-<p><code>doc/install.html</code> is the HTML file for this document. <a HREF="4.html"><code>doc/4.html</code></a>
-describes the internal differences between lcc 3.x and 4.1.</p>
-
-<p>The installation makefile is designed so that lcc can be installed from a read-only
-file system or directory, which is common in networked environments, so the distribution
-can be unloaded on a central file server. <strong>You will need an existing ANSI/ISO C
-compiler to build and install lcc.</strong></p>
-
-<h2><a NAME="unix">Installation on UNIX</a></h2>
-
-<p>The compilation components (the preprocessor, include files, and compiler proper, etc.)
-are installed in a single <em>build directory</em>. On multi-platform systems supported by
-a central file server, it's common to store the build directory in a location specific to
-the platform and to the version of lcc, and to point a symbolic link to this location. For
-example,</p>
-
-<blockquote>
- <pre>% ln -s /usr/local/lib/lcc-4.1/sparc-solaris /usr/local/lib/lcc</pre>
-</blockquote>
-
-<p>points <code>/usr/local/lib/lcc</code> to a build directory for lcc version 4.1 on the
-SPARC under Solaris. Links into <code>/usr/local/lib</code> are created for the programs <code>lcc</code>
-and <code>bprint</code>. Thus, a new distribution can be installed by building it in its
-own build directory and changing one symbolic link to point to that directory. If these
-conventions or their equivalents are followed, the host-specific parts of the driver
-program, <code>lcc</code>, can be used unmodified.</p>
-
-<p>Installation on a UNIX system involves the following steps. Below, the build directory
-is referred to as <code>BUILDDIR</code>.
-
-<ol>
- <li>Create the build directory, using a version- and platform-specific naming convention as
- suggested above, and record the name of this directory in the <code>BUILDDIR</code>
- environment variable:<blockquote>
- <pre>% setenv BUILDDIR /usr/local/lib/lcc-4.1/sparc-solaris
-% mkdir -p $BUILDDIR</pre>
- </blockquote>
- <p>Here and below, commands assume the C shell. Also, you'll need a version of <code>mkdir</code>
- that supports the <code>-p</code> option, which creates intermediate directories as
- necessary.</p>
- </li>
- <li>Copy the man pages to the repository for local man pages, e.g.,<blockquote>
- <pre>% cp doc/*.1 /usr/local/man/man1</pre>
- </blockquote>
- <p>Some users copy the man pages to the build directory and create the appropriate
- symbolic links, e.g., </p>
- <blockquote>
- <pre>% cp doc/*.1 $BUILDDIR
-% ln -s $BUILDDIR/*.1 /usr/local/man/man1</pre>
- </blockquote>
- </li>
- <li>Platform-specific include files are in directories named <code>include/</code><em>target</em><code>/</code><em>os</em>.
