==========
Compiling:
==========
./configure
make
make install
One note about ./configure, I am not using it for makefiles, so the
--prefix and other flags will have -no- effect on the output. It is
only used to check for various types and headers.
======================
Environment Variables:
======================
GNUSTEP_INSTALLATION_DIR
Determines the root of where netclasses and its documentation
will be installed. This is generally /usr/GNUstep/Local but
can be reassigned to other targets such as
GNUSTEP_INSTALLATION_DIR=$GNUSTEP_USER_ROOT
to install into a user's home directory.
==============
Documentation:
==============
Documentation/ holds the netclasses documentation. This documentation
will not be compiled and installed with netclasses. This must be done
separately. Simply type make followed by make install in the
Documentation/ directory to build and install the documentation. The
resulting documentation will end up in:
$(GNUSTEP_INSTALLATION_DIR)/Library/Documentation/Developer/netclasses
This documentation has a brief overview of netclasses as well as the
class references.
====
Use:
====
Simply link to the framework after it is installed in your application.
See the Examples/ directory for examples of the use of netclasses.
testsuite/ contains various tests to examine the extent to which things
work on other operating systems or other architectures.
