This also works for emulations like Cygwin +or MSys on Win32: + + + 1. Ensure that you are using GNU Make + ------------------------------------- + + The FreeType build system _exclusively_ works with GNU Make. You + will not be able to compile the library with the instructions + below using any other alternative (including BSD Make). + + Check that you have GNU make by running the command: + + make -v + + This should dump some text that begins with: + + GNU Make + Copyright (C) Free Software Foundation Inc. + + Note that version 3.80 or higher is *required* or the build will + fail. + + It is also fine to have GNU Make under another name (e.g. 'gmake') + if you use the GNUMAKE variable as described below. + + As a special exception, 'makepp' can also be used to build + FreeType 2. See the file docs/MAKEPP for details. + + + 2. Regenerate the configure script if needed + -------------------------------------------- + + This only applies if you are building a git snapshot or checkout, + *not* if you grabbed the sources of an official release. + + You need to invoke the `autogen.sh' script in the top-level + directory in order to create the `configure' script for your + platform. Normally, this simply means typing: + + sh autogen.sh + + In case of problems, you may need to install or upgrade Automake, + Autoconf or Libtool. See README.git in the top-level directory + for more information. + + + 3. Build and install the library + -------------------------------- + + The following should work on all Unix systems where the `make' + command invokes GNU Make: + + ./configure [options] + make + make install (as root) + + The default installation path is `/usr/local'. It can be changed + with the `--prefix=' option. Example: + + ./configure --prefix=/usr + + When using a different command to invoke GNU Make, use the GNUMAKE + variable. For example, if `gmake' is the command to use on your + system, do something like: + + GNUMAKE=gmake ./configure [options] + gmake + gmake install (as root) + + If this still doesn't work, there must be a problem with your + system (e.g., you are using a very old version of GNU Make). + + It is possible to compile FreeType in a different directory. + Assuming the FreeType source files in directory `/src/freetype' a + compilation in directory `foo' works as follows: + + cd foo + /src/freetype/configure [options] + make + make install + +---------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Copyright 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 by +David Turner, Robert Wilhelm, and Werner Lemberg. + +This file is part of the FreeType project, and may only be used, +modified, and distributed under the terms of the FreeType project +license, LICENSE.TXT.
