Building makefiles under GNU Linux
==================================

1) download Gama sources 

   cvs -d:pserver:address@hidden:/sources/gama co -P gama

change working directory to gama

   cd gama

and run configure script and 

build the Gama project build the static library libgama.a 


   ./configure
   make -C lib


2) compile helper program scripts/gnu_gama_dep

   make -C scripts gnu_gama_dep

Makefiles are created by a bash script build-non-gnu-makefiles. Where
run without parameters it displays the help

   scripts/build-non-gnu-makefiles
   
   usage:
   
   cd working-directory
   scripts/build-non-gnu-makefiles gnu | win32-borland | win32-msvc
   
   
   The script (with the helper program gnu_gama_dep.cpp) is run from a
   working directory with GNU gama source codes.  Resulting makefiles are
   written to the 'lib' subdirectory. Before using makefile you need to
   rename file lib/config.h-"platform" to lib/config.h.


3) copy script build-non-gnu-makefiles to the working directory

   cp scripts/build-non-gnu-makefiles  .

and run

   ./build-non-gnu-makefiles win32-msvc

Five makefiles are build in the subdirectory gama/lib

   gama/lib/Makefile-all-win32-msvc      
   gama/lib/Makefile-gama-local-win32-msvc
   gama/lib/Makefile-expat-win32-msvc    
   gama/lib/Makefile-lib-win32-msvc
   gama/lib/Makefile-gama-g3-win32-msvc

4) copy all directories if necessary to a Microsoft windows disc and
   rename config.h-win32-msvc to config.h (as mentioned in step 2)

Compiling Gama under MS Windows
===============================

5) start Visual Studio .NET Command prompt and change to the gama
   source code tree directory gama/lib and run

   nmake -f Makefile-all-win32-msvc

Static library libgama.lib and program gama-local.exe (and also
gama-g3.exe) should be compiled and linked now (if nothing went wrong)

----


I am not familiar with Microsoft .NET studio so if you have any
suggestion for adding/changing of the compile/link parameters, please
let me know.

I am sending you all the makefiles and gama-local.exe in the next
email
