|
The code in this tree is based (it is actually an exact copy with some
|
|
ReactOS specific extra files) on the FreeType library, version 2.3.0
|
|
It was written and is being maintained by the FreeType team. The projects
|
|
website is http://www.freetype.org.
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTES
|
|
|
|
Please note that there are two Makefiles in the freetype directory:
|
|
- Makefile.freetype which is the original Makefile from the FreeType
|
|
distribution
|
|
- Makefile which is the ReactOS specific Makefile. It will use the
|
|
original Makefile.freetype when needed.
|
|
Normally you will just use Makefile and not worry about Makefile.freetype.
|
|
There will also be 2 FreeType libraries, lib/freetype/objs/libfreetype.a
|
|
and dk/nkm/lib/freetype.a. The second one is the import library for
|
|
freetype.dll and is the one that is used in the rest of ReactOS.
|
|
lib/freetype/objs/libfreetype.a is a static library which is used to
|
|
create the DLL.
|
|
|
|
|
|
PORTING A NEW VERSION
|
|
|
|
Please note that the procedure below is a one-time only procedure, to be
|
|
performed by whoever imports a new FreeType version into the ReactOS
|
|
source tree. Once the new version has been committed to CVS all other
|
|
developers can just use the normal build procedure.
|
|
|
|
First, save the old version:
|
|
|
|
move lib\freetype lib\freetype.old
|
|
|
|
Unpack the FreeType distribution and copy the files to lib/freetype
|
|
(note: without the version number which is present in the pathnames in
|
|
the distribution archive).
|
|
Setup the FreeType build by copying the correct configuration file:
|
|
|
|
copy lib\freetype\builds\win32\w32-mingw32.mk lib\freetype\config.mk
|
|
|
|
Copy the ReactOS specific files from the old directory to the new:
|
|
|
|
move lib\freetype\Makefile lib\freetype\Makefile.freetype
|
|
mkdir lib\freetype\i386
|
|
copy lib\freetype.old\rosglue.c lib\freetype
|
|
copy lib\freetype.old\i386\setjmplongjmp.s lib\freetype\i386
|
|
copy lib\freetype.old\freetype.rc lib\freetype
|
|
copy lib\freetype.old\Makefile lib\freetype
|
|
copy lib\freetype.old\README.ROS lib\freetype
|
|
copy lib\freetype.old\Doxyfile lib\freetype
|
|
copy lib\freetype.old\.cvsignore lib\freetype
|
|
copy lib\freetype.old\objs\.cvsignore lib\freetype\objs
|
|
copy lib\freetype.old\i386\.cvsignore lib\freetype\i386
|
|
|
|
Next you need to create the freetype.def file. Since this depends on the
|
|
"gawk" command, you'll need to have MSYS installed, which is not one of
|
|
the normally required packages to build ReactOS. You can get MSYS from the
|
|
MinGW site at http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw. Once you have MSYS
|
|
installed you can create the new freetype.def file:
|
|
|
|
make freetype_def
|
|
|
|
Well, that's all there is to it. You can delete the old version in
|
|
lib\freetype.old. Please adjust the version number in the heading of this
|
|
file, so it is obvious to everyone which FreeType version we're using.
|
|
After testing, you can commit the new/changed files to CVS. ALthough files
|
|
config.mk and freetype.def are generated, they should be included in CVS.
