in the root of the source tree to generate
|
|
the API reference. This is optional. You can browse the API docs online
|
|
here: http://icculus.org/physfs/docs/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
UNIX:
|
|
(If you got this code from CVS, run "./bootstrap" first.)
|
|
|
|
Run ./configure --help and see what features can be optionally enabled or
|
|
disabled. "./configure" does its best to pick optimal defaults for your
|
|
platform.
|
|
|
|
Run "make".
|
|
As root, run "make install".
|
|
If you get sick of the library, run "make uninstall" as root and it will
|
|
remove all traces of the library from the system paths.
|
|
|
|
Primary Unix development is done with GNU/Linux, but PhysicsFS is known to
|
|
work out of the box with several flavors of Unix. It it doesn't work, patches
|
|
to get it running can be sent to icculus@clutteredmind.org.
|
|
|
|
|
|
BeOS:
|
|
Use the "Unix" instructions, above.
|
|
|
|
|
|
AtheOS/Syllable:
|
|
Use the "Unix" instructions, above.
|
|
|
|
|
|
WIN32:
|
|
If building with CygWin, mingw32 or something else that uses the GNU
|
|
toolchain, follow the Unix instructions, above.
|
|
|
|
If you're using Visual C++ 6, point it at "physfs.dsp" in the root of the
|
|
source tree, and build. This will produce a "physfs.dll" and "physfs.lib"
|
|
(shared library and import lib, respectively) in either a "Debug" or
|
|
"Release" directory, depending on what configuration you chose to build.
|
|
After building the lib, you can make sure it works by building the
|
|
"test_physfs.dsp" project file, which will create "test_physfs.exe" in
|
|
"Debug" or "Release". This EXE is linked against the DLL you built
|
|
previously.
|
|
|
|
If you're using Visual C++ 6 and want to generate a static LIB file, point
|
|
it at "physfs_static.dsp" in the root of the source tree and build. This
|
|
will produce a "physfs_static.lib" in either a "physfs_static_debug"
|
|
or a "physfs_static_release" directory, depending on what configuration
|
|
you chose to build. NOTE: "test_physfs.dsp" does not work with the
|
|
statically linked build.
|
|
|
|
Visual Studio.NET users should do the same thing, but use the "physfs.vcproj"
|
|
and "test_physfs.vcproj" project files instead.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: to change build options such as which drivers are loaded (ZIP, QPAK,
|
|
etc.) modify the appropriate manifest constants under the Project Settings.
|
|
By default the LIB version supports all drivers, but the DLL build does
|
|
not support MVL or HOG file formats.
|
|
|
|
If you're using another compiler, send me a patch when you get it working. :)
|
|
|
|
No one's tried building this for a WinCE (PocketPC) platform, but it may or
|
|
may not work. Patches are welcome.
|
|
|
|
If someone is willing to maintain prebuilt PhysicsFS DLLs, I'd like to hear
|
|
from you; send an email to icculus@clutteredmind.org.
|
|
|
|
MACOS 8/9:
|
|
Double-click on "CWProjects.sit" in the root of the source tree. This will
|
|
unpack into a folder called "Mac Classic Support", which has CodeWarrior 6
|
|
project files.
|
|
|
|
Point CodeWarrior at "physfs.mcp" in that new folder, and build. This will
|
|
produce a "PhysicsFS" or "PhysicsFS Debug" shared library, depending on what
|
|
configuration you chose to build. After building the lib, you can make sure
|
|
it works by building the "test_physfs.mcp" project file, which will create
|
|
"test_physfs" or "test_physfs Debug". These binaries are linked against the
|
|
DLLs you built previously.
|
|
|
|
If someone is willing to maintain prebuilt PhysicsFS Shared Libraries for
|
|
the Mac, I'd like to hear from you; send an email to icculus@clutteredmind.org.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MACOS X:
|
|
You (currently) need to use the freeware Apple Developer Tools, which are
|
|
based on the GNU toolchain. Fire up a terminal and run "cc"...if this reports
|
|
"no input files" then you've got the tools installed.
|
|
|
|
Follow the Unix directions, above (configure, make, make install).
|
|
|
|
If someone is willing to maintain prebuilt PhysicsFS Shared Libraries for
|
|
MacOS X, I'd like to hear from you; send an email to icculus@clutteredmind.org.
|
|
|
|
|
|
OS/2:
|
|
You need EMX installed. I tried this on a stock Warp 4 install, no fixpaks.
|
|
I used the latest EMX and patches (which are several years old now). You need
|
|
to install link386.exe (Selective Install, "link object modules" option). Once
|
|
EMX is installed correctly, unpack the source to PhysicsFS and run the script
|
|
file "makeos2.cmd". I know this isn't ideal, but I wanted to have this build
|
|
without users having to hunt down a "make" program (While several exist, EMX
|
|
doesn't come with one). If someone wants to hack some REXX to make this a bit
|
|
more picky about recompiling, I'll accept the patch.
|
|
|
|
If someone is willing to maintain prebuilt PhysicsFS Shared Libraries for
|

OS/2, I'd like to hear from you; send an email to icculus@clutteredmind.org.

OTHER PLATFORMS:
|
|
Many Unix-like platforms might "just work" with the GNU autoconf tools. Some
|
|
of these platforms are known to have worked at one time, but have not been
|
|
heavily tested, if tested at all. PhysicsFS is, as far as we know, 64-bit and
|
|
byteorder clean, and is known to compile on several compilers across many
|
|
platforms. To implement a new platform or archiver, please read the
|
|
heavily-commented physfs_internal.h and look in the platform/ and archiver/
|
|
directories for examples.
