Prerequisites
=============
- The procedures described to unpack, configure, build, and install
-`g77' assume your system has certain programs already installed.
-
- The following prerequisites should be met by your system before you
-follow the `g77' installation instructions:
-
-`gzip' and `tar'
- To unpack the `gcc' and `g77' distributions, you'll need the
- `gunzip' utility in the `gzip' distribution. Most UNIX systems
- already have `gzip' installed. If yours doesn't, you can get it
- from the FSF.
-
- Note that you'll need `tar' and other utilities as well, but all
- UNIX systems have these. There are GNU versions of all these
- available--in fact, a complete GNU UNIX system can be put together
- on most systems, if desired.
-
- The version of GNU `gzip' used to package this release is
- 1.2.4. (The version of GNU `tar' used to package this release is
- 1.12.)
-
-`gcc-2.8.1.tar.gz'
- You need to have this, or some other applicable, version of `gcc'
- on your system. The version should be an exact copy of a
- distribution from the FSF. Its size is approximately 8.4MB.
-
- If you've already unpacked `gcc-2.8.1.tar.gz' into a directory
- (named `gcc-2.8.1') called the "source tree" for `gcc', you can
- delete the distribution itself, but you'll need to remember to
- skip any instructions to unpack this distribution.
-
- Without an applicable `gcc' source tree, you cannot build `g77'.
- You can obtain an FSF distribution of `gcc' from the FSF.
-
-`g77-0.5.25.tar.gz'
- You probably have already unpacked this package, or you are
- reading an advance copy of these installation instructions, which
- are contained in this distribution. The size of this package is
- approximately 1.4MB.
-
- You can obtain an FSF distribution of `g77' from the FSF, the same
- way you obtained `gcc'.
-
-Enough disk space
- The amount of disk space needed to unpack, build, install, and use
- `g77' depends on the type of system you're using, how you build
- `g77', and how much of it you install (primarily, which languages
- you install).
-
- The sizes shown below assume all languages distributed in
- `gcc-2.8.1', plus `g77', will be built and installed. These sizes
- are indicative of GNU/Linux systems on Intel x86 running COFF and
- on Digital Alpha (AXP) systems running ELF. These should be
- fairly representative of 32-bit and 64-bit systems, respectively.
-
- Note that all sizes are approximate and subject to change without
- notice! They are based on preliminary releases of g77 made shortly
- before the public beta release.
-
- -- `gcc' and `g77' distributions occupy 10MB packed, 40MB
- unpacked. These consist of the source code and documentation,
- plus some derived files (mostly documentation), for `gcc' and
- `g77'. Any deviations from these numbers for different kinds
- of systems are likely to be very minor.
-
- -- A "bootstrap" build requires an additional 91MB for a total
- of 132MB on an ix86, and an additional 136MB for a total of
- 177MB on an Alpha.
-
- -- Removing `gcc/stage1' after the build recovers 13MB for a
- total of 119MB on an ix86, and recovers 21MB for a total of
- 155MB on an Alpha.
-
- After doing this, the integrity of the build can still be
- verified via `make compare', and the `gcc' compiler modified
- and used to build itself for testing fairly quickly, using
- the copy of the compiler kept in `gcc/stage2'.
-
- -- Removing `gcc/stage2' after the build further recovers 39MB
- for a total of 80MB, and recovers 57MB for a total of 98MB on
- an Alpha.
-
- After doing this, the compiler can still be installed,
- especially if GNU `make' is used to avoid gratuitous rebuilds
- (or, the installation can be done by hand).
-
- -- Installing `gcc' and `g77' copies 23MB onto the `--prefix'
- disk for a total of 103MB on an ix86, and copies 31MB onto
- the `--prefix' disk for a total of 130MB on an Alpha.
-
- After installation, if no further modifications and builds of
- `gcc' or `g77' are planned, the source and build directory may be
- removed, leaving the total impact on a system's disk storage as
- that of the amount copied during installation.
-
- Systems with the appropriate version of `gcc' installed don't
- require the complete bootstrap build. Doing a "straight build"
- requires about as much space as does a bootstrap build followed by
- removing both the `gcc/stage1' and `gcc/stage2' directories.
-
- Installing `gcc' and `g77' over existing versions might require
- less *new* disk space, but note that, unlike many products, `gcc'
- installs itself in a way that avoids overwriting other installed
- versions of itself, so that other versions may easily be invoked
- (via `gcc -V VERSION').
-
- So, the amount of space saved as a result of having an existing
- version of `gcc' and `g77' already installed is not
- much--typically only the command drivers (`gcc', `g77', `g++', and
- so on, which are small) and the documentation is overwritten by
- the new installation. The rest of the new installation is done
- without replacing existing installed versions (assuming they have
- different version numbers).
-
-`make'
- Your system must have `make', and you will probably save yourself
- a lot of trouble if it is GNU `make' (sometimes referred to as
- `gmake'). In particular, you probably need GNU `make' to build
- outside the source directory (with `configure''s `--srcdir'
- option.)
-
- The version of GNU `make' used to develop this release is
- 3.76.1.
-
-`cc'
- Your system must have a working C compiler. If it doesn't, you
- might be able to obtain a prebuilt binary of some version of `gcc'
- from the network or on CD-ROM, perhaps from the FSF. The best
- source of information about binaries is probably a system-specific
- Usenet news group, initially via its FAQ.
