[comp.sys.sgi] how to compile jove?

mbp@LAKISIS.UMD.EDU (Mark Phillips) (04/24/89)

    I just retrieved version 4.12 of jove from tut.cis.ohio-state.edu
and am having trouble compiling it on an IRIS.  I think this is due to
my ignorance about the IRIS flavor of Unix --- there are various
settings in the jove Makefile for specifying which Unix one has, and I
don't know how these should be set.

    Has anyone out there successfully compiled jove on an IRIS?  Can
you tell me how to set things up in the Makefile, and whether I need
to do anything else special?

    I am using one IRIS 3130 and one 2400 Turbo.


    Thanks,

If your sources are like mine, there should be a set of System V configuration
switches in the lower-level Makefile.  I believe that this is what you want
for the Iris, at least it works on IRIS 4D/60T running IRIX 3.1.  Below is
what the relevant portion of mine looks like; your sources may vary:

# For System 5
CC = cc
CFLAGS= -O -DSYS5 -Dindex=strchr -Drindex=strrchr
LB=    -lcurses
