INTRODUCTION
==============
FLTK currently supports the following development environments on vmost Unix
platforms:
- gcc command line tools
- Code::Blocks
- ...
PREREQUISITES
===============
Ubuntu 10
-----------
Ubuntu Linux can be downloaded here:
www.ubuntu.com
If you have not done so yet, download and install Ubuntu.
Open a shell and install some software:
sudo apt-get install g++
sudo apt-get install gdb
sudo apt-get install subversion
sudo apt-get install autoconf
sudo apt-get install libx11-dev
sudo apt-get install libglu1-mesa-dev
sudo apt-get install libasound2-dev
sudo apt-get install libxft-dev
If you are planning to use the Code::Blocks IDE, also install this
sudo apt-get install codeblocks
I like to use subversion to install the latest FLTK-1.3.release:
svn co http://svn.easysw.com/public/fltk/fltk/branches/branch-1.3/ fltk-1.3
To update to the latest version, just go into the fltk-1.3 directory and type
svn update
FIXME: no FL_SYMBOL font (-*-symbol-*), font 15 (Zapf-Dingbats)
HOW TO BUILD FLTK USING GCC
=============================
Downloading and Unpacking
---------------------------
Download FLTK from here:
http://www.fltk.org/software.php
If you are familiar with "subversion" and like to stay current with your
version, you will find the subversion access parameters at the bottom of that
page. Unpack FLTK into a convinient location. I like to have everything in my
dev directory:
cd
mkdir dev
cd dev
mv ~/Downloads/fltk-1.3.xxxx.tar.gz .
tar xvfz fltk-1.3.xxxx.tar.gz
cd fltk-1.3.xxxx
Configuring FLTK
------------------
Stay in your FLTK source-code directory. Type:
autoconf
Now configure your FLTK installation:
./configure
ADVANCED: type "./configure --help" to get a complete list of optional
configurations parameters. These should be pretty self-explenatory. Some
more details can be found in README.
:END_ADVANCED
The configuration script will check your machine for the required resources
which you should have installed as described in the Perequisites chapter. Review
the Configuration Summary, maybe take some notes.
Building FLTK
---------------
Now this is easy. Stay in your FLTK source-code directory and type:
make
The entire FLTK toolkit including many test programs will be built for you. No
warnings should appear. If some do, please let the FLTK developer team know via
the mailing list or the bug reporting template at www.fltk.org .
Actually, as of Oct 28 2010, quite a bunch of warnigns will show, mostly about
suggested parenthesis. Please ignore them until we can fix them.
Testing FLTK
--------------
After a successful build, you can test FLTK's capabilities:
test/demo
Installing FLTK
-----------------
If you did not change any of the configuration settings, FLTK will be installed
in "/usr/local/include" and "/usr/local/lib" by typing
sudo make install
It is possible to install FLTK without superuser previleges by changing the
installation path to a location within the user account by adding the
"--prefix=PREFIX" parameters to the "./configure" command.
Creating new Projects
-----------------------
FLTK provides a neat script named "fltk-config" that can provide all the flags
needed to build FLTK applications using the same flags that were used to build
the library itself. Running "fltk-config" without arguments will print a list
options. The easiest call to compile an FLTK application from a single source
file is:
fltk-config --compile myProgram.cxx
"fltk-config" and "fluid" will be installed in "/usr/local/bin/" by default. I
recommend that you add it to the command search path.
