<h3>Prerequisites for building</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
To build synergy from the sources you'll need the following:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Windows
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>VC++ 6.0 or up
|
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Unix
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>gcc 2.95 or up
|
|
|
|
|
<li>X11R4 or up headers and libraries
|
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Mac OS X
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>XCode; or gcc 2.95 or up
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Carbon development headers and libraries
|
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3>Configuring the build</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
This step is not necessary when using VC++ or XCode.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
To configure the build for your platform use the configure script:
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
./configure
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
For a list of options to configure use:
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
./configure --help
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
On Solaris you may need to use:
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
<nobr>./configure --x-includes=/usr/openwin/include --x-libraries=/usr/openwin/lib</nobr>
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
so synergy can find the X11 includes and libraries.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3>Building</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Windows
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
Start VC++ and open <span class="code">synergy.dsw</span>. Set the
|
|
|
|
|
active configuration (Build > Set Active Configuration) to
|
|
|
|
|
<span class="code">All - Debug</span> or <span class="code">All -
|
|
|
|
|
Release</span> then build. Binaries are built into
|
|
|
|
|
<span class="code">./debug</span> or <span class="code">./build</span>.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Unix or Mac OS X without XCode
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
Simply enter:
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
This will build the client and server and leave them in their
|
|
|
|
|
respective source directories.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Mac OS X with XCode
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
2005-01-01 20:52:01 +00:00
|
|
|
Start XCode and open the <span class="code">synergy.xcode</span>
|
2004-08-01 16:00:18 +00:00
|
|
|
project. Build the <span class="code">all</span> project using
|
|
|
|
|
the <span class="code">Deployment</span> flavor.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3>Installing</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Windows
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
You'll need <a href="http://nsis.sourceforge.net/">NSIS</a>, the
|
|
|
|
|
Nullsoft Scriptable Install System. Build <span class="code">All -
|
|
|
|
|
Release</span> then build <span class="code">Installer - Release</span>.
|
2005-01-01 20:52:01 +00:00
|
|
|
This creates <span class="code">SynergyInstaller.exe</span> in the
|
|
|
|
|
<span class="code">build</span> directory. Run this to install synergy.
|
2004-08-01 16:00:18 +00:00
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can simply copy the following files from the
|
|
|
|
|
<span class="code">debug</span> or <span class="code">build</span>
|
|
|
|
|
directory to a directory you choose (perhaps under the
|
|
|
|
|
<span class="code">Program Files</span> directory):
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ul class="code">
|
|
|
|
|
<li>synergy.exe
|
|
|
|
|
<li>synergyc.exe
|
|
|
|
|
<li>synergys.exe
|
|
|
|
|
<li>synrgyhk.dll
|
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Unix or Mac OS X without XCode
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
will install the client and server into
|
|
|
|
|
<span class="code">/usr/local/bin</span> unless you
|
|
|
|
|
specified a different directory when you ran configure.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Mac OS X with XCode
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
Copy the following files from ./build to a convenient location:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ul class="code">
|
|
|
|
|
<li>synergyc
|
|
|
|
|
<li>synergys
|
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