-
- *Note Installing GNU CC: (gcc)Installation, for more information
- on prerequisites for installing `gcc'.
-
-`sed'
- All UNIX systems have `sed', but some have a broken version that
- cannot handle configuring, building, or installing `gcc' or `g77'.
-
- The version of GNU `sed' used to develop this release is
- 2.05. (Note that GNU `sed' version 3.0 was withdrawn by the
- FSF--if you happen to have this version installed, replace it with
- version 2.05 immediately. See a GNU distribution site for further
- explanation.)
-
-`root' access or equivalent
- To perform the complete installation procedures on a system, you
- need to have `root' access to that system, or equivalent access to
- the `--prefix' directory tree specified on the `configure' command
- line.
-
- Portions of the procedure (such as configuring and building `g77')
- can be performed by any user with enough disk space and virtual
- memory.
-
- However, these instructions are oriented towards less-experienced
- users who want to install `g77' on their own personal systems.
-
- System administrators with more experience will want to determine
- for themselves how they want to modify the procedures described
- below to suit the needs of their installation.
-
-`autoconf'
- The version of GNU `autoconf' used to develop this release is
- 2.12.
-
- `autoconf' is not needed in the typical case of installing `gcc'
- and `g77'. *Note Missing tools?::, for information on when it
- might be needed and how to work around not having it.

- `bison' is not needed in the typical case of installing `gcc' and
- `g77'. *Note Missing tools?::, for information on when it might

-
- `gperf' is not needed in the typical case of installing `gcc' and
- `g77'. *Note Missing tools?::, for information on when it might
- be needed and how to work around not having it.
-
-`makeinfo'
- The version of GNU `makeinfo' used to develop this release is
- 1.68.
-
- `makeinfo' is part of the GNU `texinfo' package; `makeinfo'
- version 1.68 is distributed as part of GNU `texinfo' version
- 3.12.
-
- `makeinfo' is not needed in the typical case of installing `gcc'
- and `g77'. *Note Missing tools?::, for information on when it
- might be needed and how to work around not having it.
-
- An up-to-date version of GNU `makeinfo' is still convenient when
- obtaining a new version of a GNU distribution such as `gcc' or
- `g77', as it allows you to obtain the `.diff.gz' file instead of
- the entire `.tar.gz' distribution (assuming you have installed
- `patch').
-
-`patch'
- The version of GNU `patch' used to develop this release is
- 2.5.

- Beginning with `g77' version 0.5.23, it is no longer necessary to

Missing strtoul or bsearch
..........................
- On SunOS4 systems, linking the `f771' program used to produce an
-error message concerning an undefined symbol named `_strtoul', because
-the `strtoul' library function is not provided on that system.
-
- Other systems have, in the past, been reported to not provide their
-own `strtoul' or `bsearch' function.
-
- Some versions `g77' tried to default to providing bare-bones
-versions of `bsearch' and `strtoul' automatically, but every attempt at
-this has failed for at least one kind of system.
-
- To limit the failures to those few systems actually missing the
-required routines, the bare-bones versions are still provided, in
-`egcs/gcc/f/proj.c', if the appropriate macros are defined. These are
-`NEED_BSEARCH' for `bsearch' and `NEED_STRTOUL' for `NEED_STRTOUL'.
-
- Therefore, if you are sure your system is missing `bsearch' or
-`strtoul' in its library, define the relevant macro(s) before building
-`g77'. This can be done by editing `egcs/gcc/f/proj.c' and inserting

-
- If you then encounter problems compiling `egcs/gcc/f/proj.c', it
-might be due to a discrepancy between how `bsearch' or `strtoul' are
-defined by that file and how they're declared by your system's header
-files.
-
- In that case, you'll have to use some basic knowledge of C to work

Quick Start
===========
- This procedure configures, builds, and installs `g77' "out of the
-box" and works on most UNIX systems. Each command is identified by a
-unique number, used in the explanatory text that follows. For the most
-part, the output of each command is not shown, though indications of
-the types of responses are given in a few cases.
-
- To perform this procedure, the installer must be logged in as user
-`root'. Much of it can be done while not logged in as `root', and
-users experienced with UNIX administration should be able to modify the
-procedure properly to do so.
-
- Following traditional UNIX conventions, it is assumed that the
-source trees for `g77' and `gcc' will be placed in `/usr/src'. It also
-is assumed that the source distributions themselves already reside in
-`/usr/FSF', a naming convention used by the author of `g77' on his own
-system:
-
- /usr/FSF/gcc-2.8.1.tar.gz
- /usr/FSF/g77-0.5.25.tar.gz
-
- If you vary *any* of the steps below, you might run into trouble,
-including possibly breaking existing programs for other users of your
-system. Before doing so, it is wise to review the explanations of some
-of the steps. These explanations follow this list of steps.

-
- sh[ 2]# gunzip -c < /usr/FSF/gcc-2.8.1.tar.gz | tar xf -

- *Note Updating Your Info Directory: Updating Documentation, for
-information on how to update your system's top-level `info' directory
-to contain a reference to this manual, so that users of `g77' can
-easily find documentation instead of having to ask you for it.
