No. There are three primary concerns in order to build Fossil with Tcl integration enabled and make use of it at runtime: 1. Locating the necessary Tcl header file(s) at compile-time. Currently, this is handled several different ways, depending on the platform. On Unix-like systems, it is handled via searching for an installed Tcl and using those header files. This behavior can be overridden via the configure script; however, I have not needed to do this for my non-Windows uses of Fossil. 2. Locating the necessary Tcl library file(s) at compile-time. This is handled largely the same as #1. The configure script (really autosetup) should be capable of automatically locating the necessary library on most Unix-like systems. 3. Locating the necessary Tcl library at runtime (which must be "installed" in order to locate its "init.tcl", more on this later). When Fossil is compiled with "stubs-enabled", it will attempt to dynamically load the Tcl library (i.e. via dlopen) and then call the necessary exported functions to get everything going; otherwise, it will just use the exported functions it was linked against. Either way, the instance of Tcl being used needs to be able to locate its script library (e.g. "init.tcl"). Typically, this means it must be "installed" via "make install" or similar mechanism so that all the files are located in the right places. Here is the sequence of commands that I use to compile and install Fossil on Unix-like systems with a locally installed Tcl enabled: ################################################################## # PHASE 1: Download and install Tcl 8.6.1. ################################################################## mv tcl tcl.old wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/tcl/tcl8.6.1-src.tar.gz tar -zxvf tcl8.6.1-src.tar.gz cd tcl8.6.1/unix ./configure --prefix=/home/yourusername/tcl make all make install ################################################################## # PHASE 2: Download and install TclLib 1.15 (optional). ################################################################## wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/tcllib/tcllib-1.15.tar.gz tar -zxvf tcllib-1.15.tar.gz cd tcllib-1.15 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/yourusername/tcl/lib /home/yourusername/tcl/bin/tclsh8.6 installer.tcl ################################################################## # PHASE 3: Download and install Fossil. ################################################################## wget --no-check-certificate --output-document=Fossil-trunk.tar.gz https://www.fossil-scm.org/index.html/tarball/Fossil-trunk.tar.gz?name=trunk tar -zxvf Fossil-trunk.tar.gz cd trunk ./configure --with-zlib=/home/yourusername/trunk/compat/zlib --with-openssl=auto --with-tcl=/home/yourusername/tcl --with-th1-hooks=1 --json=1 make cp fossil /home/yourusername/bin/fossil ################################################################## # PHASE 4: Setup integration with web server (Apache). ################################################################## In the ".htaccess" file, you'll most likely need the following two lines: SetEnv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /home/yourusername/tcl/lib SetEnv HOME /home/yourusername -- Joe Mistachkin _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
