Tcl/Tk 8.3.2 build on QNX 4.25 info
Bruce Edge
anyone who is interested:
tcl:
from /usr/local/src/tcl8.3.2/unix run:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/tcl8.3.2 --disable-threads --disable-load
--disable-shard --enable-gcc --with-tcl=/usr/local/tcl8.3.2
--with-tk=/usr/local/tcl8.3.2
tk:
from /usr/local/src/tk8.3.2/unix run:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/tcl8.3.2 --disable-threads --disable-load
--disable-shard --enable-gcc --with-tcl=/usr/local/tcl8.3.2/lib
--with-tk=/usr/local/tcl8.3.2
Don't know if all these options are absolutely necessary, but when something
works, well, you know the rest.
Edit unix/Makefile and turn off security:
#SECURITY_FLAGS =
SECURITY_FLAGS = -DTK_NO_SECURITY
..or, at some point get xauth style working on QNX.
Edit all Makefiles and change SH to /bin/bash rather /bin/sh
Oh, yes, you'll need the bash from quics /usr/free/qnx4
If soneone knows of a better way to handle this next one, I'd love to know.
Edit tk/generic/tk.h and insert:
#undef XNQueryInputStyle
above the line:
#ifdef XNQueryInputStyle
There's something wierd in QNX's shell test handling, so I had to comment out
a few tests in the unix/Makefiles, here's the diffs:

Then, from /usr/local/tcl8.2.3/unix run:
make
make install
then do the same in /usr/local/tk8.2.3
Then, I made a link from /usr/local/tcl8.3.2 to /usr/local/tcl
-ITCL
This is for [incr tcl] 3.1.0, I haven't tried 3.2.0 yet.
./configure --exec-prefix=/usr/local/tcl --disable-shared
Then, change /bin/sh to /bin/bash in all Makefiles
Got ITCL built. Minor glitch in Makefile:
I've been trying to make the itcl tarball from the
scriptics site (itcl3.1.0.tar.gz) on QNX.
I finally got it built, but I think there's a buglet
in the makefile in itcl3.1.0/itk/unix
Line 220 has:
STUB_OBJS = itkStubLib.o
Line 240 has:
$(ITK_STUB_LIB_FILE): $(STUB_OBJS)
rm -f $(ITK_STUB_LIB_FILE)
ar cr ${ITK_STUB_LIB_FILE} ${ITK_STUB_LIB_OBJS}
$(RANLIB) $(ITCL_STUB_LIB_FILE)
The args to "ar" contain an undefined macro: ${ITK_STUB_LIB_OBJS}
changing it to read:
ar cr ${ITK_STUB_LIB_FILE} ${STUB_OBJS}
Also, for make install, need to chmod +x all the install-sh scripts.
Lastly:
# //8/usr/local/src/itcl3.1.0/itcl/library> mkdir /usr/local/tcl/lib/itcl3.1
# //8/usr/local/src/itcl3.1.0/itcl/library> cp itcl/library/itcl.tcl
/usr/local/tcl/lib/itcl3.1
# //8/usr/local/src/itcl3.1.0> mkdir /usr/local/tcl/lib/itk3.1
# //8/usr/local/src/itcl3.1.0> cp itk/library/itk.tcl
/usr/local/tcl/lib/itk3.1
Then, make, make install....
