=======================================================================
*** Ecasound - INSTALL ***
=======================================================================
The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for
various system-dependent variables used during compilation. It uses
those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory of the package.
It also creates the file `config.h' in the top-level source directory.
This file contains system-dependent definitions. Finally, it creates
a shell script `config.status' that you can run in the future to
recreate the current configuration, a file `config.cache' that saves
the results of its tests to speed up reconfiguring, and a file
`config.log' containing compiler output (useful mainly for debugging
`configure').
If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try
to figure out how `configure' could check whether to do them, and mail
diffs or instructions to the address given in the `README' so they can
be considered for the next release. If at some point `config.cache'
contains results you don't want to keep, you may remove or edit it.
The file `configure.in' is used to create `configure' by a program
called `autoconf'. You only need `configure.in' if you want to change
it or regenerate `configure' using a newer version of `autoconf'.
The simplest way to compile this package is:
1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type
`./configure' to configure the package for your system. If you're
using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type
`sh ./configure' instead to prevent `csh' from trying to execute
`configure' itself.
Running `configure' takes awhile. While running, it prints some
messages telling which features it is checking for.
2. Type `make' to compile the package.
3. Type `make install' to install the programs and any data files and
documentation.
4. If you have not specified an alternative install prefix with --prefix
option, make sure that you have `/usr/local/libŽ in your
`/etc/ld.so.conf' and then run `/sbin/ldconfigŽ (as root).
5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
source code directory by typing `make clean'. To also remove the
files that `configure' created (so you can compile the package for
a different kind of computer), type `make distclean'. There is
also a `make maintainer-clean' target, but that is intended mainly
for the package's developers. If you use it, you may have to get
all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came
with the distribution.
Ecasound specific options

Build static binaries that are not linked against any
shared libraries. Disabled by default. Note! This is
an experimental option and may not work in all
circumstances.

Enabled by default.
`--disable-jack'
Don't compile JACK client support. See
http://jackit.sf.net for more info about JACK.
By default JACK support is enabled if all the
necessary header and library files are found.
`--disable-libsamplerate'
Don't compile libsamplerate support. See
http://www.mega-nerd.com/SRC for more info about
libsamplerate. By default libsamplerate support is
enabled if all the necessary header and library files
are found.
`--disable-ncurses'
Don't link against ncurses (known bug: even if this is
specified, you're still required to have a working
ncurses/termcap installation to compile). Enabled
by default.
`--disable-oss'
Don't compile support for OSS-drivers. Enabled by
default.
`--disable-osstrigger'
Disable the use of OSS trigger functions. Enabled
by default.
`--disable-sndfile'
Don't link to libsndfile. By default libsndfile support is
enabled if all the necessary header and library
files are found.
`--with-jack=JACK_PREFIX'
Enable JACK support and compile against JACK installed
in 'JACK_PREFIX'.
`--with-libsamplerate=LIBSAMPLERATE_PREFIX'
Enable libsamplerate support and compile against libsamplerate
installed in 'LIBSAMPLERATE_PREFIX'.
`--with-largefile'
Compile with support for large files (>2GB). Disabled
by default.
`--enable-pyecasound={c,python,none}'
Enable pyecasound and select which implementation to use.
Default value based on target platform.
`--with-python-includes=DIR'
Python include files are located in 'DIR'.
`--with-python-modules=DIR'
Python modules should be installed to 'DIR'.
`--enable-rubyecasound={yes,no}'
Enable rubyecasound. Defaults to yes if Ruby interpreter
is found on the system.
Supported automake/autoconf features
====================================
Ecasound uses the autotools (automake, automake and libtool)
build system framework. Standard practises (see below for
references) are followed where applicable.
Some features offered by the autotools do not work without
explicit support from the package. Following is a short list of
features that Ecasound _does_ support. If you encounter any
problems in using these features with Ecasound, please report
them as bugs.
1. Building Ecasound in a directory separate from the source
directory.
Example: "mkdir objdir ; cd objdir ; ../configure ; make"
2. 'uninstall' make target
You should be able to uninstall Ecasound by running "make uninstall".
Note that if you override any make variable when running "make install",
you should specify the same variables also when running "make uninstall".
Reference: Automake manual (see below)
3. 'DESTDIR' make variable for staging installs
Reference: http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Install
4. 'prefix', 'datadir', pkgdatadir' make variables
You should be able to override any of the make variables
on the make command-line. But remember to always override
the same variables when you switch between make targets (see
notes on (2)).
Example: make prefix=/tmp/ecasound-foobar install
5. Overriding CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, etc variables.
It is possible to override these parameters both before
running the configure script (specify new values as
environment variables), or at make time (specify new
values on the make command-line). Note that these
mechanisms are exclusive to each other.
To specify extra preprocessing and compile flags that are
applied when building libecasound components, but not when
building the test programs run by 'configure' script, one can
use the environment variables ECA_S_EXTRA_CPPFLAGS and
ECA_S_EXTRA_CFLAGS (define before running 'configure').

Specifying the System Type
==========================
There may be some features `configure' can not figure out
automatically, but needs to determine by the type of host the package
will run on. Usually `configure' can figure that out, but if it prints
a message saying it can not guess the host type, give it the
`--host=TYPE' option. TYPE can either be a short name for the system
type, such as `sun4', or a canonical name with three fields:
CPU-COMPANY-SYSTEM
See the file `config.sub' for the possible values of each field. If
`config.sub' isn't included in this package, then this package doesn't
need to know the host type.
If you are building compiler tools for cross-compiling, you can also
use the `--target=TYPE' option to select the type of system they will
produce code for and the `--build=TYPE' option to select the type of
system on which you are compiling the package.
Operation Controls
==================
`configure' recognizes the following options to control how it
operates.
`--cache-file=FILE'
Use and save the results of the tests in FILE instead of
`./config.cache'. Set FILE to `/dev/null' to disable caching, for
debugging `configure'.
`--help'
Print a summary of the options to `configure', and exit.
`--quiet'
`--silent'
`-q'
Do not print messages saying which checks are being made. To
suppress all normal output, redirect it to `/dev/null' (any error
messages will still be shown).
`--srcdir=DIR'
Look for the package's source code in directory DIR. Usually
`configure' can determine that directory automatically.
`--version'
Print the version of Autoconf used to generate the `configure'
script, and exit.
`configure' also accepts some other, not widely useful, options.
