You can also run the individual commands in -autogen.sh with the --force option, if supported by your version of -the tools. To be really sure that you aren't using any of the included -pre-built scripts, you can do this: - - ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode - make maintainer-clean - ./autogen.sh - ./configure [--prefix=/path] [other options] - make - make install - make check - -Instead, you can use one of the custom-built makefiles in the -"scripts" directory - - cp scripts/makefile.system makefile - make test - make install - -The files that are presently available in the scripts directory -are listed and described in scripts/README.txt. - -Or you can use one of the "projects" in the "projects" directory. - -Before installing libpng, you must first install zlib, if it -is not already on your system. zlib can usually be found -wherever you got libpng. zlib can be placed in another directory, -at the same level as libpng. - -If you want to use "cmake" (see www.cmake.org), type - - cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path - make - make install - -If your system already has a preinstalled zlib you will still need -to have access to the zlib.h and zconf.h include files that -correspond to the version of zlib that's installed. - -You can rename the directories that you downloaded (they -might be called "libpng-x.y.z" or "libpngNN" and "zlib-1.2.5" -or "zlib125") so that you have directories called "zlib" and "libpng". - -Your directory structure should look like this: - - .. (the parent directory) - libpng (this directory) - INSTALL (this file) - README - *.h - *.c - CMakeLists.txt => "cmake" script - configuration files: - configure.ac, configure, Makefile.am, Makefile.in, - autogen.sh, config.guess, ltmain.sh, missing, libpng.pc.in, - libpng-config.in, aclocal.m4, config.h.in, config.sub, - depcomp, install-sh, mkinstalldirs, test-pngtest.sh - contrib - gregbook - pngminim - pngminus - pngsuite - visupng - projects - visualc71 - vstudio - scripts - makefile.* - *.def (module definition files) - etc. - pngtest.png - etc. - zlib - README - *.h - *.c - contrib - etc. - -If the line endings in the files look funny, you may wish to get the other -distribution of libpng. It is available in both tar.gz (UNIX style line -endings) and zip (DOS style line endings) formats. - -If you are building libpng with MSVC, you can enter the -libpng projects\visualc6 or visualc71 directory and follow the instructions -in README.txt. - -Otherwise enter the zlib directory and follow the instructions in zlib/README, -then come back here and run "configure" or choose the appropriate -makefile.sys in the scripts directory. - -Copy the file (or files) that you need from the -scripts directory into this directory, for example - - MSDOS example: copy scripts\makefile.msc makefile - UNIX example: cp scripts/makefile.std makefile - -Read the makefile to see if you need to change any source or -target directories to match your preferences. - -Then read pnglibconf.dfa to see if you want to make any configuration -changes. - -Then just run "make" which will create the libpng library in -this directory and "make test" which will run a quick test that reads -the "pngtest.png" file and writes a "pngout.png" file that should be -identical to it. Look for "9782 zero samples" in the output of the -test. For more confidence, you can run another test by typing -"pngtest pngnow.png" and looking for "289 zero samples" in the output. -Also, you can run "pngtest -m contrib/pngsuite/*.png" and compare -your output with the result shown in contrib/pngsuite/README. - -Most of the makefiles will allow you to run "make install" to -put the library in its final resting place (if you want to -do that, run "make install" in the zlib directory first if necessary). -Some also allow you to run "make test-installed" after you have -run "make install". - -Further information can be found in the README and libpng-manual.txt -files, in the individual makefiles, in png.h, and the manual pages -libpng.3 and png.5. |