-
- Elaborations of many of the above steps follows:
-
-Step 1: `cd /usr/src'
- You can build `g77' pretty much anyplace. By convention, this
- manual assumes `/usr/src'. It might be helpful if other users on
- your system knew where to look for the source code for the
- installed version of `g77' and `gcc' in any case.
-
-Step 3: `gunzip -d < /usr/FSF/g77-0.5.25.tar.gz | tar xf -'
- It is not always necessary to obtain the latest version of `g77'
- as a complete `.tar.gz' file if you have a complete, earlier
- distribution of `g77'. If appropriate, you can unpack that earlier
- version of `g77', and then apply the appropriate patches to
- achieve the same result--a source tree containing version
- 0.5.25 of `g77'.
-
-Step 4: `ln -s gcc-2.8.1 gcc'
-
-Step 5: `ln -s g77-0.5.25 g77'
- These commands mainly help reduce typing, and help reduce visual
- clutter in examples in this manual showing what to type to install
- `g77'.
-
- *Note Unpacking::, for information on using distributions of `g77'
- made by organizations other than the FSF.
-
-Step 6: `mv -i g77/* gcc'
- After doing this, you can, if you like, type `rm g77' and `rmdir
- g77-0.5.25' to remove the empty directory and the symbol link to
- it. But, it might be helpful to leave them around as quick
- reminders of which version(s) of `g77' are installed on your
- system.
-
- *Note Unpacking::, for information on the contents of the `g77'
- directory (as merged into the `gcc' directory).
-
-Step 8: `./configure --prefix=/usr'
- This is where you specify that the `g77' and `gcc' executables are
- to be installed in `/usr/bin/', the `g77' and `gcc' documentation
- is to be installed in `/usr/info/' and `/usr/man/', and so on.
-
- You should ensure that any existing installation of the `gcc'
- executable is in `/usr/bin/'.
-
- However, if that existing version of `gcc' is not 2.8.1, or if you
- simply wish to avoid risking overwriting it with a newly built
- copy of the same version, you can specify `--prefix=/usr/local'
- (which is the default) or some other path, and invoke the newly
- installed version directly from that path's `bin' directory.

-
-Step 11: `rm -fr stage1'
- You don't need to do this, but it frees up disk space.
-
-Step 12: `make -k install'
- If this doesn't seem to work, try:

- `libf2c' library (`libF77', `libI77', `libU77'), and those version
- numbers are all in agreement, then there is a high likelihood that
- the installation has been successfully completed.
-
- You might consider doing further testing. For example, log in as
- a non-privileged user, then create a small Fortran program, such
- as:
-
- PROGRAM SMTEST
- DO 10 I=1, 10
- PRINT *, 'Hello World #', I
- 10 CONTINUE
- END
-
- Compile, link, and run the above program, and, assuming you named
- the source file `smtest.f', the session should look like this:
-
- sh# g77 -o smtest smtest.f
- sh# ./smtest
- Hello World # 1
- Hello World # 2
- Hello World # 3
- Hello World # 4
- Hello World # 5
- Hello World # 6
- Hello World # 7
- Hello World # 8
- Hello World # 9
- Hello World # 10
- sh#
-
- If invoking `g77' doesn't seem to work, the problem might be that
- you've installed it in a location that is not in your shell's
- search path. For example, if you specified `--prefix=/gnu', and
- `/gnu/bin' is not in your `PATH' environment variable, you must
- explicitly specify the location of the compiler via `/gnu/bin/g77
- -o smtest smtest.f'.
-
- After proper installation, you don't need to keep your gcc and g77
- source and build directories around anymore. Removing them can
- free up a lot of disk space.
+ For users of the GCC-2.95 version of `g77', this information is
+superceded by the GCC installation instructions.
Complete Installation
=====================
- Here is the complete `g77'-specific information on how to configure,
-build, and install `g77'.
-
-Unpacking
----------
-
- The `gcc' source distribution is a stand-alone distribution. It is
-designed to be unpacked (producing the `gcc' source tree) and built as
-is, assuming certain prerequisites are met (including the availability
-of compatible UNIX programs such as `make', `cc', and so on).
-
- However, before building `gcc', you will want to unpack and merge
-the `g77' distribution in with it, so that you build a Fortran-capable
-version of `gcc', which includes the `g77' command, the necessary
-run-time libraries, and this manual.
-
- Unlike `gcc', the `g77' source distribution is *not* a stand-alone
-distribution. It is designed to be unpacked and, afterwards,
-immediately merged into an applicable `gcc' source tree. That is, the
-`g77' distribution *augments* a `gcc' distribution--without `gcc',
-generally only the documentation is immediately usable.
-
- A sequence of commands typically used to unpack `gcc' and `g77' is:
-
- sh# cd /usr/src
- sh# gunzip -c /usr/FSF/gcc-2.8.1.tar.gz | tar xf -
- sh# gunzip -c /usr/FSF/g77-0.5.25.tar.gz | tar xf -
- sh# ln -s gcc-2.8.1 gcc
- sh# ln -s g77-0.5.25 g77
- sh# mv -i g77/* gcc
-
- *Notes:* The commands beginning with `gunzip...' might print `Broken
-pipe...' as they complete. That is nothing to worry about, unless you
-actually *hear* a pipe breaking. The `ln' commands are helpful in
-reducing typing and clutter in installation examples in this manual.
