     2 There are  several ways  to build the  FreeType library,  depending on

     3 your system and the level of  customization you need.  Here is a short

     4 overview of the documentation available:

     7 I. Normal installation and upgrades

     8 ===================================

    10   1. Unix Systems (including Mac OS X, Cygwin, and MSys on Windows)

    12     Please read `INSTALL.UNIX' to install or upgrade FreeType  2 on  a

    13     Unix system.   Note  that  you  *need*  GNU  Make   for  automatic

    14     compilation,  since other make tools won't work (this includes BSD

    15     Make).

    17     GNU Make VERSION 3.80 OR NEWER IS NEEDED!

    20   2. On VMS with the `mms' build tool

    22     See `INSTALL.VMS' for installation instructions on this platform.

    25   3. Other systems using GNU Make

    27     On non-Unix platforms,  it is possible to build  the library using

    28     GNU Make  utility.  Note that  *NO OTHER MAKE TOOL  WILL WORK*[1]!

    29     This  methods supports  several  compilers on  Windows, OS/2,  and

    30     BeOS, including MinGW, Visual C++, Borland C++, and more.

    32     Instructions are provided in the file `INSTALL.GNU'.

    35   4. With an IDE Project File (e.g., for Visual Studio or CodeWarrior)

    37     We provide a  small number of `project files'  for various IDEs to

    38     automatically build  the library as  well.  Note that  these files

    39     are  not supported  and only  sporadically maintained  by FreeType

    40     developers, so don't expect them to work in each release.

    42     To find them, have a  look at the content of the `builds/<system>'

    43     directory, where <system> stands for your OS or environment.

    46   5. Using cmake

    48     See the top-level `CMakeLists.txt' file for more information.

    51   6. From you own IDE, or own Makefiles

    53     If  you  want  to  create   your  own  project  file,  follow  the

    54     instructions   given  in  the   `INSTALL.ANY'  document   of  this

    55     directory.

    58 II. Custom builds of the library

    59 ================================

    61   Customizing the compilation  of FreeType is easy, and  allows you to

    62   select only the components of  the font engine that you really need.

    63   For more details read the file `CUSTOMIZE'.

    66 ----------------------------------------------------------------------

    68 [1] make++, a make tool written in Perl, has sufficient support of GNU

    69     make extensions to build FreeType.  See

    71       http://makepp.sourceforge.net

    73     for more information; you need version 1.19 or newer, and you must

    74     pass option `--norc-substitution'.
