How to build the freetype2 library on VMS
-----------------------------------------
It is actually very straightforward to install the Freetype2 library.
Just execute vms_make.com from the toplevel directory to build the
library. This procedure currently accepts the following options:
DEBUG
Build the library with debug information and without optimization.
lopts=<value>
Options to pass to the link command e.g. lopts=/traceback
ccopt=<value>
Options to pass to the C compiler e.g. ccopt=/float=ieee
In case you did download the demos, place them in a separate directory
sharing the same toplevel as the directory of Freetype2 and follow the
same instructions as above for the demos from there. The build
process relies on this to figure the location of the Freetype2 include
files.
To rebuild the sources it is necessary to have MMS/MMK installed on
the system.
The library is available in the directory
[.LIB]
To compile applications using FreeType 2 you have to define the
logical FREETYPE pointing to the directory
[.INCLUDE.FREETYPE]
i.e., if the directory in which this INSTALL.VMS file is located is
$disk:[freetype] then define the logical with
define freetype $disk:[freetype.include.freetype]
This version has been tested with Compaq C V6.2-006 on OpenVMS Alpha
V7.2-1.
