Mstone building instructions For Unix, just "gmake" one of these release The usual optimized build debug Debug build includes some asserts rpackage Build the release and package it dpackage Build the debug version and package it unix_OPT Build a UNIX multi-platform package unix_DBG Build a UNIX multi-platform debug package You can build multiple OSes in the same tree. Debug and optimized builds are kept separately. The unix_??? targets will combine whatever OSes are present into a multi-architecture package. For NT, run autobuild.bat. This will build and package both the debug and optimized versions. Perl must already be built and installed in \. Helper components Mstone can build and package perl, gnuplot, and gd. These will be automatically built and packaged if they are present. Unpack gd1.3 or later in the mstone directory. You can probably find gd from here: http://www.boutell.com/gd/. The directory should look like gd1.3. Right now we need the (obsolete) version 1.3 to generate GIF files (without patented run-length coding). The scripts need to be updated to be able to handle PNG files, too. Unpack gnuplot 3.7 or later in the mstone directory. You can probably find gnuplot from http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/gnuplot_info.html. The directory should look like gnuplot-3.7 (the exact version should not matter). Gnuplot requres gd to generate GIFs (which is what we need). Unpack perl 5.005 or later in the mstone directory. You can probably find perl from http://www.perl.com/pub/language/info/software.html. The directory should look like perl5.005_03 (the exact version should not matter).
