Open Source Perl Build Tools

This is NASM - the famous Netwide Assembler. THIS PAGE IS OUT OF DATE; we no longer use any Sourceforge services other than mailing lists. Get the current versions from http://www.nasm.us/.

Perl-Dist-Strawberry is tooling to build and package releases for Perl on Windows. Strawberry Perl is a binary distribution of Perl for the Windows operating system, including a bundled compiler and pre-installed modules.

Makepp, a build program which has a number of features that allow for reliable builds and simpler build files, is a drop-in replacement for GNU make. It supports almost all of the syntax that GNU make supports, and can be used with makefiles produced by utilities such as automake. It is called makepp (or make++) because it was designed with special support for C++, which has since been extended to other languages like Swig or embedded SQL. Some features that makepp adds to make are: greatly improved handling of builds that involve multiple makefiles (recursive make is no longer necessary); automatic scanning for include files; rebuild triggered if build command changes; checksum-based signature methods for reliable builds, smart enough to ignore whitespace or comment changes; extensibility through Perl programming (within your makefile); repositories (automatically importing files from another tree); build caches (not recompiling identically what a user of the same cache already did

tmake is a tool which auto-creates Makefile, IDE project files (and possibly even autoconf files !) from a very simple template format. The majority of tmake was written by trolltech (makers of qt), and this version on sourceforge has some enhancement

The LAMPAS project is a combination of common Open Source tools that provides a unified system from where administrators, developers and other parties can manage a large application cluster. The underlying platform is LAMP based.

Mingw-portage contain program `minmerge' and collection of scripts to build some packages. Together they allow you to automatically build any supported software packages for 32-bit mingw or 64-bit mingw-w64 and indeed toolchain. Requirements: MSYS & corresponding toolchain.

Android Applications Manager is a third party software to manage applications from your Android mobile phone to your computer and from your computer to your mobile.

Overview of pre-defined compiler macros for standards, compilers, operating systems, and hardware architectures.

ABIcheck is a tool for checking an application's compliance with a library's defined Application Binary Interface (ABI). It relies on ABI definition information contained in the library. Example definitions are given for GNOME and glibc.

The DevTools project is an open-source (BSD-licensed) set of development tools, including a set of shared gmake-style utility makefiles, the TLM version-control wrapper, and various other little utility C++ programs and Perl and Python scripts.

FleXML reads a DTD describing the format of XML documents; it may be specified as a URI to the DTD on the web. From this FleXML produces a validating XML processor with an interface to support XML applications.

A WYSIWYG Conditional Compilation Preprocessor for Java, Perl, C, C++, Basic, PowerShell, C#, Javascript, and other programming languages. Many C and C++ developers rely heavily on the C preprocessor, and lament the lack of a preprocessor in Java, scripting languages, and other programming languages. The principal objection to a preprocessor is that it makes one's code difficult to read. This is indeed true for the C preprocessor. It is sometimes difficult to determine which lines of code are active and which are not. Being WYSIWYG, the PreprocessorWizard multi-language WYSIWIG preprocessor resolves the problem of code being difficult to read and allows one preprocessing syntax for all languages. It is easy to use as a standalone application and it can be easily integrated with almost any IDE.

The script helps commiting changes on several branches in CVS by creating a bunch of CVS commands which the user normally would have to create himself.

The bootstrapper program is designed to work along with autoconf, automake and libtool. It will scan a project's configure.in and generate a custom made bootstrap script which will then be used to create a configure script. It will also be able to clean

The Pdoc library can be used to easily write automated documentation tools. The library features tools to extract/decompose text such as source code (Perl for now) and tools to create/compose formatted text such as HTML format.

This project has a lively SVN repository for build recipes, over 1000 F/OSS softwares are available. The tool "pkgbuild" is for building packages on Solaris 11/OpenIndiana from RPM-like spec files. The tool also runs on OmniOS. If you want, you can create new style IPS packages and old style SVR4 packages for Solaris 10. The tool is not updated frequently, but the following "build recipes" for pkgbuild is updated every day. For a few hundred build-recipes see the sub-project "spec-files-extra" or "SFE". We already have stacks of e.g. multimedia players mplyer/vlc or postfix/dovecot/cyrus-sasl/spamfiltering. But there is so much more to be added! Volunteers to the build-recipes are always welcome. Please ask on the mailing list or irc://irc.freenode.org/#pkgbuild Please proceed now with the link below and remember to visit "SFE" on the left and browse through the available packages list in SVN. Or go for one of the binary repositories with ready-to-use IPS packages.

A-line is an MPW/Perl-based build system for the development of Mac software which uses simple configuration files to automate construction, packaging, and distribution of software projects such as applications and code resources.

ACDK - Artefaktur Component Development Kit - is a platform independent C++-framework similar to Java or C#/.NET for generating distributed and scriptable components and applications.

A collection of build tools, scripts, and AIX packages to build open source packages in AIX's native package format (installp aka bff).

Abuild is no longer being maintained. In the years since its creation, better options have emerged. Even so.... Abuild is a scalable build system that applies Object-Oriented principles to the build problem. It is powerful and flexible and helps ensure build integrity while simplifying the user's view of the build. A thorough user's manual is included.

Actor provides a web-enabled, self-service user interface to run your scripts. You run a desktop application to setup your scripts in Actor. Your users get a web site where they access your scripts in a controlled, fail-safe manner.

AdmIRC is a webmin module for irc server administration. It provides a config interface and advanced security and linking automatism support. Currently UnrealIRCD 3.2 and the services Anope and Epona are supported. Subprojects: irc newsbot and java tools

ApacheBuilder builds Apache (with optional modules of Mod_SSL and Mod_Perl) from sources, prompting for config params of location, etc. When done, it starts Apache and verifies it all works ok.

Apache Toolbox provides a means to easily compile Apache with over 63 3rd parts modules and options.

Allows to build libs/apps from scratch, downloading source; allows to install at non-default non-central locations.