- Create the include directory in the build directory, and copy the include hierarchy for
- your platform to this directory, e.g.,<blockquote>
- <pre>% mkdir $BUILDDIR/include
-% cp -p -R include/sparc/solaris/* $BUILDDIR/include</pre>
- </blockquote>
- <p>Again, some users create a symbolic link to the appropriate directory in the
- distribution instead of copying the include files. For example, at Princeton, the
- distributions are stored under <code>/proj/pkg/lcc</code>, so the included files are
- &quot;installed&quot; by creating one symbolic link: </p>
- <blockquote>
- <pre>% ln -s /proj/pkg/lcc/4.1/include/sparc/solaris $BUILDDIR/include</pre>
- </blockquote>
- <p>If you're installing lcc on Linux, you <em>must</em> also plant a symbolic link named <code>gcc</code>
- to gcc's library directory, because lcc uses gcc's C preprocessor and most of gcc's header
- files:</p>
- <blockquote>
- <pre>% ln -s /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/2.7.2.2 $BUILDDIR/gcc</pre>
- </blockquote>
- <p>The library directory shown above may be different on your Linux machine; to determine
- the correct directory, browse <code>/usr/lib/gcc-lib</code>, or execute</p>
- <blockquote>
- <pre>% cc -v tst/8q.c</pre>
- </blockquote>
- <p>and examine the diagnostic output. Make sure that <code>$BUILDDIR/gcc/cpp</code> and <code>$BUILDDIR/gcc/include</code>
- point to, respectively, gcc's C preprocessor and header files. On Linux, lcc looks for
- include files in <code>$BUILDDIR/include</code>, <code>$BUILDDIR/gcc/include</code>, and <code>/usr/include</code>,
- in that order; see <a HREF="#driver"><em>Building the Driver</em></a> and <a
- href="../etc/linux.c"><code>etc/linux.c</code></a> for details.</p>
- </li>
- <li>The <a HREF="../makefile"><code>makefile</code></a> includes the file named by the <code>CUSTOM</code>
- macro; the default is <code>custom.mk</code>, and an empty <code>custom.mk</code> is
- included in the distribution. If desired, prepare a site-specification customization file
- and define <code>CUSTOM</code> to the path of that file when invoking make in steps 5 and
- 6, e.g.,<blockquote>
- <pre>make CUSTOM=/users/drh/solaris.mk</pre>
- </blockquote>
- <p>You can, for example, use customization files to record site-specific values for macros
- instead of using environment variables, and to record targets for the steps in this list.</p>
- </li>
- <li>Build the host-specific driver, creating a custom host-specific part, if necessary. See <a
- HREF="#driver"><em>Building the Driver</em></a>.</li>
- <li>Build the preprocessor, compiler proper, library, and other accessories. See <a
- HREF="#rcc"><em>Building the Compiler</em></a>.</li>
- <li>Plant symbolic links to the build directory and to the installed programs, e.g.,<blockquote>
- <pre>% ln -s $BUILDDIR /usr/local/lib/lcc
-% ln -s /usr/local/lib/{lcc,bprint} /usr/local/bin</pre>
- </blockquote>
- <p>Some users copy <code>bprint</code> and <code>lcc</code> into <code>/usr/local/bin</code>
- instead of creating symbolic links. The advantange of creating the links for <code>lcc</code>
- and <code>bprint</code> as shown is that, once established, they point indirectly to
- whatever <code>/usr/local/lib/lcc</code> points to; installing a new version of lcc, say,
- 4.2, can be done by changing <code>/usr/local/lib/lcc</code> to point to the 4.2 build
- directory.</p>
- </li>
-</ol>
-
-<h2><a NAME="driver">Building the Driver</a></h2>
-
-<p>The preprocessor, compiler, assembler, and loader are invoked by a driver program, <code>lcc</code>,
-which is similar to <code>cc</code> on most systems. It's described in the man page <code>doc/lcc.1</code>.
-The driver is built by combining the host-independent part, <a href="../etc/lcc.c"><code>etc/lcc.c</code></a>,
-with a small host-specific part. Distributed host-specific parts are named <code>etc/</code><em>os</em><code>.c</code>,
-where <em>os</em> is the name of the operating system for the host on which <code>lcc</code>
-is being installed. If you're following the installations conventions described above, you
-can probably use one of the host-specific parts unmodified; otherwise, pick one that is
-closely related to your platform, copy it to <em>whatever</em><code>.c</code>, and edit it
