42 | =head1 BUILDING PERL ON DG/UX
|
---|
43 |
|
---|
44 | =head2 Non-threaded Perl on DG/UX
|
---|
45 |
|
---|
46 | Just run ./Configure script from the top directory.
|
---|
47 | Then give "make" to compile.
|
---|
48 |
|
---|
49 | =head2 Threaded Perl on DG/UX
|
---|
50 |
|
---|
51 | If you are using as compiler GCC-2.95.x rev(DG/UX)
|
---|
52 | an easy solution for configuring perl in your DG/UX
|
---|
53 | machine is to run the command:
|
---|
54 |
|
---|
55 | ./Configure -Dusethreads -Duseithreads -Dusedevel -des
|
---|
56 |
|
---|
57 | This will automatically accept all the defaults and
|
---|
58 | in particular /usr/local/ as installation directory.
|
---|
59 | Note that GCC-2.95.x rev(DG/UX) knows the switch
|
---|
60 | -pthread which allows it to link correctly DG/UX's
|
---|
61 | -lthread library.
|
---|
62 |
|
---|
63 | If you want to change the installation directory or
|
---|
64 | have a standard DG/UX with C compiler GCC-2.7.2.x
|
---|
65 | then you have no choice than to do an interactive
|
---|
66 | build by issuing the command:
|
---|
67 |
|
---|
68 | ./Configure -Dusethreads -Duseithreads
|
---|
69 |
|
---|
70 | In particular with GCC-2.7.2.x accept all the defaults
|
---|
71 | and *watch* out for the message:
|
---|
72 |
|
---|
73 | Any additional ld flags (NOT including libraries)? [ -pthread]
|
---|
74 |
|
---|
75 | Instead of -pthread put here -lthread. CGCC-2.7.2.x
|
---|
76 | that comes with the DG/UX OS does NOT know the -pthread
|
---|
77 | switch. So your build will fail if you choose the defaults.
|
---|
78 | After configuration is done correctly give "make" to compile.
|
---|
79 |
|
---|
80 | =head2 Testing Perl on DG/UX
|
---|
81 |
|
---|
82 | Issuing a "make test" will run all the tests.
|
---|
83 | If the test lib/ftmp-security gives you as a result
|
---|
84 | something like
|
---|
85 |
|
---|
86 | lib/ftmp-security....File::Temp::_gettemp:
|
---|
87 | Parent directory (/tmp/) is not safe (sticky bit not set
|
---|
88 | when world writable?) at lib/ftmp-security.t line 100
|
---|
89 |
|
---|
90 | don't panic and just set the sticky bit in your /tmp
|
---|
91 | directory by doing the following as root:
|
---|
92 |
|
---|
93 | cd /
|
---|
94 | chmod +t /tmp (=set the sticky bit to /tmp).
|
---|
95 |
|
---|
96 | Then rerun the tests. This time all must be OK.
|
---|
97 |
|
---|
98 | =head2 Installing the built perl on DG/UX
|
---|
99 |
|
---|
100 | Run the command "make install"
