DISCLAIMER: I make this port of the Mesa 3-D Graphics Library as a service | |
to the general public. I can, in no way support or make any guarantee that the | |
build will work for your system. | |
The associated packages and batch files I have included as part of the GCC-2.95.2/Mingw32 extension are provided "As-is" with out any guarantee of support or functionality from this author. | |
Feel free to modify or change things as you see fit, just remember that | |
I can't support any modifications you might want to make to the files which I | |
have included OR the lgpl protected Mesa 3-D Graphics Library. | |
I recommend using GCC-2.95.2/Mingw32 which is available at Mumit Khans' ftp site: | |
(ftp://ftp.xraylith.wisc.edu/pub/khan/gnu-win32/mingw32/) | |
This build has been tested under WinNT4/SP6. Win9x and WinNT5 remain untested by me. I have not tested any of the demos included with Mesa3d. | |
I recommend using the GCC-2.95.2/Mingw32. | |
ftp://ftp.xraylith.wisc.edu/pub/khan/gnu-win32/mingw32/gcc-2.95.2 | |
Much thanks to the combined efforts of Mumit Khan, Jan-Jaap Vanderhagen | |
and Colin Peters for making it possible for the Mingw32 toolchain to exist. Also, thanks go out to Stephane Rehel for the work that was completed on the Cygwin build. | |
Installing GCC-2.95.2/Mingw32 Build: | |
a) Open the file archive (either tar.gz or .zip extensions) | |
b) Decide the directory you want to move the archived files to. | |
d) Extract the files from the archive. | |
e) Edit the mingw32.bat file to accomodate your choice of directory structure. | |
%mesaroot%: This is your root directory (Mesa-3.3) | |
%mesasrc%: This is the Mesa-3.3 src directory (Mesa-3.3\src) | |
%mesalib%: This is where the build will put libGL.a and libGLU.a | |
Running the Build: | |
Open your Command Prompt or MS-DOS prompt. | |
Go to your Mesa-3.3 'root' directory | |
At the command line type: mingw32 | |
That's all there is to it. | |
Enjoy! | |
Peace, | |
