Re: [Bug-apl] GNUApl as a library question...

[Juergen Sauermann]

Hi Peter,

after 'make install' in GNU APL 1.5 you should be able to get a description with:

    info libapl

written by Dirk Laurie (who came up with the libapl idea).

You should ./configure with option --with-libapl

There are many different ways to deal with character I/O; for example
./configure --with-android prevents ionstantiation of CIN and friends,
so you can provide your own ones. Or leave everything as is and see
what happens.

Hi Jürgen:

I would like to build apl as a library but I cannot find the instructions on how to do that in the README docs.
Is there somewhere else I should be looking?

1. Is it correct to assume the library inherits the stdin, stdout, stderr of the calling program?
2. Is the API documented? Or should I just look at the source?

Thanks…

Peter