-Hereafter, the top level of `gcc' source tree is referred to as `gcc',
-and the top level of just the `g77' source tree (prior to issuing the
-`mv' command, above) is referred to as `g77'.
-
- There are three top-level names in a `g77' distribution:
-
- g77/COPYING.g77
- g77/README.g77
- g77/f
-
- All three entries should be moved (or copied) into a `gcc' source
-tree (typically named after its version number and as it appears in the
-FSF distributions--e.g. `gcc-2.8.1').
-
- `g77/f' is the subdirectory containing all of the code,
-documentation, and other information that is specific to `g77'. The
-other two files exist to provide information on `g77' to someone
-encountering a `gcc' source tree with `g77' already present, who has
-not yet read these installation instructions and thus needs help
-understanding that the source tree they are looking at does not come
-from a single FSF distribution. They also help people encountering an
-unmerged `g77' source tree for the first time.
-
- *Note:* Please use *only* `gcc' and `g77' source trees as
-distributed by the FSF. Use of modified versions is likely to result
-in problems that appear to be in the `g77' code but, in fact, are not.
-Do not use such modified versions unless you understand all the
-differences between them and the versions the FSF distributes--in which
-case you should be able to modify the `g77' (or `gcc') source trees
-appropriately so `g77' and `gcc' can coexist as they do in the stock
-FSF distributions.
-
-Merging Distributions
----------------------
-
- After merging the `g77' source tree into the `gcc' source tree, you
-have put together a complete `g77' source tree.
-
- As of version 0.5.23, `g77' no longer modifies the version number of
-`gcc', nor does it patch `gcc' itself.
-
- `g77' still depends on being merged with an appropriate version of
-`gcc'. For version 0.5.25 of `g77', the specific version of `gcc'
-supported is 2.8.1.
-
- However, other versions of `gcc' might be suitable "hosts" for this
-version of `g77'.
-
- GNU version numbers make it easy to figure out whether a particular
-version of a distribution is newer or older than some other version of
-that distribution. The format is, generally, MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, with
-each field being a decimal number. (You can safely ignore leading
-zeros; for example, 1.5.3 is the same as 1.5.03.) The MAJOR field only
-increases with time. The other two fields are reset to 0 when the
-field to their left is incremented; otherwise, they, too, only increase
-with time. So, version 2.6.2 is newer than version 2.5.8, and version
-3.0 is newer than both. (Trailing `.0' fields often are omitted in
-announcements and in names for distributions and the directories they
-create.)
-
- If your version of `gcc' is older than the oldest version supported
-by `g77' (as casually determined by listing the contents of
-`egcs/gcc/f/INSTALL/', which contains these installation instructions
-in plain-text format), you should obtain a newer, supported version of
-`gcc'. (You could instead obtain an older version of `g77', or try and
-get your `g77' to work with the old `gcc', but neither approach is
-recommended, and you shouldn't bother reporting any bugs you find if you
-take either approach, because they're probably already fixed in the
-newer versions you're not using.)
-
- If your version of `gcc' is newer than the newest version supported
-by `g77', it is possible that your `g77' will work with it anyway. If
-the version number for `gcc' differs only in the PATCH field, you might
-as well try that version of `gcc'. Since it has the same MAJOR and
-MINOR fields, the resulting combination is likely to work.
-
- So, for example, if a particular version of `g77' has support for
-`gcc' versions 2.8.0 and 2.8.1, it is likely that `gcc-2.8.2' would
-work well with `g77'.
-
- However, `gcc-2.9.0' would almost certainly not work with that
-version of `g77' without appropriate modifications, so a new version of
-`g77' would be needed.
-
- This complexity is the result of `gcc' and `g77' being separate
-distributions. By keeping them separate, each product is able to be
-independently improved and distributed to its user base more frequently.
-
- However, the GBE interface defined by `gcc' typically undergoes some
-incompatible changes at least every time the MINOR field of the version
-number is incremented, and such changes require corresponding changes to
-the `g77' front end (FFE).
-
-Where in the World Does Fortran (and GNU CC) Go?
-------------------------------------------------
-
- Before configuring, you should make sure you know where you want the
-`g77' and `gcc' binaries to be installed after they're built, because
-this information is given to the configuration tool and used during the
-build itself.
-
- A `g77' installation normally includes installation of a
-Fortran-aware version of `gcc', so that the `gcc' command recognizes
-Fortran source files and knows how to compile them.
-
- For this to work, the version of `gcc' that you will be building as
-part of `g77' *must* be installed as the "active" version of `gcc' on
-the system.
-
- Sometimes people make the mistake of installing `gcc' as
-`/usr/local/bin/gcc', leaving an older, non-Fortran-aware version in
-`/usr/bin/gcc'. (Or, the opposite happens.) This can result in `gcc'
-being unable to compile Fortran source files, because when the older
-version of `gcc' is invoked, it complains that it does not recognize
-the language, or the file name suffix.
-
- So, determine whether `gcc' already is installed on your system,
-and, if so, *where* it is installed, and prepare to configure the new
-version of `gcc' you'll be building so that it installs over the
-existing version of `gcc'.
