| <h1>Building SDL with Borland C++ </h1> | ||
| <b> by <a href=mailto:xevol@users.sourceforge.net> David Snopek </a> </b> | ||
|
|
||
| <br> | ||
| <br> | ||
|
|
||
| These instructions cover how to compile SDL and its included test programs using either | ||
| Borland C++ Builder 5 or the free Borland compiler. <br> | ||
|
|
||
| <h3> <b> Extract the files </b> </h3> | ||
|
|
||
| <p> Unzip the Borland.zip archive into <b>this</b> directory. Do not unzip it into any | ||
| other directory because the makefiles use relative paths to refer to the SDL sources. This | ||
| should create a directory named "Borland" inside of the top level SDL source directory. | ||
| </p> | ||
|
|
||
| <h3> <b> Using Borland C++ Builder 5 </b> </h3> | ||
|
|
||
| <p> Inside of the "Borland" directory there is a "bcb5" directory that contains a number | ||
| of Builder project files. Double-click on the "libSDL.bpg" file icon. Once Builder has | ||
| started click on the "<u>P</u>rojects" menu on the menu-bar and go down to | ||
| "B<u>u</u>ild All Projects" option. This will proceed to build SDL, SDLmain, and all | ||
| the <a href="#tests">test programs</a>. </p> | ||
|
|
||
| <h3> <b> Using the free Borland compiler </b> </h3> | ||
|
|
||
| <p> The free Borland compiler can be downloaded at no charge from <a href="http://www.borland.com/bcppbuilder/freecompiler/"> the | ||
| Borland website </a>. Make sure that it is installed and properly configured. </p> | ||
|
|
||
| <p> Open an MS-DOS Prompt. Change to the "Borland\freebcc" directory under the | ||
| SDL source directory. Type "make -f SDL.mak" to build SDL and "make -f | ||
| SDLmain.mak". There are also makefiles for all of the <a href="#tests">test | ||
| programs</a>, if you wish to build them. </p> | ||
|
|
||
| <h3> <b> Output files </b> </h3> | ||
|
|
||
| No matter which compiler you used, three important files should have been produced: | ||
|
|
||
| <UL> | ||
| <LI> SDL.dll </LI> | ||
| <LI> SDL.lib </LI> | ||
| <LI> SDLmain.lib </LI> | ||
| </UL> | ||
|
|
||
| Both of the *.lib files will need to be added to all the projects that use SDL and SDL.dll | ||
| must be placed some where the Windows dynamic linker can find it (either in your | ||
| project directory or on the system path, C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM). | ||
|
|
||
| <a name="tests"> | ||
| <h3> <b> Test programs </b> </h3> | ||
| </a> | ||
|
|
||
| Some of the test programs require included media files. Before trying to run any of the | ||
| test programs, copy these media files from the "tests/" directory into the build directory. | ||
