[1] Errors while compiling parsers
|
|
==================================
|
|
|
|
Gwm can ONLY run with standard lex and yacc, it cannot work with flex, bison,
|
|
byacc or others. If you dont have them (linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD...) do a:
|
|
|
|
cp gwm-parsers/lex.yy.c . ; cp gwm-parsers/y.tab.c
|
|
|
|
and all should work OK.
|
|
|
|
[2] Compiling on DEC alphas
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
GWM may not run on 64-bit machines where integers are not the same size as
|
|
pointers (DEC alphas, but runs ok on SGI R4000s). If there are
|
|
problems, try either the define -DLONG_ALIGN, or the -taso flag, or
|
|
the -misaligned flag, or compile it on a DEC 5000 and translate the
|
|
32-bit binary with the "mx" utility.

|
* GWM seemed to crash when compiled with -O with SUN's cc
|

Symptom: at runtime gwm crashes with message:

[10] Type errors in malloc.c

|
|
|
|
===> add -DVOID_MALLOC to compile options.
|
|
|
|
Any other errors: use -DUSE_STANDARD_MALLOC. This bypasses the gwm-provided
|
|
malloc which provided debugging (stats) info, and was much faster than old
|
|
SYSV mallocs, but is no more faster than most modern mallocs. Bypassing GWM
|
|
malloc will get rid of any compiling errors anyways.

[12] Compiling on a NeXT with c-Xist:
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
To: colas@mirsa.inria.fr
|
|
Subject: GWM1.7n on NeXT
|
|
Date: Mon, 12 Oct 92 13:33:29 -0400
|
|
From: anderson@sapir.cog.jhu.edu
|
|
|
|
Colas,
|
|
|
|
I used to use gwm regularly when I used a Sun - a year ago, though, I
|
|
got rid of my Sun and switched to a NeXT. Until recently, I didn't use
|
|
X of any sort on my NeXT, but I've installed co-Xist and its
|
|
associated development environment now, so I thought I'd bring up gwm
|
|
again. You asked that if people bring up gwm on a new machine, they
|
|
let you know what had to be done to get it to work, so here's a data
|
|
point for you.
|
|
|
|
I started from the file gwm-1.7n.tar.Z which I found on export. I
|
|
tried using imake to build it but found it too hard to make the
|
|
necessary modifications. The other procedure, with plain make, worked
|
|
fine (after I figured out how to do it).
|
|
|
|
The version of c-Xist I'm using is 3.0 beta - not yet released, but
|
|
coming out soon and presently in beta test. This is a full
|
|
implementation of X11R5 (the current release version is 2.1.2, based
|
|
on X11R4). I'm running version 3.0 of NeXTstep on a NeXTdimension
|
|
(full color) system. The system software (cc, etc.) is based on gcc
|
|
1.9x: i.e., a pre-release version of gcc2 with lots of
|
|
(undocumented...) NeXT-specific stuff.
|
|
|
|
I managed to get gwm to compile under this setup with the following
|
|
set of defines:
|
|
|
|
DEFINES = -DX11R5 -DSECURE -DUSER_DEBUG -DHAS_STRCHR -DDO_NOT_REDEFINE_MALLOC -DNO_STRUCTURE_OFFSETS
|
|
|
|
Each of the changes from your proposed "vanilla bsd" defines was
|
|
necessary to get some part of gwm to compile. I didn't try
|
|
"-DUSE_STANDARD_MALLOC" instead of "-DDO_NOT_REDEFINE_MALLOC", but at
|
|
least the latter works.
|
|
|
|
I used plain cc (no "-traditional": that breaks the rather wierd new
|
|
setup of include files under NS3.0, and isn't necesary anyway). The
|
|
only other changes I made in the Make.NeXT file were to put stuff in
|
|
/usr/bin/X11 and /usr/lib/X11 (instead of /usr/local/...) because
|
|
that's where all the co-Xist stuff lives anyway.
|
|
|
|
I haven't tested it at all extensively, but I do know that it runs and
|
|
seems to behave as it should. Thanks a lot for your efforts. I should
|
|
mention also that once I stopped trying to be clever and just did what
|
|
your directions told me to do, building gwm from this distribution
|
|
turned out to be very straightforward.
|
|
|
|

|

[13] Compiling with FLEX instead of LEX
|
|
=======================================
|

use wool.flex intead of wool.lex

|
[14] makdepend complains: includes EXTERN.h more than once!
|
|
===========================================================
|
|
|
|
That's normal. Gwm uses EXTERN.h and INTERN.h to better manage public/private
|
|
info in .h, which was not intended by makedepend. ignore these messages.
|
|
|

|

and recompile EVERYTHING (do a make clean before make)

You have X11R5 X11 libraries. Upgrade to X11R6, or add the compile flag -DX11R5