-as described below. You should not have to edit <code>etc/lcc.c</code>.</p>
-
-<p>We'll use <a HREF="../etc/solaris.c"><code>etc/solaris.c</code></a> as an example in
-describing how the host-specific part works. This example illustrates all the important
-features. Make sure you have the environment variable <code>BUILDDIR</code> set correctly,
-and build the driver with a <code>make</code> command, e.g.,</p>
-
-<blockquote>
- <pre>% make HOSTFILE=etc/solaris.c lcc
-cc -g -c -DTEMPDIR=\&quot;/tmp\&quot; -o /usr/local/lib/lcc-4.1/sparc-solaris/lcc.o etc/lcc.c
-cc -g -c -o /usr/local/lib/lcc-4.1/sparc-solaris/host.o etc/solaris.c
-cc -g -o /usr/local/lib/lcc-4.1/sparc-solaris/lcc /usr/local/lib/lcc-4.1/sparc-solaris/lcc.o /usr/local/lib/lcc-4.1/sparc-solaris/host.o</pre>
-</blockquote>
-
-<p>The symbolic name <code>HOSTFILE</code> specifies the path to the host-specific part,
-either one in the distribution or <em>whatever</em><code>.c</code>. Some versions of make
-may require the <code>-e</code> option in order to read the environment.</p>

-
-<p><code>LCCDIR</code> defaults to <code>&quot;/usr/local/lib/lcc/&quot;</code> unless
-it's defined by a <code>-D</code> option as part of <code>CFLAGS</code> in the make
-command, e.g.,</p>
-
-<blockquote>
- <pre>% make HOSTFILE=etc/solaris.c CFLAGS='-DLCCDIR=\&quot;/v/lib/lcc/\&quot;' lcc</pre>
-</blockquote>
-
-<p>Note the trailing slash; <code>SUNDIR</code> is provided so you can use <code>etc/solaris.c</code>
-even if you have a different version of the Sun Pro compiler suite. If you're using the
-gcc compiler tools instead of the Sun Pro tools, see <a HREF="../etc/gcc-solaris.c"><code>etc/gcc-solaris.c</code></a>.</p>
-
-<p>Most of the host-specific code is platform-specific data and templates for the commands
-that invoke the preprocessor, compiler, assembler, and loader. The <code>suffixes</code>
-array lists the file name suffixes for C source files, preprocessed source files, assembly
-language source files, object files, and executable files. <code>suffixes</code> must be
-terminated with a null pointer, as shown above. The initialization of <code>suffixes</code>
-in <code><a HREF="../etc/solaris.c">etc/solaris.c</a></code> are the typical ones for UNIX
-systems. Each element of <code>suffixes</code> is actually a list of suffixes, separated
-by semicolons; <code><a HREF="../etc/win32.c">etc/win32.c</a></code> holds an example:</p>
-
-<blockquote>
- <pre>char *suffixes[] = { &quot;.c;.C&quot;, &quot;.i;.I&quot;, &quot;.asm;.ASM;.s;.S&quot;, &quot;.obj;.OBJ&quot;, &quot;.exe&quot;, 0 };</pre>
-</blockquote>
-
-<p>When a list is given, the first suffix is used whenever lcc needs to generate a file
-name. For example, with <code><a HREF="../etc/win32.c">etc/win32.c</a></code>, lcc emits
-the generated assembly code into <code>.asm</code> files.</p>
-
-<p>The <code>inputs</code> array holds a null-terminated string of directories separated
-by colons or semicolons. These are used as the default value of <code>LCCINPUTS</code>, if
-the environment variable <code>LCCINPUTS</code> is not set; see the <a HREF="lcc.pdf">man
-page</a>.</p>
-
-<p>Each command template is an array of pointers to strings terminated with a null
-pointer; the strings are full path names of commands, arguments, or argument placeholders,
-which are described below. Commands are executed in a child process, and templates can
-contain multiple commands by separating commands with newlines. The driver runs each
-command in a new process.</p>
-
-<p>The <code>cpp</code> array gives the command for running lcc's preprocessor, <code>cpp</code>.
-Literal arguments specified in templates, e.g., <code>&quot;-Dsparc&quot;</code> in the <code>cpp</code>
-command above, are passed to the command as given.</p>
-
-<p>The strings <code>&quot;$1&quot;</code>, <code>&quot;$2&quot;</code>, and <code>&quot;$3&quot;</code>
-in templates are placeholders for <em>lists</em> of arguments that are substituted in a
-copy of the template before the command is executed. <code>$1</code> is replaced by the <em>options</em>
-specified by the user; for the preprocessor, this list always contains at least <code>-D__LCC__</code>.