-
- You might want to back up your existing copy of `/usr/bin/gcc', and
-the entire `/usr/lib' directory, before you perform the actual
-installation (as described in this manual).
-
- Existing `gcc' installations typically are found in `/usr' or
-`/usr/local'. (This means the commands are installed in `/usr/bin' or
-`/usr/local/bin', the libraries in `/usr/lib' or `/usr/local/lib', and
-so on.)
-
- If you aren't certain where the currently installed version of `gcc'
-and its related programs reside, look at the output of this command:
-
- gcc -v -o /tmp/delete-me -xc /dev/null -xnone
-
- All sorts of interesting information on the locations of various
-`gcc'-related programs and data files should be visible in the output
-of the above command. (The output also is likely to include a
-diagnostic from the linker, since there's no `main_()' function.)
-However, you do have to sift through it yourself; `gcc' currently
-provides no easy way to ask it where it is installed and where it looks
-for the various programs and data files it calls on to do its work.
-
- Just *building* `g77' should not overwrite any installed
-programs--but, usually, after you build `g77', you will want to install
-it, so backing up anything it might overwrite is a good idea. (This is
-true for any package, not just `g77', though in this case it is
-intentional that `g77' overwrites `gcc' if it is already installed--it
-is unusual that the installation process for one distribution
-intentionally overwrites a program or file installed by another
-distribution, although, in this case, `g77' is an augmentation of the
-`gcc' distribution.)
-
- Another reason to back up the existing version first, or make sure
-you can restore it easily, is that it might be an older version on
-which other users have come to depend for certain behaviors. However,
-even the new version of `gcc' you install will offer users the ability
-to specify an older version of the actual compilation programs if
-desired, and these older versions need not include any `g77' components.
-*Note Specifying Target Machine and Compiler Version: (gcc)Target
-Options, for information on the `-V' option of `gcc'.
-
-Configuring GNU CC
-------------------
-
- `g77' is configured automatically when you configure `gcc'. There
-are two parts of `g77' that are configured in two different
-ways--`g77', which "camps on" to the `gcc' configuration mechanism, and
-`libg2c', which uses a variation of the GNU `autoconf' configuration
-system.
-
- Generally, you shouldn't have to be concerned with either `g77' or
-`libg2c' configuration, unless you're configuring `g77' as a
-cross-compiler. In this case, the `libg2c' configuration, and possibly
-the `g77' and `gcc' configurations as well, might need special
-attention. (This also might be the case if you're porting `gcc' to a
-whole new system--even if it is just a new operating system on an
-existing, supported CPU.)
-
- To configure the system, see *Note Installing GNU CC:
-(gcc)Installation, following the instructions for running `./configure'.
-Pay special attention to the `--prefix=' option, which you almost
-certainly will need to specify.
-
- (Note that `gcc' installation information is provided as a
-plain-text file in `gcc/INSTALL'.)
-
- The information printed by the invocation of `./configure' should
-show that the `f' directory (the Fortran language) has been configured.
-If it does not, there is a problem.
-
- *Note:* Configuring with the `--srcdir' argument, or by starting in
-an empty directory and typing a command such as `../gcc/configure' to
-build with separate build and source directories, is known to work with
-GNU `make', but it is known to not work with other variants of `make'.
-Irix5.2 and SunOS4.1 versions of `make' definitely won't work outside
-the source directory at present.
-
- `g77''s portion of the `configure' script used to issue a warning
-message about this when configuring for building binaries outside the
-source directory, but no longer does this as of version 0.5.23.
-
- Instead, `g77' simply rejects most common attempts to build it using
-a non-GNU `make' when the build directory is not the same as the source
-directory, issuing an explanatory diagnostic.
-
-Building GNU CC
----------------
-
- Building `g77' requires building enough of `gcc' that these
-instructions assume you're going to build all of `gcc', including
-`g++', `protoize', and so on. You can save a little time and disk
-space by changes the `LANGUAGES' macro definition in `gcc/Makefile.in'
-or `gcc/Makefile', but if you do that, you're on your own. One change
-is almost *certainly* going to cause failures: removing `c' or `f77'
-from the definition of the `LANGUAGES' macro.
-
- After configuring `gcc', which configures `g77' and `libg2c'
-automatically, you're ready to start the actual build by invoking
-`make'.
-
- *Note:* You *must* have run the `configure' script in `gcc' before
-you run `make', even if you're using an already existing `gcc'
-development directory, because `./configure' does the work to recognize
-that you've added `g77' to the configuration.
-
- There are two general approaches to building GNU CC from scratch:
-
-"bootstrap"
- This method uses minimal native system facilities to build a
- barebones, unoptimized `gcc', that is then used to compile
- ("bootstrap") the entire system.
-
-"straight"
- This method assumes a more complete native system exists, and uses
- that just once to build the entire system.
-
- On all systems without a recent version of `gcc' already installed,
-the bootstrap method must be used. In particular, `g77' uses
-extensions to the C language offered, apparently, only by `gcc'.
-
- On most systems with a recent version of `gcc' already installed,
-the straight method can be used. This is an advantage, because it
-takes less CPU time and disk space for the build. However, it does
-require that the system have fairly recent versions of many GNU
-programs and other programs, which are not enumerated here.
