- If you would like to build binary images on OS/2 yourself, you will need
- a few Unix-like tools: autoconf, autoheader and sh. These tools will be
- used to create the required config.h file, which is not part of the
- source distribution because it differs based on platform. You will also
- need a compiler.
- The distribution has been created using IBM VisualAge compilers, but you
- can use any compiler you like. GCC/EMX has the disadvantage of needing
- to be single-threaded due to a limitation of EMX's implementation of the
- <function>select()</function> socket call.

- In addition to needing the source code distribution as outlined earlier,
- you will want to extract the <filename>os2seutp</filename> directory from CVS:
- <screen>
- cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.ijbswa.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/ijbswa login
- cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.ijbswa.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/ijbswa co os2setup
- </screen>
- This will create a directory named os2setup/, which will contain the
- <filename>Makefile.vac</filename> makefile and <filename>os2build.cmd</filename>
- which is used to completely create the binary distribution. The sequence
- of events for building the executable for yourself goes something like this:
- <screen>
- cd current
- autoheader
- autoconf
- sh configure
- cd ..\os2setup
- nmake -f Makefile.vac
- </screen>
- You will see this sequence laid out in <filename>os2build.cmd</filename>.
