There is also a public domain +clone available (MMK) and I think, but it is not tested, that this +utility will give (hardly) any problem. + +To make everything just type MMS (or MMK) in the main directory of +mesagl. For MMS the deafult makefile is called descrip.mms, and +that is what I have called it. I included alse some config files, +all having mms somewhere in the name which all the makefiles need +(just as your unix makefiles). + +On Alpha platforms at default a sharable images for the libraries are created. +To get a static library make it by typing MMS/MACRO=(NOSHARE=1). +On VAX platforms only static libraries can be build. + +23-sep-2005 +changed default compilation to use /float=ieee/ieee=denorm. The reason for +this is that it makes Mesa on OpenVMS better compatible with other platforms +and other packages for VMS that I maintain. +For more information see + http://nchrem.tnw.tudelft.nl/openvms + https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4270 +You may want to compile Mesa to use VAX-floating point arithmetic, instead +of IEEE floating point by removing the /float=IEEE/denorm flag from the +compiler options in the descrip.mms files. |
