Important: The RC compiler that ships with the new toolkit (CP2) does not work correctly.
We have made a new resource compiler available.
Warpzilla Build Instructions Part One - Requirements (10/07/2002)
This document explains what tools are required to build Warpzilla. We have tried to be as detailed
as possible with these instructions. After each item is instructions on how to install it. This document
is designed for someone creating a build environment from scratch. The build environment works best
when all the tools are placed on a single drive. For our examples, we will use D:.
The following packages are required for both VisualAge and GCC builds
- EMX Runtime
Unzip EMXRT.ZIP in the root directory. It will create a directory called EMX.
Add D:\EMX\DLL to your LIBPATH in CONFIG.SYS.
- autoconf
UPDATED for Mozilla 1.4
Unzip AUTOCONF.ZIP in the root directory. It will create a directory called AUTOCONF.
- glib AND libidl
Unzip GLIBIDL.ZIP in the root directory. It will create a directory called GLIBIDL.
- Perl 5.8.0 (bin
& core)
UPDATED for Mozilla 1.4
Unzip both zips in the root directory. It will create a
directory called PERL.
In the file PERL\LIB\5.8.0\OS2\CONFIG.PM, find the "archlib"
tag (line 120) and change the drive letter to point to where you
have installed PERL.
Note:For the following packages, you only need to extract the files we specify from the ZIPs. We recommend putting all of the following EXEs and DLLs in one directory called MOZTOOLS.
The following packages are required only for the VisualAge build
The following packages are required only for the GCC build
The following OS/2 utilities are required for the GCC build only
- RC.EXE
- LINK386.EXE
To verify that you have these utilities, check in the OS2 directory on your boot drive. If you do not have these utilities,
you can install them by running OS/2 selective install and selecting "Link Object Modules" on the "Optional System Utilities" page.