-
-Bootstrap Build
-...............
-
- A complete bootstrap build is done by issuing a command beginning
-with `make bootstrap ...', as described in *Note Installing GNU CC:
-(gcc)Installation. This is the most reliable form of build, but it
-does require the most disk space and CPU time, since the complete system
-is built twice (in Stages 2 and 3), after an initial build (during
-Stage 1) of a minimal `gcc' compiler using the native compiler and
-libraries.
-
- You might have to, or want to, control the way a bootstrap build is
-done by entering the `make' commands to build each stage one at a time,
-as described in the `gcc' manual. For example, to save time or disk
-space, you might want to not bother doing the Stage 3 build, in which
-case you are assuming that the `gcc' compiler you have built is
-basically sound (because you are giving up the opportunity to compare a
-large number of object files to ensure they're identical).
-
- To save some disk space during installation, after Stage 2 is built,
-you can type `rm -fr stage1' to remove the binaries built during Stage
-1.
-
- Also, see *Note Installing GNU CC: (gcc)Installation, for important
-information on building `gcc' that is not described in this `g77'
-manual. For example, explanations of diagnostic messages and whether
-they're expected, or indicate trouble, are found there.
-
-Straight Build
-..............
-
- If you have a recent version of `gcc' already installed on your
-system, and if you're reasonably certain it produces code that is
-object-compatible with the version of `gcc' you want to build as part
-of building `g77', you can save time and disk space by doing a straight
-build.
-
- To build just the compilers along with the necessary run-time
-libraries, issue the following command:
-
- make -k CC=gcc
-
- If you run into problems using this method, you have two options:
-
- * Abandon this approach and do a bootstrap build.
-
- * Try to make this approach work by diagnosing the problems you're
- running into and retrying.
-
- Especially if you do the latter, you might consider submitting any
-solutions as bug/fix reports. *Note Known Causes of Trouble with GNU
-Fortran: Trouble.
-
- However, understand that many problems preventing a straight build
-from working are not `g77' problems, and, in such cases, are not likely
-to be addressed in future versions of `g77'. Consider treating them as
-`gcc' bugs instead.
-
-Pre-installation Checks
------------------------
-
- Before installing the system, which includes installing `gcc', you
-might want to do some minimum checking to ensure that some basic things
-work.
-
- Here are some commands you can try, and output typically printed by
-them when they work:
-
- sh# cd /usr/src/gcc
- sh# ./g77 -B./ -v
- g77 version 0.5.25
- Driving: ./g77 -B./ -v -c -xf77-version /dev/null -xnone
- Reading specs from ./specs

- gcc version 2.8.1
- ./cpp -lang-c -v -isystem ./include -undef ...
- GNU CPP version 2.8.1 (Alpha GNU/Linux with ELF)
- #include "..." search starts here:
- #include <...> search starts here:
- include
- /usr/alpha-linux/include
- /usr/lib/gcc-lib/alpha-linux/2.8.1/include
- /usr/include
- End of search list.
- ./cc1 /tmp/cca18063.i -quiet -dumpbase null.c -version ...

- ../sysdeps/alpha/elf/start.S:77: undefined reference to `main'
- sh#
-
- (Note that long lines have been truncated, and `...' used to
-indicate such truncations.)
-
- The above two commands test whether `g77' and `gcc', respectively,
-are able to compile empty (null) source files, whether invocation of
-the C preprocessor works, whether libraries can be linked, and so on.
-
- If the output you get from either of the above two commands is
-noticeably different, especially if it is shorter or longer in ways
-that do not look consistent with the above sample output, you probably
-should not install `gcc' and `g77' until you have investigated further.
-
- For example, you could try compiling actual applications and seeing
-how that works. (You might want to do that anyway, even if the above
-tests work.)
-
- To compile using the not-yet-installed versions of `gcc' and `g77',
-use the following commands to invoke them.
-
- To invoke `g77', type:
-
- /usr/src/gcc/g77 -B/usr/src/gcc/ ...
-
- To invoke `gcc', type:
-
- /usr/src/gcc/xgcc -B/usr/src/gcc/ ...
-
-Installation of Binaries
-------------------------
-
- After configuring, building, and testing `g77' and `gcc', when you
-are ready to install them on your system, type:
-
- make -k CC=gcc install
-
- As described in *Note Installing GNU CC: (gcc)Installation, the
-values for the `CC' and `LANGUAGES' macros should be the same as those
-you supplied for the build itself.
-
- So, the details of the above command might vary if you used a
-bootstrap build (where you might be able to omit both definitions, or
-might have to supply the same definitions you used when building the
-final stage) or if you deviated from the instructions for a straight
-build.
-
- If the above command does not install `libg2c.a' as expected, try
-this:
-
- make -k ... install install-libf77
-
- We don't know why some non-GNU versions of `make' sometimes require
-this alternate command, but they do. (Remember to supply the
-appropriate definition for `CC' where you see `...' in the above
-command.)
-
- Note that using the `-k' option tells `make' to continue after some
-installation problems, like not having `makeinfo' installed on your
-system. It might not be necessary for your system.
-
- *Note:* `g77' no longer installs files not directly part of `g77',
-such as `/usr/bin/f77', `/usr/lib/libf2c.a', and `/usr/include/f2c.h',
-or their `/usr/local' equivalents.
