---------- Unloading Spice3 from disk or tape
The Unix distribution comes on 1/2" 9-track tape, 8mm tape, or DEC TK50 tape
in "tar" format. The MS-DOS distribution comes on several 3.5" floppy
diskettes (both high and low density) in the standard MS-DOS format.
The contents of both distributions are identical, including filenames,
except for the additional files on the MS-DOS disks used for automatic
unloading.
The source code and associated data files for spice3f.4 require over 6MB,
and up to an additional 22MB may be required to compile under Unix (for a
DEC RISC workstation with the compiler option '-g'). For MS-DOS using
MicroSoft C 5.1 or later, nearly 8MB (beyond the 6MB for the source) is
required.
UNIX: The UNIX distribution of Spice3f.4 comes in "tar" format. To
extract Spice3f.4 first create the directory that you wish to
hold the distribution and "cd" into that directory. Then
execute the command "tar x" (after mounting the tape). Note
that some sites may require that you explicitly indicate the
tape drive name when using the "tar" command; this is done with
the 'f' flag, for example "tar xf /dev/rmt0h".
MS-DOS: Spice3f.4 comes on MS-DOS format 3.5" disks. To extract the
distribution onto a hard disk, create the directory on the hard
disk that you wish to hold the source code. "cd" into that
directory on the hard disk. For each of the distributed disks,
IN ORDER, insert the disk into the drive (we'll assume drive
"B:" here), and enter "B:UNLOAD B:". This will use the script
"unload.bat" to extract the source files off of the disk and
into the current directory or a subdirectory of the current
directory. You might see the error "File not found
??.
",
that is normal.
Converting the MS-DOS format disks to UNIX: The MS-DOS format is not
directly readable by UNIX systems. One publically available
tool for doing this is known as "mtools" (search popular
ftp sites), but this is not the only method. Note: In MS-DOS,
text file lines end with "^M^J", where under UNIX lines end only
with "^J". Also, execute permission needs to be set on all
files in the "util/" subdirectory when moving to UNIX.
MAC: Spice3 is not distributed in a format for the Apple MacIntosh. You
must determine how to transfer the files to a Mac from the media that
you have.
---------- Compiling Spice3f.4 under UNIX
To build Spice3f.4 on a Unix system follow the steps below.
For additional notes on internal changes and porting issues,
please inspect the subdirectory "notes".
First you must edit the file "conf/defaults" and change the
listed parameters to reflect the standard organization of
software at your site. A description of each parameter is
included in this file.
Second, for each type of system at your site, you must provide
a file in the same subdirectory ("conf/") which contains
exceptions to the previously edited "defaults" file; note that
even if you are supporting one type of system with no
exceptions this is still necessary. Several files are supplied for
the system types that have been tested with this distribution,
including "mips" (for DECstations), "sun4", "sequent", "irix",
"hpux", and "rs6000".
Note that some of these per-system definition files have
special definitions which are required for the given system and
which do not appear in the "defaults" file.
Note also that successful compiling does not depend on the
particular names given to these 'exception' or 'system
definition' files. For example, the "mips" configuration file
could have been named "decstation"; this name is used for
generating unique directory names such that different systems
to not use the same area for the compile process (more detail
are listed in the "defaults" file).
Finally, it is possible to combine additional files
After the defaults file has been edited and a system-dependent
file created or modified,
run the command "util/build system" from the directory above the "util" subdirectory; for "system"
you must substitute the name of the system-dependent file that
you created or modified in the previous step. Spice3 will then
be built via recursive "make" commands (it may take a several
seconds to get going on some systems). The total time can be
as little as 20 minutes or as long as four hours depending on
the speed and load of your system. Compiling across NFS will
slow down compiling significantly.
If you have trouble using the "build" script, try "build -help"
for infomation on debugging options. Some system combinations
may require listing more than one system name on the "build" line,
for example "build hpux hp300" to build on an HP 9000/300 as
opposed to a HP 9000/700. When the build script has successfully
completed, see the section below on Installing Spice3.
---------- Additional Notes on Compiling Spice3f.4 under UNIX
NOTE: Some systems have a problem with directory names containing
a "-" in either the full source directory name or the full directory
name of any program used in compiling. This may show up as an
unexpected or unreasonable error message. Avoid directory names
with a "-" (this is an old bug in the "make" command, which has
propagated to many vendors before being fixed).
NOTE: On some systems, the "build" scripts seems sluggish. This
may be caused by a long "$PATH", with many entries before "/bin"
and "/usr/bin"; you may be able to speed up the script by trimming
your "$PATH" before running the build script.
NOTE (SunOS): There is small bug somewhere in one version of the
Sun-supplied X11 libraries. This bug results in the following
routines being undefined in the "link" stage:
_get_wmShellWidgetClass
_get_applicationShellWidgetClass
This is apparently a problem with the dynamic-link version of the
"Xmu" library. If you have this problem, the best reported fix is
to use the following options on the "link" line (embed the following
in the LIBX variable in "conf/sun4", or wherever):
-Bstatic -lXmu -Bdynamic
This is anticipated in a comment in the current copy of "conf/sun4".
NOTE: GNU make is not compatible with the traditional "make", and
is not compatible with spice3. Using GNU make may result in
infinite recursion.
