#7 Compiling on other platforms/compilers

[Anonymous]

Hi,
FTE is great, but the compiling procedure
is not as good as it could be:
At work I often use Solaris, HPUX, Dec Alpha
and other platforms, which does not always
provide GCC.
FTE should have a configure file which allows
to compile using other plaforms/compilers.

Thanks,
Louis

Usualy it's not too hard to compile fte on other unices.
Take a look at src/fte-unix.mak and find something for your
platform. Of course you need a C++ compiler.
A while back it worked nicely on my aix box and xlc.

If I have a lot of time, I might try and write autoconf
support and submit a patch.