-<code>$2</code> is replaced by the <em>input</em> files, and <code>$3</code> is replaced
-by the <em>output</em> file.</p>
-
-<p>Zero-length arguments after replacement are removed from the argument list before the
-command is invoked. So, for example, if the preprocessor is invoked without an output
-file, <code>&quot;$3&quot;</code> becomes <code>&quot;&quot;</code>, which is removed from
-the final argument list.</p>
-
-<p>The <code>include</code> array is a list of <code>-I</code> options that specify which
-directives should be searched to satisfy include directives. These directories are
-searched in the order given. The first directory should be the one to which the ANSI
-header files were copied as described in <a HREF="#unix">UNIX</a> or <a HREF="#win32">Windows</a>
-installation instructions. The driver adds these options to <code>cpp</code>'s arguments
-when it invokes the preprocessor, except when <code>-N</code> is specified.</p>
-
-<p><code>com</code> gives the command for invoking the compiler. This template can appear
-as shown above in a custom host-specific part, but the option <code>-target=sparc/solaris</code>
-should be edited to the <em>target</em><code>/</code><em>os</em> for your platform. If <code>com[1]</code>
-includes the string &quot;<code>win32</code>&quot;, the driver assumes it's running on
-Windows. lcc can generate code for <em>all</em> of the <em>target</em><code>/</code><em>os</em>
-combinations listed in the file <code>src/bind.c</code>. The <code>-target</code> option
-specifies the default combination. The driver's <code>-Wf</code> option can be used to
-specify other combinations; the <a HREF="lcc.pdf">man page</a> elaborates.</p>
-
-<p><code>as</code> gives the command for invoking the assembler. On Linux, you must be
-running at least version 2.8.1 of the GNU assembler; earlier versions mis-assemble some
-instructions emitted by lcc.</p>
-
-<p><code>ld</code> gives the command for invoking the loader. For the other commands, the
-list <code>$2</code> contains a single file; for <code>ld</code>, <code>$2</code> contains
-all &quot;.o&quot; files and libraries, and <code>$3</code> is <code>a.out</code>, unless
-the <code>-o</code> option is specified. As suggested in the code above, <code>ld</code>
-must also specify the appropriate startup code and default libraries, including the lcc
-library, <code>liblcc.a</code>.</p>
-
-<p>The <code>option</code> function is described below; the minimal <code>option</code>
-function just returns 0.</p>
-
-<p>You can test <code>lcc</code> with the options <code>-v -v</code> to display the
-commands that would be executed, e.g.,</p>

-<code>-p</code>, <code>-pg</code>, and <code>-b</code> because these compiler options
-might also affect the loader's arguments. For these options, the driver calls <code>option(arg)</code>
-to give the host-specific code an opportunity to edit the <code>ld</code> command, if
-necessary. <code>option</code> can change <code>ld</code>, if necessary, and return 1 to
-announce its acceptance of the option. If the option is unsupported, <code>option</code>
-should return 0.</p>
-
-<p>For example, in response to <code>-g</code>, the <code>option</code> function shown
-above accepts the option but does nothing else, because the <code>ld</code> and <code>as</code>
-commands don't need to be modified on the SPARC. <code>-g</code> will also be added to the
-compiler's options by the host-independent part of the driver. The <code>-p</code> causes <code>option</code>
-to change the name of the startup code and changed the list of libraries. The <code>-b</code>
-option turns on <code>lcc</code>'s per-expression profiling, the code for which is in <code>liblcc.a</code>,
-so <code>option</code> need no nothing.</p>
-
-<p>On SPARCs, the driver also recognizes <code>-Bstatic</code> and <code>-Bdynamic</code>
-as linker options. The driver recognizes but ignores &quot;<code>-target</code> <em>name</em>&quot;
-option.</p>
-
-<p>The option <code>-Wo</code><em>arg</em> causes the driver to pass <em>arg</em> to <code>option</code>.
