6 This file contains instructions for compiling Vim on Openvms. | |
7 If you already have an executable version of Vim, you don't need this. | |
8 | |
9 If you skip settings described here, then you will get the default Vim | |
10 behavior as it is documented, which should be fine for most users. | |
11 | |
12 The file "feature.h" can be edited to match your preferences, but this files | |
13 does not describe possibilities hidden in feature.h acrobatics, however | |
14 parameters from MAKE_VMS.MMS actively uses and sets up parameters in relation | |
15 with feature.h | |
16 | |
17 More information and case analysis you can found in os_vms.txt | |

31 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
32 1. Download files | |
33 | |
34 1.1. Visit the Vim ftp site (see ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/MIRRORS) | |
35 and obtain the following three files: | |
36 | |
37 unix/vim-X.X-src.tar.gz | |
38 unix/vim-X.X-rt.tar.gz | |
39 extra/vim-X.X-extra.tar.gz | |
40 | |
41 where X.X is the version number. | |
42 | |
43 1.2. Expand the three archives. | |
44 | |
45 1.3. Apply patches if they exist. (Patch files are found in the ftp | |
46 site in the "patches" directory.) | |
47 | |
48 1.4. You will need either the DECSET mms utility or the freely available clone | |
49 of it called mmk (VMS has no make utility in the standard distribution). | |
50 You can download mmk from http://www.openvms.digital.com/freeware/MMK/ | |
51 | |
52 1.5. If you want to have Perl, Python or Tcl support in Vim you will need VMS | |
53 distributions for them as well. | |
54 | |
55 1.6 If you want to have GTK executable, you need to have properly installed | |
56 GTK libraries. | |
57 | |
58 NOTE: procedure in chapter 1 describes source code preparation from multi OS | |
1188 | 59 code, however it is available OpenVMS optimized (and tested) source code from: |
7 | 60 ftp://ftp.polarhome.com/pub/vim/source/vms/ |
412 | 61 (http://www.polarhome.com/vim/files/source/vms/) |
7 | 62 |
63 Current OpenVMS source code as .zip or .tar.gz file is possible to download | |
64 from CVS mirror ftp://ftp.polarhome.com/pub/cvs/SOURCE/ | |
412 | 65 (http://www.polarhome.com/cvs/SOURCE/) |
7 | 66 |
67 2. Configuration | |
68 | |
69 2.1. Edit vim-X.X/src/feature.h for your preference. (You can skip | |
70 this, then you will get the default behavior as is documented, | |
71 which should be fine for most people.) | |
72 | |
73 For example, if you want to add the MULTI_BYTE feature, turn on | |
74 #define MULTI_BYTE | |
75 | |

167 Default : Uncommented | |
168 | |
169 You can edit the *_INC and *_LIB qualifiers, but it is really | |
170 not recommended for beginners. | |
171 | |
172 3. Compilation DECC | |
173 | |
174 3.1. If you have MSS on your system, the command | |
175 | |
176 mms /descrip=Make_vms.mms | |
177 | |
178 will start building your own customized version of Vim. | |
179 The adequate command for mmk is: | |
180 | |
181 mmk /descrip=Make_vms.mms | |
182 | |
183 NOTE: Because of empty /auto/config.h (needed for Unix configure) build | |
184 will fail with very strange messages. Therefore before building, it is | |
185 recommended to make one clean up, to prepare everything for OpenVMS | |
186 development. The command is: | |
187 | |
188 mms /descrip=Make_vms.mms clean | |
189 | |
190 4. Compilation VAXC | |
191 | |
192 4.1. VAXC compiler is not fully ANSI C compatible in pre-processor directives | |
193 semantics, therefore you have to use a converter program what will do the | |
