[GRASS5] Cygwin build for 110401

Markus, (Grass list)

In the incoming directory is a grass-20010411.zip file and
a nviz-20010411.zip file. The install part of nviz did not
work first time and I did not notice it until after I had uploaded
the grass5 binary. Please move them to the http site.

That section needs some work. The executable is made in
the src directory and a Gmakefile later does the move
'mv src/nvwish /dev/cvs/grass/dist.i686-pc-cygwin/etc/nviz2.2/NVWISH2.2'

Of course, under cygwin nvwish does not exist. So, is the final
executable supposed to be NVWISH2.2? Whatever, in the
nviz-20010411.zip container, it is there three times.

Let me know what configuration you want.

excuse me, but the intention of the packages is not clear to
me. I assume that they are not intended for a wide audience but
to winGRASS developers only? So I would store them in a web
space not read by the mirrors? If we publish GRASS/Cygnus twice
it will be confusing (why both .tar.gz and .zip)...

Please let me know,

o.k, I have added it successfully. However, two questions are still
there:

- for whom is this new package intended
- why .zip if we have .tar.gz/grass5install.sh

Especially considering:

Obviously this zip is not intended to the general user?

Sorry to insist,

Markus

PS: I have to take little care that the Server volume keep in it's
    size limits.

Hi Markus, John, Malcolm,

i think that we should go first with the installable tar.gz tarball that
Malcolm uploaded.

If we upload an untested zip file without instructions to install we
will get masses of emails asking for help. I can not provide individual
installation support.

If the nviz wish is not installed properly, we should modify the
makefile.

I still insist to make the whole procedure as general as possible. I
believe we should not rely on manual tweaking or on individual
configurations.
And i don't like the idea of distributing binary files that can not be
automatically rebuild.

John, could you please post what you did to compile nviz2.2? Is this
going through the X11 libraries or with the Windows GUI library?
Does the StarNet X Server support OpenGL? I don't think so.

Building PostgresSQL support seems to need the PostgreSQL source
package, my compile dies with message "missing postgres.h". The Postgres
package changed several times the last week. We should wait until this
settles down and we have the opportunity to test the setup.

I did much testing yesterday and will prepare a short report. v.digit
has a very unusual behaviour (you have to press RETURN after each
message), but seems to work generally.

cu,

Andreas

Andreas, (Grass5 list)

I agree let's test it first.

Also, I followed Byars link (see below) Friday and see that the tar build
does not include Postgresql. Postgresql is available in the contrib section
of Cygwin and does get installed. It is included in the zip binaries.

Regarding the nviz, I modified the Gmakefile.in to include the words

-lopengl32 -lglu32 -lX11

Then the system uses the Gmakefile.in to create the Gmakefile and it
builds. These come from the Cygwin latest/w32api section.

Do you have a general solution for src.contrib/GMSL/NVIZ2.2/src/Gmakefile.in
using the OPENGL32 from head file recently included?
It would be nice to have it included automagically on every platform.

Yes, of course, but I did not want to break the Linux build.

Add $(OPENGL32) in the last line of the Gmakefile.in after
the -ltiff in the src.contrib/GMSL/NVIZ2.2/src directory

I have modified:
src.contrib/GMSL/NVIZ2.2/src/Gmakefile.in
and changed hard-coded libs to src/CMD/head equivalent variable names.
This should do on every platform. Please let me know if it helps
(along with the updated src/CMD/head.in)