-Such options have no other effect; this mechanism is provided to support system-specific
-options that affect the commands executed by the driver. As illustrated above,
-host-specific parts should support the <code>-Wo-lccdir=</code><em>dir</em> option, which
-causes lcc's compilation components to be found in <em>dir</em>, because this option is
-used by the test scripts, and because the driver simulates a <code>-Wo-lccdir</code>
-option with the value of the environment variable <code>LCCDIR</code>, if it's defined.
-The code above rebuilds the paths to the include files, preprocessor, compiler, and
-library by calling <code>concat</code>, which is defined in <code>etc/lcc.c</code>.</p>
-
-<h2><a NAME="rcc">Building the Compiler and Accessories</a></h2>
-
-<p>To build the rest of compilation components make sure <code>BUILDDIR</code> is set
-appropriately and type &quot;<code>make all</code>&quot;. This command builds <code>librcc.a</code>
-(the compiler's private library), <code>rcc</code> (the compiler proper), <code>lburg</code>
-(the code-generator generator), <code>cpp</code> (the preprocessor), <code>liblcc.a</code>
-(the runtime library), and <code>bprint</code> (the profile printer), all in <code>BUILDDIR</code>.
-There may be warnings, but there should be no errors. If you're using an ANSI/ISO compiler
-other than <code>cc</code>, specify its name with the <code>CC=</code> option, e.g.,
-&quot;<code>make CC=gcc all</code>&quot;. If you're running on a DEC ALPHA, use &quot;<code>make
-CC='cc -std1' all</code>&quot;; the <code>-std1</code> option is essential on the ALPHA.
-If you're on a DEC 5000 running Ultrix 4.3, use &quot;<code>make CC=c89 all</code>&quot;.</p>
-
-<p>Once <code>rcc</code> is built with the host C compiler, run the test suite to verify
-that <code>rcc</code> is working correctly. If any of the steps below fail, contact us
-(see <a HREF="#bugs"><em>Reporting Bugs</em></a>). The commands in the makefile run the
-shell script <code>src/run.sh</code> on each C program in the test suite, <code>tst/*.c</code>.
-It uses the driver, <code>$BUILDDIR/lcc</code>, so you must have the driver in the build
-directory before testing <code>rcc</code>. The <em>target</em><code>/</code><em>os</em>
-combination is read from the variable <code>TARGET</code>, which must be specified when
-invoking <code>make</code>:</p>

-
-<p>where <em>X</em> is the base name of the C program <em>X</em><code>.c</code> in the

-is generating code for a <code>sparc</code> running the <code>solaris</code> operating
-system.&quot;</p>
-
-<p>For each program in the test suite, <code>src/run.sh</code> compiles the program, drops
-the generated assembly language code in <code>BUILDDIR</code>/<em>target</em><code>/</code><em>os</em>,
-and uses <code>diff</code> to compare the generated assembly code with the expected code
-(the code expected for <code>tst/8q.c</code> on the SPARC under Solaris is in <code>sparc/solaris/tst/8q.sbk</code>,
-etc.). If there are differences, the script executes the generated code with the input
-given in <code>tst</code> (the input for <code>tst/8q.c</code> is in <code>tst/8q.0</code>,
-etc.) and compares the output with the expected output (the expected output from <code>tst/8q.c</code>
-on the SPARC under Solaris is in <code>sparc/solaris/tst/8q.1bk</code>, etc.). The script
-also compares the diagnostics from the compiler with the expected diagnostics.</p>
-
-<p>On some systems, there may be a few differences between the generated code and the

-compilation and the least significant bits of some floating-point constants differ from
-those bits in constants generated on your system. On Linux, there may be differences
-because of differences in the header files between our system and yours. There should be
-no differences in the output from executing the test programs.</p>

-
-<p>This command builds <code>rcc</code> twice; once using the <code>rcc</code> built by <code>cc</code>
