| | 47 | ** Mac OSX + XCode |
| | 48 | ------------------- |
| | 49 | # install cmake use the shell cd to the toplevel source dir |
| | 50 | # of crules |
| | 51 | $ cmake -G Xcode . |
| | 52 | # open Xcode and file->open-project there should be an xcode |
| | 53 | # project file that xcode can open! Now you can work away in |
| | 54 | # xcode if you prefer |
| | 55 | |
| | 56 | ** Windows (7) + MSVC 9.0/nmake |
| | 57 | -------------------------------- |
| | 58 | # install cmake + MSVC express edition |
| | 59 | # install gnuwin32 flex + bison |
| | 60 | * http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/bison.htm |
| | 61 | * http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/flex.htm |
| | 62 | # add the C:\Program Files\gnuwin32\bin to your system PATH |
| | 63 | # test this by opening a command prompt |
| | 64 | $ bison.exe ... |
| | 65 | $ flex.exe |
| | 66 | # if they work your half way |
| | 67 | $ cd to the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC |
| | 68 | # vssetenv.bat to set the envoirment variables for using cl.exe |
| | 69 | # in the shell. Test by exec cl.exe |
| | 70 | $ cd to the crules sources |
| | 71 | --------- |
| | 72 | * For nmake simply: |
| | 73 | $ cmake . |
| | 74 | $ nmake |
| | 75 | * for Visual Studio |
| | 76 | $ cmake -G <generator-string> . # see cmake --help for the correct generator string |
| | 77 | $ open the workspace file |
| | 78 | |
| | 79 | |
| | 80 | NOTE (Windows only): |
| | 81 | -------------------- |
| | 82 | I need more time to fix up the windows builds using m4.exe on windows doesn't seem to like the |
| | 83 | windows style paths and flex and generating the lexer and parser seems to fail. I have only tested |
| | 84 | this on Windows 7 so far also but there shouldn't be a problem on other win32. If your using cygwin |
| | 85 | it would be prefered to using GCC/mingw and autoconf see README follow those build instructions. |