194 lion part of the job. | |
195 | |
196 @os_vms_fix.com *.c *.h <.proto>*.pro | |
197 | |
198 more information can be found in os_vms_fix.com file itself. | |
199 | |
200 NOTE: even if os_vms_fix.com will fix all pre-processor directives it will | |
201 leave singe (long) line directives. You have to fix them manually. | |
202 Known problematic files are option.h and option.c | |
203 | |
204 4.2. After the conversion you can continue building as it has been described | |
205 above. | |
206 | |
207 5. CTAGS, XXD | |
208 | |
209 5.1. MMS_VIM.EXE is building together with VIM.EXE, but for CTAGS.EXE and | |
210 XXD.EXE you should change to subdirectory <.CTAGS> or <.XXD> and build | |
211 them separately. | |
212 | |
213 5.2. In these directories you can found one make file for VMS as well. | |
214 Please read the detailed build instructions in the related *.MMS file. | |
215 | |
216 6. Deployment | |
217 | |
218 6.1. Copy over all executables to the deployment directory. | |
219 | |
220 6.2. Vim uses a special directory structure to hold the document and runtime | |
221 files: | |
222 | |
223 vim (or wherever) | |
224 |-- doc | |
225 |-- syntax | |
226 vimrc (system rc files) | |
227 gvimrc | |
228 | |
229 6.3 Define logicals VIM | |
230 | |
231 define/nolog VIM device:[leading-path-here.vim] | |
232 | |
233 to get vim.exe to find its document, filetype, and syntax files. | |
234 | |
235 Now, if you are lucky you should have one own built, customized and | |
236 working Vim. | |
237 | |

242 To be able to build external GUI or language support you have to enable |
7 | 243 related feature in MAKE_VMS.MMS file. Usually it need some extra tuning |
244 around include files, shared libraries etc. | |
245 | |
246 Please note, that leading "," are valuable for MMS/MMK syntax. | |
247 | |
248 MAKE_VMS.MMS uses defines as described below: | |
249 | |
250 7.1.1 feature_DEF = ,"SOME_FEATURE" | |
251 | |
252 Submits definition to compiler preprocessor to enable code blocks | |
253 defined with | |
254 #ifdef SOME_FEATURE | |
255 {some code here} | |
256 #endif | |
257 | |
258 Example: TCL_DEF = ,"FEAT_TCL" | |
259 | |
260 | |
261 7.1.2 feature_SRC = code1.c code2.c | |
262 | |
263 Defines source code related with particular feature. | |
264 Example: TCL_SRC = if_tcl.c | |
265 | |
266 7.1.3 feature_OBJ = code1.obj code2.obj | |
267 | |
268 Lists objects created from source codes listed in feature_SRC | |
269 Example: PERL_OBJ = if_perlsfio.obj if_perl.obj | |
270 | |
271 7.1.4 feature_LIB = ,OS_VMS_TCL.OPT/OPT | |
272 | |
273 Defines the libraries that have to be used for build. | |
274 If it is an OPT file then MAKE_VMS.MMS creates OPT files | |
275 in gen_feature procedure. | |
276 | |
277 Example: | |
278 PERL_LIB = ,OS_VMS_PERL.OPT/OPT | |
279 | |
280 .IFDEF VIM_PERL | |
281 perl_env : | |
282 -@ write sys$output "creating OS_VMS_PERL.OPT file." | |
283 -@ open/write opt_file OS_VMS_PERL.OPT | |
284 -@ write opt_file "PERLSHR /share" | |
285 -@ close opt_file | |
286 .ELSE | |
287 perl_env : | |
288 -@ ! | |
289 .ENDIF | |
290 | |
291 | |
292 7.1.5 feature_INC = ,dka0:[tcl80.generic] | |
293 | |
294 Defines the directory where the necessary include files are. | |
295 Example: TCL_INC = ,dka0:[tcl80.generic] | |
296 | |
297 7.2 GTK | |
298 | |
299 To build VIM with GTK you have to install GTK on your OpenVMS. | |
412 | 300 So far it works just on Alpha and IA64. More information at: |
7 | 301 http://www.openvms.compaq.com/openvms/products/ips/gtk.html |
302 | |
303 You need also the OpenVMS Porting Library: | |