-and again using the <code>rcc</code> built by <code>lcc</code>. The resulting binaries are
-compared. They should be identical, as shown at the end of the output above. If they
-aren't, our compiler is generating incorrect code; <a HREF="#bugs">contact</a> us.</p>
-
-<p>The final version of <code>rcc</code> should also pass the test suite; that is, the
-output from</p>
-
-<blockquote>
- <pre>% make TARGET=sparc/solaris test</pre>
-</blockquote>
-
-<p>should be identical to that from the previous <code>make test</code>.</p>
-
-<p>The command &quot;<code>make clean</code>&quot; cleans up, but does not remove <code>rcc</code>,
-etc., and &quot;<code>make clobber</code>&quot; cleans up and removes <code>lcc</code>, <code>rcc</code>,
-and the other accessories. Test directories under <code>BUILDDIR</code> are <em>not</em>
-removed; you'll need to remove these by hand, e.g.,</p>
-
-<blockquote>
- <pre>% rm -fr $BUILDDIR/sparc</pre>
-</blockquote>
-
-<p>The code generators for the other targets can be tested by specifying the desired <em>target</em><code>/</code><em>os</em>
-and setting an environment variable that controls what <code>src/run.sh</code> does. For
-example, to test the MIPS code generator, type</p>
-
-<blockquote>
- <pre>% setenv REMOTEHOST noexecute
-% make TARGET=mips/irix test</pre>
-</blockquote>
-
-<p>As above, <code>src/run.sh</code> compares the MIPS code generated with what's
-expected. There should be no differences. Setting <code>REMOTEHOST</code> to <code>noexecute</code>
-suppresses the assembly and execution of the generated code. If you set <code>REMOTEHOST</code>
-to the name of a MIPS machine to which you can <code>rlogin</code>, <code>src/run.sh</code>
-will <code>rcp</code> the generated code to that machine and execute it there, if
-necessary. See <code>src/run.sh</code> for the details.</p>
-
-<p>You can use lcc as a cross compiler. The options <code>-S</code> and <code>-Wf-target=</code><em>target/os</em>
-generate assembly code for the specified target, which is any of those listed in the file <code>src/bind.c</code>.
-For example, </p>
-
-<blockquote>
- <pre>% lcc -Wf-target=mips/irix -S tst/8q.c</pre>
-</blockquote>
-
-<p>generates MIPS code for <code>tst/8q.c</code> in <code>8q.s</code>.</p>
-
-<p>lcc can also generate code for a &quot;symbolic&quot; target. This target is used
-routinely in front-end development, and its output is a printable representation of the
-input program, e.g., the dags constructed by the front end are printed, and other
-interface functions print their arguments. You can specify this target with the option <code>-Wf-target=symbolic</code>.
-For example,</p>
-
-<blockquote>
- <pre>% lcc -Wf-target=symbolic -S tst/8q.c</pre>
-</blockquote>
-
-<p>generates symbolic output for <code>tst/8q.c</code> in <code>8q.s</code>. Adding <code>-Wf-html</code>
-causes the symbolic target to emit HTML instead of plain text. Finally, the option <code>-Wf-target=null</code>
-specifies the &quot;null&quot; target for which lcc emits nothing and thus only checks the
-syntax and semantics of its input files.</p>

-<h2><a NAME="win32">Installation on Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 95/98</a></h2>
-
-<p>On Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 95/98, lcc is designed to work with Microsoft's Visual
-C++ 5.0 (VC) and Microsoft's Assembler, MASM 6.11d. It uses the VC header files,
-libraries, and command-line tools, and it uses MASM to assemble the code it generates. If
-you have MASM 6.11, make sure you <a
-HREF="http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q138/9/83.asp">upgrade to 6.11d</a>,
-because earlier 6.11 releases do not generate correct COFF object files.</p>
-
-<p>Building the distribution components from the ground up requires Microsoft's Visual
-C/C++ 5.0 compiler, Microsoft's make, <code>nmake</code>, and the standard Windows command
-interpreter. <a HREF="../makefile.nt"><code>makefile.nt</code></a> is written to use only <code>nmake</code>.
