This file describes how to install KTIGCC. A. Installing KTIGCC from RPMs ============================== The recommended installation method for Fedora is to use the provided RPMs. WARNING: This section is ONLY for Fedora Core 6 (and possibly later versions, though this is not guaranteed to work) users. If you're not running FC6 (or later), please skip to the next section. 1. Obtain the required prerequisites: 1.1. The following RPMs from Fedora Core or Extras are required: glib2 (used by libti*) qt (NOT qt4) qt-devel (for the Qt Assistant help file viewer) kdelibs (obviously), version 3.5.2 or higher kdebase (required for some features), version 3.5.2 or higher ctags (to locate C functions/prototypes) These can be installed with: yum install glib2 qt-devel kdebase ctags 1.2. The following RPMs packaged by me are required: tigcc and ktigcc-completion-data - can be obtained from http://tigcc.ticalc.org/linux/ libticables2, libtifiles2, libticalcs2 and libticonv - can be obtained from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=23169 2. Install KTIGCC: For i386 (32-bit x86) architectures: rpm -Uvh tigcc*.i386.rpm ktigcc-completion-data*.noarch.rpm libti*.i386.rpm ktigcc*.i386.rpm For x86_64 (64-bit AMD64/EM64T) architectures: rpm -Uvh tigcc*.x86_64.rpm ktigcc-completion-data*.noarch.rpm libti*.x86_64.rpm ktigcc*.x86_64.rpm (RPMs are currently available only for the i386 and x86_64 architectures.) 3. KTIGCC should now show up in the menu. If it doesn't and you're running KDE, try: dcop kded kbuildsycoca "recreate()" It can also be found in /usr/local/tigcc/bin, which should be in your $PATH, so running ktigcc from an X11 terminal will also work. B. Installing KTIGCC from source ================================ 1. Obtain and install the required prerequisites: glib2 (*) Qt 3 (*) (NOT Qt 4) kdelibs from KDE 3, version 3.5.2 or higher (*) (NOT KDE 4, which is not even alpha at the time I'm writing this) kdebase from KDE 3 (should be the same version as kdelibs) Qt 3 Assistant (often included in qt or qt-devel packages) pkg-config Exuberant Ctags - can be obtained from http://ctags.sourceforge.net libticables2 (*), libtifiles2 (*), libticalcs2 (*) and libticonv (*) - can be obtained from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=23169 TIGCC/*nix and TIGCCLIB completion data for KTIGCC (ktigcc-completion-data) - can be obtained from http://tigcc.ticalc.org/linux/ (*) If your distribution provides both a runtime and a -devel or -dev version of these packages, the -devel or -dev version is also needed. 1.1. Installation instructions for libti* The libti* libraries are standard autotools projects, they should build and install just fine with: ./configure make make install 1.2. Installation instructions for TIGCC/*nix Please refer to the INSTALL document coming with the TIGCC/*nix source tarball. The main stumbling blocks: * You have to fetch the GCC and GNU as sources separately and symlink the extracted versions to download/gcc.ti and download/binutils.ti respectively. * There is no configure script or makefile. Instead, do this: cd scripts ./Install and an interactive wizard will prompt you for everything else. This procedure is described in detail in the TIGCC/*nix INSTALL file. 1.3. Installation instructions for ktigcc-completion-data The tarball contains a file named "completion". This file should be extracted to `kde-config --expandvars --install data`/ktigcc/ (usually /usr/share/apps/ktigcc/). 2. qmake (You can run ./configure, but that just runs qmake.) WARNING: You need Qt 3 qmake. 3. make 4. make install 5. KTIGCC can now be found in your $TIGCC/bin directory.
