In order to build the library, read the `BUILD' document in the `docs'
directory. This is only a quick starter:
I. From the command line:
You need to have GNU Make installed on your system to compile the
library from the command line. This will _not_ work with other
Make tools (including the BSD ones !!)
- Go to the 'freetype2' directory
- on Unix (any C compiler should work):
- make setup (don't worry, this will invoke a configure script)
- make
- make install
alternatively, you can pass parameters to the configure script
with the CFG variable, as in:
- make setup CFG="--prefix=/usr"
- make
- make install
- On Windows:
we provide a version of GNU Make for Win32 on the FreeType site.
See http://www.freetype.org/download.html for details..
o if you're using gcc:
- make setup
- make
o if you're using Visual C++:
- make setup visualc
- make
o if you're using Win32-lCC:
- make setup lcc
- make
o if you're using the Borland C++ Builder compiler:
- make setup bcc32
- make
II. In your own environment (IDE):
you need to add the directories "freetype2/include" and "freetype2/src"
to your include path when compiling the library.
compile each library component through the following files:
-- base components (required)
src/base/ftsystem.c
src/base/ftinit.c
src/base/ftdebug.c
src/base/ftbase.c
src/base/ftglyph.c
src/base/ftbbox.c
src/base/ftmm.c
src/base/ftmac.c -- only on the Macintosh
-- other components are optional
src/autohint/autohint.c -- auto hinting module
src/cache/ftcache.c -- cache sub-system (in beta)
src/sfnt/sfnt.c -- SFNT files support (TrueType & OpenType)
src/cff/cff.c -- CFF/OpenType font driver
src/psnames/psnames.c -- Postscript glyph names support
src/psaux/psaux.c -- Postscript Type 1 parsing
src/truetype/truetype.c -- TrueType font driver
src/type1/type1.c -- Type 1 font driver
src/cid/type1cid.c -- Type 1 CID-keyed font driver
src/winfonts/winfonts.c -- Windows FONT / FNT font driver
note that:
'truetype.c' needs 'sfnt.c' and 'psnames.c'
'type1.c' needs 'psaux.c' and 'psnames.c'
'type1cid.c' needs 'psaux.c' and 'psnames.c'
'cff.c' needs 'sfnt.c', 'psaux.c' and 'psnames.c'
etc.
