INTRODUCTION OBNC is a compiler for Niklaus Wirth's programming language Oberon. It translates Oberon modules into C code. The build command (obnc) invokes both the Oberon compiler (obnc-compile) and the host C compiler and sorts out all dependencies. OBNC follows POSIX standard. This implies that it should compile and run on a POSIX compatible operating system. INSTALLATION 1. Make sure you have Boehm-Demers-Weiser's garbage collector GC installed on your system. To use the basic library modules Input and XYplane you also need SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer). On a Debian system you install these dependencies with the command apt install libgc-dev libsdl1.2-dev 2. Compile OBNC with the command ./build By default OBNC is built to be installed in /usr/local. If you want to use installation directory D instead, add `--prefix=D' to the build command. For other build options, run `./build -h'. 3. Optionally, run unit tests with the command ./test 4. Install OBNC with the command ./install To undo the installation, run `./install u'. For other installation options, run `./install -h'.
