In the same vein, I was curious if anyone had been
building the current VM under Mac OS 10.4.1?  I
got some compiler errors when I tried last week,
but was not sure if this was due to ongoing work
on the VM.

Are you talking building the os-x carbon xcode based VM?
Or building under unix?
If under unix, get latest SVN tree, download latest beta etc of  
VMMaker http://www.rowledge.org/tim/squeak/SqFiles/packages/VMMaker/ 
VMMaker-tpr.35.mcz
follow unix build instructions.

If carbon xcode based VM
same, and follow carbon VM build instructions.

Hi John!

(cc-ing Ian directly this time, since I know following lists is a pain
:))

Wel, *I* was referring to unix - but I guess Brent was referring to
MacOS.

Yes, but are all the options to "../platforms/unix/config/configure"
documented there? I know about the new 32/64 bit option, and I know
there is a -without-X (or something like that) option, but I was
wondering if there are more and if there is a list somewhere or if not -
how I can easily find out.

The answer may of course very well be "read the autoconf files" -
whichever they are. :) Just thought I should ask first.

And the reason again is that I am now maintaining a Squeak (and
Squeak-beta) source distro module for Lunar Linux, which is a distro
that builds everything from source (like Gentoo) and my current
Squeak-beta module nicely asks if you want a 32 or 64 bit VM, so I
wondered if I could perhaps ask more nice questions with good defaults
:).

regards, Göran

PS. Lunar is really nice. Debian feels rather clunky now in
comparison...

Re: Unix [Mac OS] VM config options?

John Dougan
Give the --help option to configure. Or read the autoconf files.

On a 3.7-b build kit I'm messing with:

Rachiel:~/projects/spoon-vm/shrink/platforms/unix jdougan$
config/configure --help
`configure' configures this package to adapt to many kinds of systems.

Usage: config/configure [OPTION]... [VAR=VALUE]...

To assign environment variables (e.g., CC, CFLAGS...), specify them as
VAR=VALUE.  See below for descriptions of some of the useful variables.

Defaults for the options are specified in brackets.

Configuration:
  -h, --help              display this help and exit
      --help=short        display options specific to this package
      --help=recursive    display the short help of all the included
packages
  -V, --version           display version information and exit
  -q, --quiet, --silent   do not print `checking...' messages
      --cache-file=FILE   cache test results in FILE [disabled]
  -C, --config-cache      alias for `--cache-file=config.cache'
  -n, --no-create         do not create output files
      --srcdir=DIR        find the sources in DIR [configure dir or `..']

Installation directories:
  --prefix=PREFIX         install architecture-independent files in PREFIX
                          [/usr/local]
  --exec-prefix=EPREFIX   install architecture-dependent files in EPREFIX
                          [PREFIX]

By default, `make install' will install all the files in
`/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/lib' etc.  You can specify
an installation prefix other than `/usr/local' using `--prefix',
for instance `--prefix=$HOME'.

For better control, use the options below.

Fine tuning of the installation directories:
  --bindir=DIR           user executables [EPREFIX/bin]
  --sbindir=DIR          system admin executables [EPREFIX/sbin]
  --libexecdir=DIR       program executables [EPREFIX/libexec]
  --datadir=DIR          read-only architecture-independent data
[PREFIX/share]
  --sysconfdir=DIR       read-only single-machine data [PREFIX/etc]
  --sharedstatedir=DIR   modifiable architecture-independent data
[PREFIX/com]
  --localstatedir=DIR    modifiable single-machine data [PREFIX/var]
  --libdir=DIR           object code libraries [EPREFIX/lib]
  --includedir=DIR       C header files [PREFIX/include]
  --oldincludedir=DIR    C header files for non-gcc [/usr/include]
  --infodir=DIR          info documentation [PREFIX/info]
  --mandir=DIR           man documentation [PREFIX/man]

X features:
  --x-includes=DIR    X include files are in DIR
  --x-libraries=DIR   X library files are in DIR

System types:
  --build=BUILD     configure for building on BUILD [guessed]
  --host=HOST       cross-compile to build programs to run on HOST [BUILD]

Optional Features:
  --disable-FEATURE       do not include FEATURE (same as
--enable-FEATURE=no)
  --enable-FEATURE[=ARG]  include FEATURE [ARG=yes]
  --enable-static[=PKGS]
                          build static libraries [default=no]
  --enable-shared[=PKGS]
                          build shared libraries [default=yes]
  --enable-fast-install[=PKGS]
                          optimize for fast installation [default=yes]
  --disable-libtool-lock  avoid locking (might break parallel builds)
  --disable-iconv         disable iconv support default=enabled
  --enable-mpg-mmx        enable MMX support in Mpeg3Plugin default=no
  --enable-mpg-pthreads   enable pthread support in Mpeg3Plugin default=no

Optional Packages:
  --with-PACKAGE[=ARG]    use PACKAGE [ARG=yes]
  --without-PACKAGE       do not use PACKAGE (same as --with-PACKAGE=no)
  --with-src=dir          generated src directory default=src
  --with-gnu-awk          assume that awk is GNU gawk default=no
  --with-gnu-as           assume that as is the GNU assembler default=no
  --with-gnu-ld           assume the C compiler uses GNU ld [default=no]
  --with-pic              try to use only PIC/non-PIC objects [default=use
                          both]
  --with-tags[=TAGS]
                          include additional configurations [automatic]
  --without-rfb           disable Remote FrameBuffer support default=enabled
  --without-npsqueak      disable browser plugin support default=enabled
  --without-quartz        disable MacOSX Window System support
default=enabled
  --without-x             disable X Window System support default=enabled
  --with-x                use the X Window System
  --with-ffi=ffi          use FFI support default=auto

Some influential environment variables:
  CC          C compiler command
  CFLAGS      C compiler flags
  LDFLAGS     linker flags, e.g. -L<lib dir> if you have libraries in a
              nonstandard directory <lib dir>
  CPPFLAGS    C/C++ preprocessor flags, e.g. -I<include dir> if you have
              headers in a nonstandard directory <include dir>
  CPP         C preprocessor
  CXX         C++ compiler command
  CXXFLAGS    C++ compiler flags
  CXXCPP      C++ preprocessor
  F77         Fortran 77 compiler command
  FFLAGS      Fortran 77 compiler flags

Use these variables to override the choices made by `configure' or to help
it to find libraries and programs with nonstandard names/locations.

Great! Thanks! And... jikes. That's a lot of options. :)
