Lua

-
Although we use Lua from LuaBinaries, any Lua installation can also be used. 
-But you will have to define some environment variables before building IM, CD and 
-IUP. Here is an example:

-
export LUA_SUFFIX=
-export LUA_INC=/usr/local/include      [actually NOT necessary, this one is already used by gcc/g++]
-export LUA_LIB=/usr/local/lib          [            "         ]
-export LUA_BIN=/usr/local/bin          [necessary because luac will not be used from the PATH]

-
The tools bin2c and luac are necessary only if you need to rebuild LOH files. 
-But since the source packages already includes them, those tools are in fact not 
-necessary.

 
Unpacking

+
To extract the files use the tar command at a common directory, for example:

+
mkdir -p xxxx
+cd xxxx
+
+[copy the downloaded files, to the xxxx directory]
+
+tar -xpvzf iup-3.2_Sources.tar.gz
+tar -xpvzf cd-5.4_Sources.tar.gz
+tar -xpvzf im-3.6.2_Sources.tar.gz
+tar -xpvzf lua5_1_4_Sources.tar.gz    [optional, see note bellow]

 
If you are going to build all the libraries, the makefiles and projects 
 expect the following directory tree:

 
/xxxx/
-      iup/
       cd/
       im/
-      lua5.1/  [optional]

+      iup/
+      lua5.1/    [optional, see note bellow]
-

So, unpack all the source packages in the same folder that will do fine.

+

If you unpack all the source packages in the same directory, that structure will +be automatically created.

+

Lua

+

Although we use Lua from LuaBinaries, any Lua installation can also be used. +In Ubuntu, the Lua run time package is:

+
lua5.1
+

And the Lua development package is:

+
liblua5.1-0-dev
+

To use them, instead of using the directory "/xxxx/lua5.1" described above, you will have to define some environment variables before building IM, CD and +IUP:

+
export LUA_SUFFIX=
+export LUA_INC=/usr/include/lua5.1

Building

As a general rule (excluding system dependencies): IUP depends on CD and IM, and CD depends on IM. So start by build IM, then CD, then IUP.

-

To start building go the the "src" folder and type "make". In IUP there are -many "srcxxx" folders, so go to the up folder "iup" and type +

To start building go the the "src" directory and type "make". In IUP there are +many "srcxxx" folders, so go to the up directory "iup" and type "make" that all the -sub folders will be built.

-

Instead of building all the libraries, try building only the libraries you +sub folders will be built. For example:

+
cd im/src
+make
+cd ../..
+
+cd cd/src
+make
+cd ../..
+
+cd iup
+make
+cd ..
+

TIP: Instead of building all the libraries, try building only the libraries you are going to use. The provided makefiles will build all the libraries, but take a look inside them and you will figure out how to build just one library.

-

Installation

- -

After building you can copy the libraries files to the system folder. This is -not necessary since you can use -I and -L on your makefiles, but it can be done. -If you are inside one of the libraries main folder you can type:

-
cp lib/Linux26g4/* /usr/local/lib
-cp include/* /usr/local/include
-

This will copy run time and development files. If you just want the run time, -then do simply:

-
cp lib/Linux26g4/*.so /usr/local/lib
-

Also when coping development folders, if you want to keep the library headers -in a separate folder, you can do:

-
cp -R iup/include /usr/local/include/iup
-cp -R cd/include /usr/local/include/cd
-cp -R im/include /usr/local/include/im
-

Then use in your makefile -Iiup -Icd -Iim.

-

This installation procedure also can be used for the pre-compiled binaries -packages available for download. They contain the development and run time files -you need.

-

If you don't want to copy the libraries to your system -folder, you can still use them, but you will need to add the binaries folders to +

Pre-compiled Binaries

+

Instead of building from sources you can try to use the pre-compiled +binaries. Usually they were build in the latest Ubuntu versions for 32 and 64 +bits. The packages are located in the "Linux Libraries" +directory +under the Files section +in Source Forge, with "xxx-X.X_Linux26g4_lib.tar.gz" +and "xxx-X.X_Linux26g4_64_lib.tar.gz" names.

