To make and install GF (Updated for version 2.4).
1. Unpack GF and go to the source directory (the place where this
INSTALL file is - so you have probably done this already!)
tar xvfz GF-2.4.tgz
cd GF-2.4/src
3. Make sure you have GHC (Glasgow Haskell Compiler), version 6.4 or later.
In Windows, you also need Cygwin.
ghc --version
4. If you are building the darcs version, run autoconf (in src/):
autoconf
5. Run configure
./configure
If you want to install the GF somewhere other than /usr/local, use
the --prefix flag. E.g.
./configure --prefix=/usr
To compile on Chalmers Solaris systems using VCS, use this configuration:
./configure CPPFLAGS="`lib__readline -I` `lib__ncurses -I`" LDFLAGS="`lib__readline -l` `lib__ncurses -l`"
If you experience problems with readline, try:
./configure --with-readline=no
You may need to run "make clean" after ./configure when you change the
readline setting.
6. Compile with GNU make:
make
or
gmake
(if your system has a proprietary make)
The binary is sent to the file GF/bin/gf .
7. Move files to their right places:
make install
8. To run GF, the following environment variables must be set:
GFHOME the GF directory, e.g., "$HOME/project/GF-2.4"
GF_LIB_PATH the GF library directory, e.g,, "$HOME/project/GF-2.4/lib"
(Usually, you do this in ~/.login, if your shell is any *csh,
or in ~/.profile, if your shell is either of sh, ksh, zsh or bash.
Afterwards, you have to start a login shell to have the settings available.)
9. For a quick test:
Start gf, load a grammar and parse a string:
cd $GFHOME/examples/tutorial/food
gf FoodIta.gf FoodEng.gf
-- when gf has started and shows the prompt >:
> parse "this cheese is very very Italian" | tree_bank
-- this is the response from GF:
Is (This Cheese) (Very (Very Italian))
this cheese is very very Italian
questo formaggio è molto molto italiano
10. If you want to run the Java GUI, go back to $GFHOME/src directory
and also do
make install-java
Test the GUI with some grammars:
cd ../examples/letter
gf <mkLetter.gfs
jgf Letter.gfcm
When the window opens, push the Random button.
