Installation repositories

You can find instalation repositories in SuSE Build Service:

• Linux: https://software.opensuse.org/download.html?project=home%3APerryWerneck%3Apw3270&package=lib3270
• Windows cross (32 bits): https://software.opensuse.org/download.html?project=home%3APerryWerneck%3Apw3270&package=mingw32-lib3270
• Windows cross (64 bits): https://software.opensuse.org/download.html?project=home%3APerryWerneck%3Apw3270&package=mingw64-lib3270

Building for Linux

1. Get lib3270 sources from git

   $ git clone https://github.com/PerryWerneck/lib3270.git ./lib3270

2. Install the required libraries

   • autoconf
   • automake
   • binutils
   • coreutils
   • gcc-c++
   • gettext-devel
   • m4
   • pkgconfig
   • openssl-devel
   • dbus-1-devel
   • xz

(This command can make it easy on SuSE: grep -i buildrequires rpm/lib3270.spec | cut -d: -f2 | sudo xargs zypper in )

3. Configure and build

   $ ./autogen.sh
   $ make clean
   $ make all

Building for Windows

Cross-compiling on SuSE Linux (Native or WSL)

1. First add the MinGW Repositories for your SuSE version from:

   $ sudo zypper ar obs://windows:mingw:win32 mingw32
   $ sudo zypper ar obs://windows:mingw:win64 mingw64
   $ sudo zypper ref

2. Get lib3270 sources from git

   $ git clone https://github.com/PerryWerneck/lib3270.git ./lib3270

3. Install cross compilers

   $ ./lib3270/win/install-cross.sh --all (for 32 and 64 bits)

4. Configure build

   $ ./lib3270/win/win-configure.sh --64 (for 64 bits)

5. Build

   $ cd lib3270
   $ make clean
   $ make all

Windows native with MSYS2

1. Install and update MSYS2

   • Download and install msys2 from https://www.msys2.org/ (Don't forget to update the package database and core system packages using pacman -Syu)

2. Update system path

   • Add c:\msys64\usr\bin and c:\msys64\mingw64\bin to system path

3. Install devel packages using pacman on mingw shell

   $ pacman -S --needed mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc automake autoconf make git pkg-config mingw-w64-x86_64-gettext mingw-w64-x86_64-openssl

   Afther this close and reopen mingw shell.

4. Get lib3270 sources from git using the mingw shell

   $ git clone https://github.com/PerryWerneck/lib3270.git ./lib3270

5. Build library using the mingw shell

   $ cd lib3270
   $ ./autogen.sh
   $ make all

6. Install

   $ make install

Building for macOS (using homebrew)

1. Install homebrew

2. Install dependencies

   $ brew install automake binutils coreutils curl gettext libtool openldap openssl pkgconfig

3. Use open-keg to make keg-only dependencies available during build process

   $ open-keg curl openldap openssl

4. Configure, build and install (inside the open-keg shell opened above)

   $ ./autogen.sh --prefix="$(brew --cellar)/lib3270/5.3"
   $ make all && make install
   $ brew link lib3270

Uninstalling

1. To uninstall

   $ brew unlink lib3270
   $ rm -fr "$(brew --cellar)/lib3270"