+

Do not extract different pre-compiled binaries in the same directory, create a +subdirectory for each one, for example:

+
mkdir iup
+cd iup
+tar -xpvzf ../iup-3.2_Linux26g4_lib.tar.gz
+cd ..
+
+mkdir cd
+cd cd
+tar -xpvzf cd-5.4_Linux26g4_lib.tar.gz
+cd ..
+
+mkdir im
+cd im
+tar -xpvzf im-3.6.2_Linux26g4_lib.tar.gz
+cd ..
+
+
+

For the installation instructions bellow, remove the "lib/Linux26g4" from the +following examples if you are using the pre-compiled binaries.

+

Installation (System Directory)

+ +

After building you can copy the libraries files to the system directory. If you are inside +the main directory, to install the run time libraries you can type, for example:

+
sudo cp -f iup/lib/Linux26g4/*.so /usr/lib               [script version: install ]
+sudo cp -f cd/lib/Linux26g4/*.so /usr/lib                               
+sudo cp -f im/lib/Linux26g4/*.so /usr/lib
+

To install the development files, +then do:

+
sudo mkdir -p /usr/include/iup                           [script version: install_dev ]
+sudo cp -f iup/include/*.h /usr/include/iup             
+sudo cp -f iup/lib/Linux26g4/*.a /usr/lib                               
+
+sudo mkdir -p /usr/include/cd
+sudo cp -f cd/include/*.h /usr/include/cd
+sudo cp -f cd/lib/Linux26g4/*.a /usr/lib
+
+sudo mkdir -p /usr/include/im
+sudo cp -fR im/include/*.h /usr/include/im
+sudo cp -f im/lib/Linux26g4/*.a /usr/lib
+

Then in your makefile use -Iiup -Icd -Iim for includes. There is no need to +specify the libraries directory with -L. Development files are only necessary if +you are going to compile an application or library in C/C++ that uses there +libraries. To just run Lua scripts they are not necessary.

+

Installation (Build Directory) [Alternative]

+

If you don't want to copy the run time libraries to your system +directory, you can use them from build directory. You will need to add the run time +libraries folders to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, for example:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/xxxx/iup/lib/Linux26g4:/xxxx/cd/lib/Linux26g4:/xxxx/im/lib/Linux26g4
-

In this case, in your makefile will will also need to specify those paths -when linking using -L/xxxx/iup/lib/Linux26g4.

-

Lua

-

If you are NOT using LuaBinaries then you have two options to be able to use -"require" with these libraries. You can create symbolic links in the Lua C -modules folder to the installed libraries run time:

-
ln -s /usr/local/lib/lipiuplua51.so /usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/iuplua.so
-ln -s /usr/local/lib/lipiupluacontrols51.so /usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/iupluacontrols.so
+
And in your makefile will will also need to specify those paths 
+when linking using -L/xxxx/iup/lib/Linux26g4, and for compiling use 
+-I/xxxx/iup/include.

+
Installation (Lua Modules)

+
Lua modules in Ubuntu are installed in the "/usr/lib/lua/5.1" 
+directory. So to 
+be able to use the Lua "require" with IUP, CD and IM you must create symbolic links inside 
+that directory.

+
sudo mkdir -p /usr/lib/lua/5.1                          [script version: config_lua_module ]
+cd /usr/lib/lua/5.1  
+       
+sudo ln -fs /usr/lib/libiuplua51.so iuplua.so
+sudo ln -fs /usr/lib/libiupluacontrols51.so iupluacontrols.so
 ...

-
You can set the LUA_CPATH environment variable:

-
export LUA_CPATH=./\?.so\;./lib\?.so\;./lib\?51.so\;
-

+
Using those links you do not need any extra configuration. 

+
Installation (Lua Modules) [Alternative]

+
If you use the alternative installation directory, and you also 
+do NOT use the LuaBinaries installation, then you must set the LUA_CPATH environment variable:

+
export LUA_CPATH=./\?.so\;./lib\?.so\;./lib\?51.so\;

+
