You need the following tools installed to compile ProBoard.
- Borland C++ 3.1
Other versions of Borland C++ may work, however Borland C++ 5.0 has known issues with overlays which may prevent them from working.
Please make sure that the \BORLANDC\BIN
directory is in your path,
as this is the easiest way. Otherwise you need to make using the fully
qualified path like: "\BORLANDC\BIN\MAKE.EXE"
These examples assume Proboard source is in \PB
and Borland C++'s bin
director is in your PATH.
Once you have fetched the source using git clone
you should build it
as the following:
cd \PB
make all
That's it, you should now have a ProBoard.exe
in your \PB
directory.
A proboard distribution is what you zip up to share with others as a new release, you can generate these easily using the borland make commnad.
To create a new distribution, you run the following:
cd \PB
make dist
if you want to clean up everything (delete the derived objects) you can run the following command:
make clean
