Introduction to TCL
The TCL package contains the Tool Command Language, a robust general-purpose scripting language. It was installed as part of the temporary system in CLFS for use with test suites, but was not reinstalled as part of the permanent system.
Dependencies
Non-Multilib
Compile the package:
cd unix && ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-threads && make
Install the package
make install && make install-private-headers && ln -v -sf tclsh8.4 /usr/bin/tclsh
Command Explanations
--enable-threads: This switch forces the package to build with thread support.
make install-private-headers: This command is used to install the Tcl library interface headers used by other packages if they link to the Tcl library.
ln -v -sf tclsh8.4 /usr/bin/tclsh: This command is used to create a compatibility symbolic link to the tclsh8.4 file as many packages expect a file named tclsh.
Multilib
32Bit
Compile the package:
cd unix &&
CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr \
--enable-threads &&
make
Install the package
make install
N32
Compile the package:
cd unix &&
CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib32 \
--enable-threads &&
make
Install the package
make install
64Bit
Compile the package:
cd unix &&
CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64 \
--enable-threads &&
make
Install the package
make install && make install-private-headers && ln -v -sf tclsh8.4 /usr/bin/tclsh
Contents
| Installed Programs: | tclsh and tclsh8.4 |
|---|---|
| Installed Libraries: | libtcl.so and libtclstub8.4.a |
| Installed Directories: | /usr/lib/tcl8.4 |
Short Descriptions
| tclsh | is a symlink to the tclsh8.4 program. |
|---|---|
| tclsh8.4 | is a simple shell containing the Tcl interpreter. |
| libtcl.so | contains the API functions required by Tcl. |