-As on UNIX systems, the compilation components are installed in a single <em>build
-directory</em>, and the top-level programs, <code>lcc.exe</code> and <code>bprint.exe</code>,
-are installed in a directory on the PATH. If the conventions used below are followed, the
-Windows-specific parts of the driver program, <code>lcc.exe</code>, can be used
-unmodified.</p>
-
-<p>Building from the source distribution on a Windows system involves the following steps.
-Below, the build directory is referred to as <code>BUILDDIR</code>, and the distribution
-is in <code>\dist\lcc\4.1</code>.
-
-<ol>
- <li>Create the build directory, perhaps using a version- and platform-specific naming
- convention as suggested in <a HREF="#unix"><em>Installation on UNIX</em></a>, and record
- the name of this directory in the <code>BUILDDIR</code> environment variable:<blockquote>
- <pre>C:\dist\lcc\4.1&gt;set BUILDDIR=\progra~1\lcc\4.1\bin
-C:\dist\lcc\4.1&gt;mkdir %BUILDDIR%</pre>
- </blockquote>
- <p>The default build, or installation, directory is <code>\Program Files\lcc\4.1\bin</code>,
- but the <code>nmake</code> commands require that you use the corresponding 8.3 file name, <code>progra~1</code>,
- instead of <code>Program Files</code>.</p>
- </li>
- <li><a HREF="../etc/win32.c"><code>etc\win32.c</code></a> is the Windows-specific part of
- the driver. It assumes that environment variable <code>include</code> gives the locations
- of the VC header files and that the linker (<code>link.exe</code>) and the assembler (<code>ml.exe</code>)
- are on the PATH. It also assumes that the macro <code>LCCDIR</code> gives the build
- directory. If necessary, revise a copy of <a HREF="../etc/win32.c"><code>etc\win32.c</code></a>
- to reflect the conventions on your computer (see <a HREF="#driver"><em>Building the Driver</em></a>),
- then build the driver, specifying the default temporary directory, if necessary:<blockquote>
- <pre>C:\dist\lcc\4.1&gt;nmake -f makefile.nt TEMPDIR=\\temp HOSTFILE=etc/win32.c lcc

- </blockquote>
- <p>If you make a copy of <code>etc\win32.c</code>, specify the path of the copy as the
- value of <code>HOSTFILE</code>. For example, if you copy <code>etc\win32.c</code> to <code>BUILDDIR</code>
- and edit it, use the command</p>
- <blockquote>
- <pre>C:\dist\lcc\4.1&gt;nmake -f makefile.nt TEMPDIR=\\temp HOSTFILE=%BUILDDIR%\win32.c lcc</pre>
- </blockquote>
- </li>
- <li>Build the preprocessor, compiler proper, library, and other accessories (see <a
- HREF="#rcc"><em>Building the Compiler</em></a>):<blockquote>
- <pre>C:\dist\lcc\4.1&gt;nmake -f makefile.nt all</pre>
- </blockquote>
- <p>This command uses the VC command-line tools <code>cl</code> and <code>lib</code> to
- build <code>bprint.exe</code>, <code>cpp.exe</code>, <code>lburg.exe</code>, <code>liblcc.lib</code>,
- <code>librcc.lib</code>, and <code>rcc.exe</code>, all in <code>BUILDDIR</code>. There may
- be some warnings, but there should be no warnings.</p>
- </li>
- <li>Create a test directory and run the test suite:<blockquote>
- <pre>C:\dist\lcc\4.1&gt;mkdir %BUILDDIR%\x86\win32\tst
-C:\dist\lcc\4.1&gt;nmake -f makefile.nt test</pre>
- </blockquote>
- <p>This command compiles each program in <a HREF="../tst">tst</a>, compares the generated
- assembly code and diagnostics with the expected assembly code and diagnostics, executes
- the program, and compares the output with the expected output (using <code>fc</code>). For
- example, when the nmake command compiles <a HREF="../tst/8q.c"><code>tst\8q.c</code></a>,
- it leaves the generated assembly code and diagnostic output in <code>%BUILDDIR%\x86\win32\tst\8q.s</code>
- and <code>%BUILDDIR%\x86\win32\tst\8q.2</code>, and it compares them with the expected
