From scratch with generation from all specifications

Before regenerating the OPTIMIX binary you need to install

• the Cocktail compiler toolbox; at least in version 9209. Please note that some include file names of the reuse-library have changed from 9209 to 9309.
• perl 5.

OPTIMIX runs in mixed-language mode only if perl and the script optimixppsplitter is available.

1.

Unpack the file optimix-<release>.tgz.
sh>> zcat optimix-<release>.tgz | tar cvf -

2.

sh>> cd optimix-<release>

3.

sh>> export OPTIMIXDIR=<optimix-source-directory>, probably there where you unpacked

4.

add $OPTIMIXDIR/bin to your path so that some commands to regenerate are available

5.

sh>> export ARCH=[i686|sun4], depending whether you install on Linux-i686 or sun4

6.

(edit Makefile to set the variable INSTALLDIR to the directory root of the tree where optimix-binary and -manpage should reside)

7.

If you want to install in the CoSy framework, uncomment the corresponding lines in Makefile.

8.

sh>> cd $OPTIMIXDIR; make INSTALLDIR=<install-directory> install

Do not regard the warnings during compilation. They should be harmless and mostly due to missing casts.

Some parts of the regeneration have are repeated automatically because some header files cyclically depend on each other.

Errors during the installation should be mailed to the author.
