| 5 6The simplest way to compile readline is: 7 8 1. `cd' to the directory containing the readline source code and type 9 `./configure' to configure readline for your system. If you're 10 using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type 11 `sh ./configure' instead to prevent `csh' from trying to execute 12 `configure' itself. --- 220 unchanged lines hidden (view full) --- 233 creation. Many systems use the -R option to the link 234 editor to embed a path within the library for run-time 235 library searches. A reasonable value for such systems would 236 be `-R$(libdir)'. 237 238SHLIB_LIBS Any additional libraries that shared libraries should be 239 linked against when they are created. 240 | 5 6The simplest way to compile readline is: 7 8 1. `cd' to the directory containing the readline source code and type 9 `./configure' to configure readline for your system.

| 241SHLIB_LIBPREF The prefix to use when generating the filename of the shared 242 library. The default is `lib'; Cygwin uses `cyg'. 243 |
|
| 241SHLIB_LIBSUFF The suffix to add to `libreadline' and `libhistory' when 242 generating the filename of the shared library. Many systems 243 use `so'; HP-UX uses `sl'. 244 245SHLIB_LIBVERSION The string to append to the filename to indicate the version 246 of the shared library. It should begin with $(SHLIB_LIBSUFF), 247 and possibly include version information that allows the 248 run-time loader to load the version of the shared library 249 appropriate for a particular program. Systems using shared 250 libraries similar to SunOS 4.x use major and minor library 251 version numbers; for those systems a value of 252 `$(SHLIB_LIBSUFF).$(SHLIB_MAJOR)$(SHLIB_MINOR)' is appropriate. 253 Systems based on System V Release 4 don't use minor version 254 numbers; use `$(SHLIB_LIBSUFF).$(SHLIB_MAJOR)' on those systems. 255 Other Unix versions use different schemes. 256 | 244SHLIB_LIBSUFF The suffix to add to `libreadline' and `libhistory' when 245 generating the filename of the shared library.

| 260SHLIB_DLLVERSION The version number for shared libraries that determines API 261 compatibility between readline versions and the underlying 262 system. Used only on Cygwin. Defaults to $SHLIB_MAJOR, but 263 can be overridden at configuration time by defining DLLVERSION 264 in the environment. 265 266SHLIB_DOT The character used to separate the name of the shared library 267 from the suffix and version information. The default is `.'; 268 systems like Cygwin which don't separate version information 269 from the library name should set this to the empty string. 270 |

| 257SHLIB_STATUS Set this to `supported' when you have defined the other 258 necessary variables. Make uses this to determine whether 259 or not shared library creation should be attempted. If 260 shared libraries are not supported, this will be set to 261 `unsupported'. 262 263You should look at the existing stanzas in support/shobj-conf for ideas. 264 265Once you have updated support/shobj-conf, re-run configure and type 266`make shared' or `make'. The shared libraries will be created in the 267shlib subdirectory. 268 269If shared libraries are created, `make install' will install them. 270You may install only the shared libraries by running `make 271install-shared' from the top-level build directory. Running `make 272install' in the shlib subdirectory will also work.
