2. Compiling and Installation
-To create a set of binaries it is important to follow these steps. This
-will build a statically linked executable /opt/bin/fgfs
-
- 1. Install GLUT, Zlib and MetaKit.
- 2. Extract, configure and install Plib:
- automake -a -i
- CXXFLAGS="-O2 -I/opt/include" LDFLAGS="-L/opt/lib32"
- ./configure --prefix=/opt --libdir=/opt/lib32
- make install
+NOTE: Make sure automake version 1.8.1 or later is installed !!!
- 3. Extract, configure and install SimGear:
- CXXFLAGS="-O2" LDFLAGS="-L/opt/lib32"
- ./configure --prefix=/opt --libdir=/opt/lib32 --without-logging
- make install
-
- 4. Extract, configure and install FlightGear:
- CXXFLAGS="-O2" CFLAGS="-O2 -Xcpluscomm" LDFLAGS="-L/opt/lib32"
- ./configure --prefix=/opt --with-simgear=/opt --without-loging
- make install

-The irix-hack.sh script fixes some compiler specific problems which were
-introduced after the adoption of the C++ Standard Template Library.
+To create a set of binaries it is important to follow these steps. This
+will build a statically linked executable /opt/bin/fgfs
-The "automake -a -i" command is required because automake with automatic
-dependency building breaks the native Irix compilers.
+ 1. Install GLUT and Zlib
+ 2. Configure and install plib
+ 3. After extracting SimGear and FlightGear make sure to run autogen.sh first.
+ This will fix a linker problem for MipsPro compilers.
+ 4. Configure and install SimGear and then FlightGear
3. Running
