search for three variants
-lBLT (for debian and gentoo)
-lBLT24 (for redhat and centos)
-lBLT25 (might be usefull for someone else)
The advertised configure incantation is now:
configure --enable-shared=yes --with-tcl=/usr/lib/tcl8.6
In case you need a special "BLT" you can still use
LIBS=-lBLTfoobar configure --enable-shared=yes --with-tcl=/usr/lib/tcl8.6
to override the automatic search
For developing purpose only, and bound to HAVE_TSEARCH, HAVE_TDESTROY
IFparm descriptors must obey certain contracts,
1) aliases must be grouped together with their associated main descriptor,
and all must have flag IF_REDUNDANT set
2) there shall be no duplicated .id fields except for aliases.
3) aliased entries shall have consistent .dataType fields
check_ifparm will traverse all IFparm sets and report violations
Allow to override the admsXml executable when invoking
autogen.sh and configure.ac
ADMSXML=/foo/bar/baz/admsXml ./autogen.sh --adms
ADMSXML=/foo/bar/baz/admsXml ./configure --enable-adms
alternatively (and more advertised)
./configure ADMSXML=/foo/bar/baz/admsXml --enable-adms
The generated Makefiles remember the given path.
A relative path doesn't make sense of course.
notably on debian gnu/linux with package `mingw-w64'
cross-compile a mingw 32bit windows executable with this incantation:
(compile "
./autogen.sh
rm -rf tmp-build tmp-output
mkdir -p tmp-build tmp-output
( cd tmp-build && ../configure \
--build=$(../config.guess) \
--host=i686-w64-mingw32 \
--prefix='c:/spice' \
--exec-prefix='c:/spice'\
--with-windows --enable-xspice --enable-cider --disable-debug )
LC_ALL=C make -C tmp-build -k -j6
LC_ALL=C make -C tmp-build -k -j6 DESTDIR=$(pwd)/tmp-output/ install
(cd 'tmp-output/c:/' && zip -r - .) > tmp-output.zip
")
compilation to Win64 works the same way, with
--host=x86_64-w64-mingw32
The tmp-output.zip directory structure resembles the
structure of our original sourceforge ngspice-26_140112.zip windows package
ready to be unzip'ed in c:/
Though the testfiles, examples and documentation is missing.
explicitly use
configure --disable-maintainer-mode
only if you don't have bison and flex.
we still have the bison/flex generated output files in the repository,
causing quite complex make dependencies.
allow to overide CFLAGS like this:
CFLAGS=something ./configure
./configure CFLAGS=something
empty CFLAGS are allowed too, like this
CFLAGS="" ./configure
./configure CFLAGS=""
otherwise use our longish builtin default CFLAGS
./configure
