Building a PPC NetHack 3.6 with the Metrowerks compilers


You must be familiar with the Metrowerks compiler and know how to construct
projects.  The NetHack source may come with the four pre-made projects that
are needed to build NetHack and the files it needs.  These four projects are
in :sys:mac and are MakeDefs.u, DgnComp.u, LevComp.u, and NetHack.u.  If you
do not have them, or wish to construct them yourself, see the section "Project
Contents" below.


1. Move the projects MakeDefs.u, DgnComp.u, LevComp.u, and NetHack.u to the
top level of the NetHack tree.  If you are building your own, create each
project as needed, in the order given below.

2. Create a folder "lib" in the top level.  This is where the files used by
NetHack will be deposited by MakeDefs, DgnComp, and LevComp.

3. Build and run MakeDefs.

You will be presented with a list of options.  Initially choose them all (the
default).  Later you may wish to only run a few of them.  The options are
"odemvpqrhz", each of which makes a file:

				-o creates :include:onames.h
				-p creates :include:pm.h
				-z creates :src:vis_tab.c
				-m creates :src:monstr.c
				-e creates :dat:dundeon.pdf
				-v creates :lib:options
				-d creates :lib:data
				-r creates :lib:rumors
				-h creates :lib:oracles
				-q creates :lib:quest.dat


4. If you are _not_ using DLB, follow these directions.  As of v3.3, DLB is ON
for the Mac.  Copy the following files.  You may want to change News or NHDeflts.

		a. copy ':sys:mac:MacHelp' to ':lib:MacHelp'
		b. copy ':sys:mac:News' to ':lib:News'
		c. copy ':sys:mac:NHDeflts' to ':lib:NetHack Defaults'

		d. copy	':dat:cmdhelp' to ':lib:cmdhelp'
		e. copy	':dat:help' to ':lib:help'
		f. copy ':dat:hh' to 'lib:hh'
		g. copy	':dat:history' to ':lib:history'
		h. copy	':dat:license' to ':lib:license'
		i. copy	':dat:opthelp' to ':lib:opthelp'
		j. copy	':dat:wizhelp' to ':lib:wizhelp'

5. Create an empty file, ':lib:record'

6. Build and run DgnComp.
		This will create a file "dungeon" in the lib directory.

7. Build and run LevComp.
		This will build the level files (*.lev) in the lib directory.

8. Build NetHack.
		Move NetHack in the lib directory.

Building NetHack with MetroWerks IDE 1.x (DR7-DR10, DR11 was never used)


To build NetHack, you will need to create four projects at the top level of
the NetHack directory tree.  These four projects are MakeDefs.u, DgnComp.u,
LevComp.u, and NetHack.u.  The projects don't have to end in ".u", but you
should append some form of ".XXX" to the end of the project's name to
distinguish the project from the executable that it produces.  The files
and libraries to include in these projects are listed in the "Project
Contents" section below.  You must create and run Makedefs before creating
NetHack because MakeDefs will create files used by NetHack.

Use the MacOS C/C++ template for each of the projects.  The libraries included
will be overkill for all the projects (e.g. the C++ libraries are not needed).
Add the .c and resource files as indicated below.  Unless otherwise noted, the
projects can use the default preferences:

	Font
		The tabbing on all non-mac files is 8.  All mac files have a
			tab of 4.
	PPC Processor
		All projects must have the same alignment to build a consistent
			NetHack.  To share save files with 68K, the alignments
			must match for their projects, as well.
		Turn on Global Optimization (official version is compiled
			with level 1).  If you don't turn it on, some files may
			not compile because of register overflow.  [NetHack
			only]
	PPC Project
		Set name to <MakeDefs, LevComp DgnComp, NetHack>
		Other settings [NetHack only]
			creator:			nh31
			preferred heap size:2500
			minimum heap size:	2000
			stack size:			128		[PPC only]


The SIOUX library may be replaced with console.stubs.c for the NetHack
project.

NOTE: As NetHack 3.3, you must turn on OLDROUTINENAMES -- so you can't use
the default pre-compiled header.  You should either remove it from the
preferences or insert another precompiled header that has this define off.


------------------------


Building NetHack with MetroWerks IDE 2.0.

This is for building a PowerPC version only.  This doesn't take advantage
of the IDE's subprojects.  These will be investigated later.


