Things needed for compilation.
SDL
The Simple DirectMedia Library available at http://www.libsdl.org
Curses
(optional)
If you want to enable the debugger you need a curses library.
ncurses should be installed on just about every unix distro.
For win32 get pdcurses at http://pdcurses.sourceforge.net
Libpng
Needed for the screenshots. (optional)
For win32 get libpng from http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/gnuwin32
Zlib
Needed by libpng. (optional)
For win32 get libz (rename to zlib) from http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/gnuwin32
SDL_Net
For modem/ipx support(optional). Get it from http://www.libsdl.org
SDL_Sound
For compressed audio on diskimages. (optional)
This is for cue/bin cdrom images with compressed (mp3/ogg) audio tracks.
ALSA_Headers
(optional)
for Alsa support under linux. Part of the linux kernel sources
If you want compile from the CVS under a unix system, you'll also need
automake (>=1.6), autoconf(>=2.50). Should be available at http://www.gnu.org
For building on unix systems.
If you are building from the cvs run ./autogen.sh first before doing the following.
1. ./configure
2. make
In step 1 you could add the following switches:
--enable-debug
enables the internal debugger. --enable-debug=heavy enables even more
debug options. Dosbox should then be run from a xterm and when the sdl-
window is active press pause to enter the debugger.
--disable-fpu
Will disable the emulated fpu. Although the fpu emulation code isn't
finished and isn't entirely accurate it's advised to leave it on.
--enable-core-inline
enables some memory increasing inlines. This greatly increases
compiletime for maybe a increase in speed.
--disable-dynamic-x86
disables the dynamic cpu core. Although it's unstable it can greatly
improve the speed of dosbox on x86 hosts.
--disable-fpu-x86
disables the assembly fpu core. Although relatively new the x86 fpu
core has more accuracy then the regular fpu core.
Check the src subdir for the binary.
NOTE: If capslock and numlock appear to be broken. open
src/ints/bios_keyboard.cpp and go to line 30 and read there how to fix it.
Build instructions for VC++6
Don't use VC++ 6:it creates faulty code in core_normal.cpp
