Bohm) Message-Id: <199508010004.UAA20132@gagarin.cs.Buffalo.EDU> To: ptk@WPI.EDU Subject: TkPerl install on SCO ODT 3.0 (my hacks) Sender: owner-ptk@WPI.EDU Precedence: bulk P-From: "Eric J. Bohm" To compile Tk-b6 on SCO ODT 3.0 using perl-5.001m: I Had to comment out this line in the myConfig file used by MakeMaker. #$define .= " -DHAVE_SYS_SELECT_H" if ($Config{'i_sysselct'}); sys/select.h in SCO has a time definition that conflicts with sys/time.h Also needed to change all the GNUmakefile files to change -include $(wildcard *.d) to include $(wildcard *.d) Our GNU make 3.67 blows up on those lines. Since its over two years old, I guess we're a little overdue for an upgrade there. Downloading and upgrading make soon, I'll post an update if that noticably improves things. With those revisions in place I can build a statically linked tkperl (SCO doesn't seem inclined to build a dynamic perl no matter how hard I hack at it). Runs all the demos quite nicely. Now I'm off to learn tkperl programming from the UserGuide. I can make a diff patch if anyone's that keen on the results. thanks EJB