-
- *Note Distributing Binaries::, for information on how to accommodate
-systems with no existing non-`g77' `f77' compiler and systems with
-`f2c' installed.
-
-Updating Your Info Directory
-----------------------------
-
- As part of installing `g77', you should make sure users of `info'
-can easily access this manual on-line.
-
- `g77' does this automatically by invoking the `install-info' command
-when you use `make install' to install `g77'.
-
- If that fails, or if the `info' directory it updates is not the one
-normally accessed by users, consider invoking it yourself. For example:
-
- install-info --info-dir=/usr/info /usr/info/g77.info
-
- The above example assumes the `g77' documentation already is
-installed in `/usr/info' and that `/usr/info/dir' is the file you wish
-to update. Adjust the command accordingly, if those assumptions are
-wrong.
-
-Missing tools?
---------------
-
- A build of `gcc' might fail due to one or more tools being called
-upon by `make' (during the build or install process), when those tools
-are not installed on your system.
-
- This situation can result from any of the following actions
-(performed by you or someone else):
-
- * Changing the source code or documentation yourself (as a developer
- or technical writer).
-
- * Applying a patch that changes the source code or documentation
- (including, sometimes, the official patches distributed by the
- FSF).
-
- * Deleting the files that are created by the (missing) tools.
-
- The `make maintainer-clean' command is supposed to delete these
- files, so invoking this command without having all the appropriate
- tools installed is not recommended.
-
- * Creating the source directory using a method that does not
- preserve the date-time-modified information in the original
- distribution.
-
- For example, the UNIX `cp -r' command copies a directory tree
- without preserving the date-time-modified information. Use `cp
- -pr' instead.
-
- The reason these activities cause `make' to try and invoke tools
-that it probably wouldn't when building from a perfectly "clean" source
-directory containing `gcc' and `g77' is that some files in the source
-directory (and the corresponding distribution) aren't really source
-files, but *derived* files that are produced by running tools with the
-corresponding source files as input. These derived files "depend", in
-`make' terminology, on the corresponding source files.
-
- `make' determines that a file that depends on another needs to be
-updated if the date-time-modified information for the source file shows
-that it is newer than the corresponding information for the derived
-file.
-
- If it makes that determination, `make' runs the appropriate commands
-(specified in the "Makefile") to update the derived file, and this
-process typically calls upon one or more installed tools to do the work.
-
- The "safest" approach to dealing with this situation is to recreate
-the `gcc' and `g77' source directories from complete `gcc' and `g77'
-distributions known to be provided by the FSF.
-
- Another fairly "safe" approach is to simply install the tools you
-need to complete the build process. This is especially appropriate if
-you've changed the source code or applied a patch to do so.
-
- However, if you're certain that the problem is limited entirely to
-incorrect date-time-modified information, that there are no
-discrepancies between the contents of source files and files derived
-from them in the source directory, you can often update the
-date-time-modified information for the derived files to work around the
-problem of not having the appropriate tools installed.
-
- On UNIX systems, the simplest way to update the date-time-modified
-information of a file is to use the use the `touch' command.
-
- How to use `touch' to update the derived files updated by each of
-the tools is described below. *Note:* New versions of `g77' might
-change the set of files it generates by invoking each of these tools.
-If you cannot figure out for yourself how to handle such a situation,
-try an older version of `g77' until you find someone who can (or until
-you obtain and install the relevant tools).
-
-Missing `autoconf'?
-...................
-
- If you cannot install `autoconf', make sure you have started with a
-*fresh* distribution of `gcc' and `g77', do *not* do `make
-maintainer-clean', and, to ensure that `autoconf' is not invoked by
-`make' during the build, type these commands:
-
- sh# cd egcs/libf2c
- sh# touch configure libU77/configure
- sh# cd ../../..
- sh#
-
-Missing `bison'?

-further processing.
-
- If you cannot install `makeinfo', an easy work-around is to specify
-`MAKEINFO=true' on the `make' command line, or to specify the `-k'
-option (`make -k install').
-
- Another approach is to force the relevant files to be up-to-date by

Distributing Binaries
=====================
- If you are building `g77' for distribution to others in binary form,
-first make sure you are aware of your legal responsibilities (read the
-file `gcc/COPYING' thoroughly).
-
- Then, consider your target audience and decide where `g77' should be
-installed.
-
- For systems like GNU/Linux that have no native Fortran compiler (or
-where `g77' could be considered the native compiler for Fortran and
-`gcc' for C, etc.), you should definitely configure `g77' for
-installation in `/usr/bin' instead of `/usr/local/bin'. Specify the
-`--prefix=/usr' option when running `./configure'.
-
- You might also want to set up the distribution so the `f77' command
-is a link to `g77', although a script that accepts "classic" UNIX `f77'
-options and translates the command-line to the appropriate `g77'
-command line would be more appropriate. If you do this, *please* also
-provide a "man page" in `man/man1/f77.1' describing the command. (A
-link to `man/man1/g77.1' is appropriate if `bin/f77' is a link to
-`bin/g77'.)
