well the first time I got pages of errors, but I am sure I didnt do it right. I just ran the make file at the root of the CVS directory. I dont even know what you mean by configure, make, make, check, and make install. (I told you I am a unix/make ninny!)
anyway I did get darwinports to do the build. Of course that doesnt bridge the gap in my need to really develop an understanding of the make tools, but at least I have it compiled for now. Regarding modifying the neko make file I am going to take a look and see if I can figure out exactly where to put the mods. Hank On 6/10/06, Alex Drahon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Well, if you use Darwinports, you'll have to modify neko's Makefile for inclusion of /opt/local/include and /opt/local/lib I have successfully built Boehm GC 6.7 with configure, make, make check and make install, what error did you get?
