- Platform specific notes:
- ------------------------
-
-================
- Darwin (OS X):
- Apache 2.0 relies heavily on the use of autoconf and libtool to
- provide a build environment. Darwin provides these tools as part
- of the Developers Tools package. Under Darwin, however, GNUlibtool
- is installed as 'glibtool' to avoid conflicting with the Darwin
- 'libtool' program. Apache 2.0 knows about this so that's not
- a problem.
-
- As of OS X 10.2 (Jaguar), the bundled versions work perfectly. Partly
- this is due to the fact that /bin/sh is now 'bash' and not 'zsh' as
- well as the fact that the bundled versions are up-to-date:
- autoconf 2.5.2 and (g)libtool 1.4.2.
-
- Earlier versions of OS X are not so fortunate, and the bundled tools
- are not only older versions, but also, for the most part, do not work
- well. If you are interested in developing under Darwin, we
- recommend that you obtain and install replacement versions of what
- are normally installed on Darwin (and OS X, as of v10.1.5). If
- you build your own versions of autoconf 2.52 and libtool 1.4.2, be
- aware that there are some Darwin specific patches to the official
- code that still must be applied for them to fully work. A useful
- page to check out is:
-
- http://fink.sourceforge.net/doc/porting/libtool.php
-
- Pier Fumagalli also provides pre-built Darwin packages of the
- patched autoconf and libtool suites, available at:
-
- http://www.apache.org/~pier/macosx/
-
- You will note that GNU libtool should actually be installed as
- glibtool, to avoid conflict with a Darwin program of the same
- name. Pier's packages have this change already. All files are
- installed under /usr/local/ so to use these versions, and be sure
- that /usr/local/bin is earlier in your PATH.
-
- There have been some reports that autoconf 2.52 prevents Apache's
- build system from correctly handling passing multi-value envvars
- to the build system (eg: CFLAGS="-g -O3" ./configure), causing
- errors. Use of bash does not seem to help in this situation. If
- this affects you, downgrading to autoconf 2.13 (which is installed
- on Darwin) will help.
-
-==========
- FreeBSD:
- autoconf 2.52 creates scripts that are incompatible with the Posix
- shell implementation (/bin/sh) on FreeBSD. Be sure to use v2.13
- of autoconf.
-
-================
- HP-UX:
- The dlopen() system call in HP-UX has problems when loading/unloading
- C++ modules. The problem can be resolved by using shl_load() instead
- of dlopen(). This is fixed in the Apache 2.0.44 release.
- To enable loading of C++ modules, the httpd binary has to be linked with
- the following libraries :
-
- HP-UX (11.0 / 11i):
- When using shl_load : "cpprt0_stub.s -lcl"
- When using dlopen : "cpprt0_stub.s -lcl -lCsup"
-
- HP-UX (11i version 1.5 and greater):
- When using dlopen/shl_load : "cpprt0_stub.s -lcl -lunwind"
-
- The cpprt0_stub.s can be downloaded from the web site :
- http://h21007.www2.hp.com/hpux-devtools/CXX/hpux-devtools.0107/0083.html
-
- Compile cpprt0_stub.s with the PIC option
- cc -c +z cpprt0_stub.s
- - OR -
- gcc -c -fPIC cpprt0_stub.s
-
-================
- AIX, using the vendor C compiler with optimization:
- There is an issue with compiling server/core.c with optimization enabled
- which has been seen with C for AIX 5.0.2.3 and above. (5.0.2.0, 5.0.2.1,
- and 5.0.2.2 have an additional problem with Apache 2.0.x, so either upgrade
- the compiler or don't use optimization in order to avoid it.)
-
- cc_r works fine with -O2 but xlc_r does not. In order to use xlc_r with
- -O2, apply the patch at
-
- http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/patches/apply_to_2.0.49/aix_xlc_optimization.patch
-
- (That patch works with many recent levels of Apache 2+.)