-
- For a system that might already have `f2c' installed, consider
-whether inter-operation with `g77' will be important to users of `f2c'
-on that system. If you want to improve the likelihood that users will
-be able to use both `f2c' and `g77' to compile code for a single program
-without encountering link-time or run-time incompatibilities, make sure
-that, whenever they intend to combine `f2c'-produced code with
-`g77'-produced code in an executable, they:
-
- * Use the `lib/gcc-lib/.../include/g2c.h' file generated by the
- `g77' build in place of the `f2c.h' file that normally comes with
- `f2c' (or versions of `g77' prior to 0.5.23) when compiling *all*
- of the `f2c'-produced C code
-
- * Link to the `lib/gcc-lib/.../libg2c.a' library built by the `g77'
- build instead of the `libf2c.a' library that normally comes with
- `f2c' (or versions of `g77' prior to 0.5.23)
-
- How you choose to effect the above depends on whether the existing
-installation of `f2c' must be maintained.
-
- In any case, it is important to try and ensure that the installation
-keeps working properly even after subsequent re-installation of `f2c',
-which probably involves overwriting `/usr/local/lib/libf2c.a' and
-`/usr/local/include/f2c.h', or similar.
-
- At least, copying `libg2c.a' and `g2c.h' into the appropriate
-"public" directories allows users to more easily select the version of
-`libf2c' they wish to use for a particular build. The names are
-changed by `g77' to make this coexistence easier to maintain; even if
-`f2c' is installed later, the `g77' files normally installed by its
-installation process aren't disturbed. Use of symbolic links from one
-set of files to another might result in problems after a subsequent
-reinstallation of either `f2c' or `g77', so be sure to alert users of
-your distribution accordingly.
-
- (Make sure you clearly document, in the description of your
-distribution, how installation of your distribution will affect
-existing installations of `gcc', `f2c', `f77', `libf2c.a', and so on.
-Similarly, you should clearly document any requirements you assume will
-be met by users of your distribution.)
-
- For other systems with native `f77' (and `cc') compilers, configure
-`g77' as you (or most of your audience) would configure `gcc' for their
-installations. Typically this is for installation in `/usr/local', and
-would not include a new version of `/usr/bin/f77' or
-`/usr/local/bin/f77', so users could still use the native `f77'.
-
- In any case, for `g77' to work properly, you *must* ensure that the
-binaries you distribute include:
-
-`bin/g77'
- This is the command most users use to compile Fortran.
-
-`bin/gcc'
- This is the command some users use to compile Fortran, typically
- when compiling programs written in other languages at the same
- time. The `bin/gcc' executable file must have been built from a
- `gcc' source tree into which a `g77' source tree was merged and
- configured, or it will not know how to compile Fortran programs.
-
-`info/g77.info*'
- This is the documentation for `g77'. If it is not included, users
- will have trouble understanding diagnostics messages and other
- such things, and will send you a lot of email asking questions.
-
- Please edit this documentation (by editing `egcs/gcc/f/*.texi' and
- doing `make doc' from the `/usr/src/gcc' directory) to reflect any
- changes you've made to `g77', or at least to encourage users of
- your binary distribution to report bugs to you first.
-
- Also, whether you distribute binaries or install `g77' on your own
- system, it might be helpful for everyone to add a line listing
- this manual by name and topic to the top-level `info' node in
- `/usr/info/dir'. That way, users can find `g77' documentation more
- easily. *Note Updating Your Info Directory: Updating
- Documentation.
-
-`man/man1/g77.1'
- This is the short man page for `g77'. It is not always kept
- up-to-date, but you might as well include it for people who really
- like "man" pages.
-
-`lib/gcc-lib'
- This is the directory containing the "private" files installed by
- and for `gcc', `g77', `g++', and other GNU compilers.
-
-`lib/gcc-lib/.../f771'
- This is the actual Fortran compiler.
-
-`lib/gcc-lib/.../libg2c.a'
- This is the run-time library for `g77'-compiled programs.
-
- Whether you want to include the slightly updated (and possibly
-improved) versions of `cc1', `cc1plus', and whatever other binaries get
-rebuilt with the changes the GNU Fortran distribution makes to the GNU
-back end, is up to you. These changes are highly unlikely to break any
-compilers, because they involve doing things like adding to the list of
-acceptable compiler options (so, for example, `cc1plus' accepts, and
-ignores, options that only `f771' actually processes).
-
- Please assure users that unless they have a specific need for their
-existing, older versions of `gcc' command, they are unlikely to
-experience any problems by overwriting it with your version--though
-they could certainly protect themselves by making backup copies first!
-
- Otherwise, users might try and install your binaries in a "safe"
-place, find they cannot compile Fortran programs with your distribution
-(because, perhaps, they're invoking their old version of the `gcc'
-command, which does not recognize Fortran programs), and assume that
-your binaries (or, more generally, GNU Fortran distributions in
-general) are broken, at least for their system.
-
- Finally, *please* ask for bug reports to go to you first, at least
-until you're sure your distribution is widely used and has been well
-tested. This especially goes for those of you making any changes to
-the `g77' sources to port `g77', e.g. to OS/2. <fortran@gnu.org> has
-received a fair number of bug reports that turned out to be problems
-with other peoples' ports and distributions, about which nothing could
-be done for the user. Once you are quite certain a bug report does not
-involve your efforts, you can forward it to us.
