This switches you over to using - Makefile.Host instead of Makefile.Unix. - -2) Set ARCH_CLASS to the correct architecture class. - (ARCH_CLASS used to be defined in the past, right now - it seems it's only set for VxWorks targets, not hosts). - - ARCH_CLASS is used to define system-dependent - CFLAGS, library contents etc. in Makefile.Host, - so it should describe the general architecture, - maybe - WIN32 : this is the only one really supported in Makefile.Host by now - BSD for sun4, - SYSV for ??, - - Maybe this "general arch" is not sufficient, so we will - end up using - ARCH_CLASS=WIN32, sun4, hp700, .... - as it used to be. - -3) Make sure that the following (new) macros are defined: - - CP =$(PERL) $(EPICS_BASE)/src/tools/cp.pl - MV =$(PERL) $(EPICS_BASE)/src/tools/mv.pl - RM =$(PERL) $(EPICS_BASE)/src/tools/rm.pl -f - MKDIR=$(PERL) $(EPICS_BASE)/src/tools/mkdir.pl - RMDIR=$(PERL) $(EPICS_BASE)/src/tools/rm.pl -rf - or - CP=cp - MV=mv - RM=rm -f - MKDIR=mkdir - RMDIR=rm -rf - - EXE= - OBJ=.o - -4) LINK.c and LINK.cc must now include the target-flag, e.g.: - LINK.c = $(CC) $(LDFLAGS) -o $@ - - because the "-o $@" is also system dependent (it's -Fe$@ for WIN32) - -5) The bin directory for the host based epics tools - $(EPICS)/base/bin/$(HOST_ARCH) - must be in your PATH. - - -B) Adjust Makefile.Host - - If you are trying to build EPICS now, there might be errors - because the Makefile.Host files are only tested on WIN32, yet. - - If changes are necessare in some base/src/???/Makefile.Host, - refer to Sample.Makefile.Host in the base/config dir. - - -The current make-system for WIN32 -needs -* gnumake (OK, sources for WIN32 are available) -* perl (OK, sources for WIN32 are available) -