MakeDefs.u, DgnComp.u, LevComp.u:  Select ANSI C Console PPC.
	Settings:
		PPC Target
			+ Change File Name to MakeDefs, DgnComp, or LevComp respectively.
		C/C++ Language
			+ Turn off ANSI strict, ANSI Keywords Only, Expand Trigraphs
		PPC Processor
			+ Turn on global optimization (at least to level 1)

NetHack.u: Basic ToolBox PPC
		PPC Target
			+ Change File Name to NetHack.  Other settings
				creator:			nh31
				preferred heap size:2500
				minimum heap size:	2000
				stack size:			128		[PPC only]
		C/C++ Language
			+ Options ANSI strict, ANSI Keywords Only, Expand Trigraphs
			  are already turned off, so you don't have to do anything.
		PPC Processor
			+ Turn on global optimization (at least to level 1)

Creating projects for NetHack with MetroWerks IDE 3.3 (Pro 4)

This is what I changed from the default settings when creating a 68K version.  Some of
the settings may not be necessary.  For example, NetHack doesn't use floating point,
so I didn't have to check 8 byte doubles.  Some are interrelated.  For example, the
codegen and the Math and MSL libraries used.

For MakeDefs.u, DgnComp.u, LevComp.u: 
1. Select File>>New Project...>>MacOS>>C_C++>>Standard Console>>Std C Console 68K
2. 68K Settings:
	Target Settings:
		+ Set "Target Name" to {MakeDefs,DgnComp,LevComp}.
	68K Target:
		+ Set "File Name" to {MakeDefs,DgnComp,LevComp}.
	C/C++ Language:
		+ Check Require Function Prototypes, uncheck everything else.
		+ Clear "Prefix File".
	68K Processor:
		+ Set "Code Model" to Large.
		+ Check 68020 Codegen, 4-Byte Ints, 8-Byte Doubles, Far Data, Far Method Tables,
			Far String Constants.  Uncheck everything else.
3. Libraries 68K
	+ Remove the C++ Library (it is not needed).
	+ Change math library to MathLib68K Fa(4i_8d).Lib.
	+ Change MSL C library to MSL C.68K Fa(4i_8d).Lib.
	Note: The actual libraries used must match the CodeGen options in 68K Processor.


For NetHack.u:
1. Select File>>New Project...>>MacOS>>C_C++>>MacOS ToolBox>>MacOS ToolBox 68K
2. 68K Settings
	Target Settings:
		+ Set "Target Name" to NetHack Debug and NetHack Final.
	68K Target:
		+ Set "File Name" to NetHack Debug and NetHack Final.
		+ Set "Creator" to 'nh31'.
		+ Set "Preferred Heap Size (k)" to 2500.
		+ Set "Minimum Heap Size (k)" to 1500.
	C/C++ Language:
		+ Check Require Function Prototypes, uncheck everything else.
		+ Set "Prefix File" to LocalDefines.h.  I use this header to define
		  OLDROUTINENAMES because the pre-compiled header doesn't have it set
		  any more.  One of these days we'll fix up the code...
	68K Processor:
		+ Set "Code Model" to Large.
		+ Check 68020 Codegen, 4-Byte Ints, 8-Byte Doubles, Far Data, Far Method Tables,
			Far String Constants.  Uncheck everything else.
3. Libraries 68K
	+ Remove the C++ Library (it is not needed).
	+ Change math library to MathLib68K Fa(4i_8d).Lib.
	+ Change MSL C library to MSL C.68K Fa(4i_8d).Lib.
	Note: The actual libraries used must match the CodeGen options in 68K Processor.
	

For Recover.u:
1. Select File>>New Project...>>MacOS>>C_C++>>MacOS ToolBox>>MacOS ToolBox 68K
2. 68K Settings
	Target Settings:
		+ Set "Target Name" to Recover Debug and Recover Final.
	68K Target:
		+ Set "File Name" to Recover Debug and Recover Final.
		+ Set "Creator" to 'nhRc'.
	C/C++ Language:
		+ Check Require Function Prototypes, uncheck everything else.
		+ Set "Prefix File" to LocalDefines.h.  I use this header to define
		  OLDROUTINENAMES because the pre-compiled header doesn't have it set
		  any more.  One of these days we'll fix up the code...
	68K Processor:
		+ Set "Code Model" to Large.
		+ Check 68020 Codegen, 4-Byte Ints, 8-Byte Doubles, Far Data, Far Method Tables,
			Far String Constants.  Uncheck everything else.
3. Libraries 68K
	+ Remove the C++ Library (it is not needed).
	+ Change math library to MathLib68K Fa(4i_8d).Lib.
	+ Change MSL C library to MSL C.68K Fa(4i_8d).Lib.
	Note: The actual libraries used must match the CodeGen options in 68K Processor.
