compiling neko without sudo or packages

[ianxm]

I've updated my openshift vms to run neko 2 (and haxe3's fcgi).  I couldn't use the precompiled binaries because they depend on glibc 2.14 but the vm has glibc 2.12. openshift doesn't give sudo or allow use of a package manager, so compiling neko was a little tricky.  so I'm putting my notes down here for someone else (or myself in the future).

neko

----

build each dependency

    - libgc

    - libpcre

    - libsqlite3

    - libfcgi

    put binaries in /path/to/local/lib

    put headers in /path/to/local/include

    on openshift /path/to/local/ is  /var/lib/openshift/[hash]/app-root/data/

get neko

    git clone https://github.com/HaxeFoundation/neko.git neko

update neko/Makefile

    add: CFLAGS += -I/path/to/local/include

    add: EXTFLAGS += -L/path/to/local/lib

update neko/src/tools/install.neko

    add to inc1 array: "/path/to/local/include"

    add to libraries array: "/path/to/local/lib"

compile

    cd neko

    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/local/lib

    make clean all

copy binaries

    cp bin/neko bin/nekotools /path/to/local/bin

    cp bin/*.ndll bin/libneko.so /path/to/local/lib

    

haxe-fcgi

---------

get haxe-fcgi

    hg clone https://code.google.com/p/haxe-fcgi/

update haxe-fcgi/build/Makefile

    add: CCFLAGS += -I/path/to/local/include

    add: LDFLAGS += -L/path/to/local/lib

compile it

    cd haxe-fcgi/build

    make

copy binaries

    cp ../library/ndll/Linux64/fcgi.ndll /path/to/local/lib

you wouldn't happen to have that binary around still? I'm in a similar situation.