304 http://www.openvms.compaq.com/openvms/products/ips/porting.html | |
305 | |
856 | 306 Source code for GTK and porting library that is used to build |
701 | 307 VMS executables at polarhome.com are at |
308 http://www.polarhome.com/vim/files/source/vms/ | |
309 | |
7 | 310 Enable GTK in make_vms.mms file with GTK = YES |
311 Define GTK_ROOT that points to your GTK root directory. | |
312 | |
701 | 313 You will need to edit GTKDIR variable in order to point |
314 to GTK header files and libraries. | |
315 | |
316 GTK_DIR = ALPHA$DKA0:[GTK128.] | |
317 | |
318 ".]" at the end is very important. | |
319 | |
7 | 320 Build it as normally. |
321 | |
322 Used sharable images are: | |
323 gtk_root:[glib]libglib.exe /share,- | |
324 gtk_root:[glib.gmodule]libgmodule.exe /share,- | |
325 gtk_root:[gtk.gdk]libgdk.exe /share,- | |
326 gtk_root:[gtk.gtk]libgtk.exe /share | |
327 | |
328 During runtime it is suggested to have all these files installed and | |
1188 | 329 copied to SYS$LIBRARY: to be able to use it without problems. |
7 | 330 Also VMS_JACKETS.EXE from OpenVMS Porting Library. |
331 | |
332 Please note, that GTK uses /name=(as_is,short)/float=ieee/ieee=denorm | |
4352 | 333 compiler directives that is not compatible with "standard" VMS usage, |
7 | 334 therefore other external features might fail as PERL, PYTHON and TCL |
335 support. | |
336 | |
337 7.3 PERL | |
338 | |
339 You have to install OpenVMS perl package from: | |
340 http://www.openvms.compaq.com/openvms/products/ips/apache/csws_perl_relnotes.html or build on your own from sources downloaded from http://www.perl.org | |
341 | |
342 You need defined PERLSHR logical that points to PERL shareable image | |
343 (or you can just copy over to SYS$LIBRARY:) | |
344 | |
345 Enable Perl feature at make_vms.mms with VIM_PERL = YES | |
346 | |
347 Edit PERL_INC = to point to perl includes directory where is extern.h | |
348 | |
349 Build as usually. | |
350 | |
351 7.4 PYTHON | |
352 | |
353 You have to install an OpenVMS python package. | |
354 Set up the normal Python work environment. | |
355 | |
356 You have to have defined PYTHON_INCLUDE and PYTHON_OLB logicals. | |
357 PYTHON_INCLUDE should point to Python include files where for ex: | |
358 python.h is located. | |
359 Enable Python feature at make_vms.mms with VIM_PYTHON = YES | |
360 | |
361 Build as usually. | |
362 | |
363 7.5 TCL | |
364 | |
365 You have to install an OpenVMS TCL package. | |
366 Set up the normal TCL work environment. | |
367 | |
368 You have to have defined TCLSHR logical that points to shareable image. | |
369 | |
370 Enable TCL feature at make_vms.mms with VIM_TCL = YES | |
371 | |
372 Edit TCL_INC = to point to TCL includes directory where is tcl.h | |
373 | |
374 Build as usually. | |
375 | |
376 8. Notes | |
377 | |
378 8.1. New Compaq C compiler | |
379 | |
380 If you are using Compaq C compiler V6.2 or newer, Informational messages | |
381 of the type QUESTCOMPARE will be displayed. You should ignore those | |
382 messages ; they are generated only because some test comparisons are done | |
383 with variables which type vary depending on the OS. Under VMS, those are | |
384 "unsigned" and the compiler issue a message whenever the comparison is | |
385 done with '<=' to 0. However, the code is correct and will behave as | |
386 expected. | |
387 ( Jerome Lauret <JLAURET@mail.chem.sunysb.edu> Vim 6.0n ) | |
388 NOTE: from version 6.0ad Vim code has been reviewed and these warnings | |
389 have been corrected. | |
