This package is: - How to build a DLL jumptable version of libf2c.a It is based on: - Eric Youngdale's package of tools for building DLL libraries. It contains: - Unmodified sources of the f2c library. Version 0.9.2 of the lib contains the 15 mar 94 f2c library sources. - An 'f2c' binary built with the 15 mar 94 source. - a few scripts that can help rebuilding the library. It was designed by: - Rob Hooft (hooft@EMBL-Heidelberg.DE) With help of: - David Engel (david@ods.com), the original author of the JumpTables. - H.J. Lu (hlu@nynexst.com), the maintainer of our GCC and libc. - the DLL tools 2.11 package by Eric Youngdale. To build the lib (you don't need to if you trust me): - you probably need f2c.h someplace. - you need an installed 'tools' package. Get it from tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/packages/GCC/src. - Type './make.clean' (if needed). - Type './make.shared' to make the shared lib. - Type './make.clean' (you must!). - Type './make.static' to make the static lib. To install the lib: - copy libf2c.sa to /usr/lib - copy libf2c.so.0.9.2 to /lib - ln -s /lib/libf2c.so.0.9.2 /lib/libf2c.so.0 - copy libf2c.a to /usr/lib Warning: - You may need a DLL libc.so.4.5.21 or newer to make use of this f2c library and binary.