- results in <code>x86\win32\tst\8q.sbk</code>. It builds the executable program in <code>%BUILDDIR%\x86\win32\tst\8q.exe</code>,
- runs it, and redirects the output to <code>%BUILDDIR%\x86\win32\tst\8q.1</code>, which it
- compares with <code>x86\win32\tst\8q.1bk</code>. The output from this step is voluminous,
- but there should be no differences and no errors.</p>
- </li>
- <li>Run the &quot;triple&quot; test, which compiles <code>rcc</code> with itself and
- verifies the results:<blockquote>
- <pre>C:\dist\lcc\4.1&gt;nmake -f makefile.nt triple

-00000088: B4 D5</pre>

- <p>This command builds <code>rcc</code> twice; once using the <code>rcc</code> built by VC
- and again using the <code>rcc</code> built by <code>lcc</code>. The resulting binaries are

- </li>
- <li>Copy <code>lcc.exe</code> and <code>bprint.exe</code> to a directory on your PATH, e.g.,<blockquote>

- </li>
- <li>Finally, clean up:<blockquote>

- <p>This command removes the derived files in <code>BUILDDIR</code>, but does not remove <code>rcc.exe</code>,

-<h2><a NAME="bugs">Reporting Bugs</a></h2>
-
-<p>lcc is a large, complex program. We find and repair errors routinely. If you think that
-you've found a error, follow the steps below, which are adapted from the instructions in
-Chapter 1 of <cite>A Retargetable C Compiler: Design and Implementation</cite>.
-
-<ol>
- <li>If you don't have a source file that displays the error, create one. Most errors are
- exposed when programmers try to compile a program they think is valid, so you probably
- have a demonstration program already.</li>
- <li>Preprocess the source file and capture the preprocessor output. Discard the original
- code.</li>
- <li>Prune your source code until it can be pruned no more without sending the error into
- hiding. We prune most error demonstrations to fewer than five lines.</li>
- <li>Confirm that the source file displays the error with the <em>distributed</em> version of
- lcc. If you've changed lcc and the error appears only in your version, then you'll have to
- chase the error yourself, even if it turns out to be our fault, because we can't work on
- your code.</li>
- <li>Annotate your code with comments that explain why you think that lcc is wrong. If lcc
- dies with an assertion failure, please tell us where it died. If lcc crashes, please
- report the last part of the call chain if you can. If lcc is rejecting a program you think
- is valid, please tell us why you think it's valid, and include supporting page numbers in
- the ANSI Standard, Appendix A in <cite>The C Programming Language</cite>, or the
- appropriate section in <cite>C: A Reference Manual</cite>, 4th edition by S. B. Harbison
- and G. L. Steele, Jr. (Prentice Hall, 1995). If lcc silently generates incorrect code for
- some construct, please include the corrupt assembly code in the comments and flag the
- incorrect instructions if you can.</li>
- <li>Confirm that your error hasn't been fixed already. The latest version of lcc is always
- available for anonymous <code>ftp</code> from <code>ftp.cs.princeton.edu</code> in <a
- HREF="ftp://ftp.cs.princeton.edu/pub/lcc"><code>pub/lcc</code></a>. A <a
- HREF="ftp://ftp.cs.princeton.edu/pub/lcc/README"><code>README</code></a> file there gives
- acquistion details, and the <a HREF="../LOG"><code>LOG</code></a> file reports what errors
- were fixed and when they were fixed. If you report a error that's been fixed, you might
- get a canned reply.</li>
- <li>Send your program by electronic mail to <code>lcc-bugs@cs.princeton.edu</code>. Please
- send only valid C programs; put all remarks in C comments so that we can process reports
- semiautomatically.</li>
