actually *use* the resulting configuration file, but it keeps autoconf from creating an insanely long compiler command line, which can cause problems all by itself. Eventually we can do: #ifdef HAVE_CONFIG_H #include "config.h" #endif ... to get the same information.

Installing nasm from source
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
Installing nasm is pretty straightforward on UN*X systems with Perl
|
|
and GNU tools installed.
|
|
|
|
If you checked out source from CVS you will need to run autoconf to
|
|
generate configure, otherwise you don't have to.
|
|
|
|
$ autoheader
|
|
$ autoconf
|
|
|
|
Then run configure to detect your platform settings and generate makefiles.
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure
|
|
|
|
You can get information about available configuration options by
|
|
running `./configure --help`.
|
|
|
|
If configure fails, please send bug report with detailed platform
|
|
information to <nasm-bugs@lists.sourceforge.net> and we will try to
|
|
help you asap!
|
|
|
|
If everything went okay, type
|
|
|
|
$ make
|
|
|
|
to build nasm, ndisasm and rdoff tools, or
|
|
|
|
$ make everything
|
|
|
|
to build the former plus the docs.
|
|
|
|
You can decrease the size of produces executables by stripping off
|
|
unnecessary information, to achieve this run
|
|
|
|
$ make strip
|
|
|
|
If you install to a system-wide location you might need to become
|
|
root:
|
|
|
|
$ su <enter root password>
|
|
|
|
then
|
|
|
|
$ make install
|
|
|
|
optionally followed by
|
|
|
|
$ make install_rdf
|
|
|
|
Or you can
|
|
|
|
$ make install_everything
|
|
|
|
to install everything =)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Thats it, enjoy!
|
|
|
|
PS. Installation instructions for other platforms are underway.
