This chapter contains step-by-step instructions on how to configure
|
|
and build the TIFF software distribution. The software is most
|
|
easily built on a UNIX system, but with a little bit of work it can
|
|
easily be built and used on other non-UNIX platforms.

|
<h2>Building on a UNIX System</h2>
|
|
To build the software on a UNIX system you need to first run the
|
|
configure shell script that is located in the top level of the
|
|
source directory. This script probes the target system for
|
|
necessary tools and functions and constructs a build environment in
|
|
which the software may be compiled. Once configuration is done, you
|
|
simply run <tt>make</tt> (or <tt>gmake</tt>) to build the software
|
|
and then <tt>make install</tt> to do the installation; for example:
|
|
<div style="margin-left: 2em">
|
|
<pre>
|
|
hyla% <b>cd ./tiff-4.0.0</b>
|
|
hyla% <b>./configure</b>
|
|
<i>...lots of messages...</i>
|
|
hyla% <b>make</b>
|
|
<i>...lots of messages...</i>
|
|
hyla% <b>make check</b>
|
|
<i>...lots of messages...</i>
|
|
hyla# <b>make install</b>
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
Supplied makefiles are dependent on a <tt>make</tt> utility and a C
|
|
(and optionally a C++ compiler), so you will need these tools.
|
|
<p>In general, the software is designed such that the following
|
|
should be ``<i>make-able</i>'' in each directory:</p>
|
|
<div style="margin-left: 2em">
|
|
<pre>
|
|
make [all] build stuff
|
|
make check run the test suite
|
|
make install build&install stuff
|
|
make clean remove .o files, executables and cruft
|
|
make distclean remove everything, that can be recreated
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
Note that after running "<tt>make distclean</tt>" the
|
|
<tt>configure</tt> script must be run again to create the Makefiles
|
|
and other make-related files. <a name="BuildTrees" id=
|
|
"BuildTrees"></a>
|
|
<hr width="65%" align="right">
|
|
<h3>Build Trees</h3>
|
|
There are two schemes for configuring and building the software. If
|
|
you intend to build the software for only one target system, you
|
|
can configure the software so that it is built in the same
|
|
directories as the source code.
|
|
<div style="margin-left: 2em">
|
|
<pre>
|
|
hyla% <b>gzip -dc tiff-4.0.0.tar.gz | tar -xf -</b>
|
|
hyla% <b>cd ./tiff-4.0.0</b>
|
|
hyla% <b>./configure</b>
|
|
hyla% <b>make</b>
|
|
hyla% <b>make check</b>
|
|
hyla% <b>make install</b>
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
<p>Otherwise, you can configure a build tree that is parallel to
|
|
the source tree hierarchy (or in some completely different place)
|
|
but which contains only configured files and files created during
|
|
the build procedure.</p>
|
|
<div style="margin-left: 2em">
|
|
<pre>
|
|
hyla% <b>gzip -dc tiff-4.0.0.tar.gz | tar -xf -</b>
|
|
hyla% <b>mkdir tiff-4.0.0-build</b>
|
|
hyla% <b>cd ./tiff-4.0.0-build</b>
|
|
hyla% <b>../tiff-4.0.0/configure</b>
|
|
hyla% <b>make</b>
|
|
hyla% <b>make check</b>
|
|
hyla% <b>make install</b>
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
This second scheme is useful for:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>building multiple targets from a single source tree</li>
|
|
<li>building from a read-only source tree (e.g. if you receive the
|
|
distribution on CD-ROM)</li>
|
|
<li>sharing the source files via a network, but building on
|
|
multiple systems</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|

|

<hr width="65%" align="right">
|
|
<h3>Configuration Options</h3>
|
|
The configuration process is critical to the proper compilation,
|
|
installation, and operation of the software. The configure script
|
|
runs a series of tests to decide whether or not the target system
|
|
supports required functionality and, if it does not, whether it can
|
|
emulate or workaround the missing functions. This procedure is
|
|
fairly complicated and, due to the nonstandard nature of most UNIX
|
|
systems, prone to error. The first time that you configure the
|
|
software for use you should check the output from the configure
|
|
script and look for anything that does not make sense for your
|
|
system.
|
|
<p>A second function of the configure script is to set the default
|
|
configuration parameters for the software. Of particular note are
|
|
the directories where the software is to be installed. By default
|
|
the software is installed in the <b>/usr/local</b> hierarchy. To
|
|
change this behaviour the appropriate parameters can be specified
|
|
on the command line to configure. Run <b>./configure --help</b> to
|
|
get a full list of possible options. Standard installation related
|
|
options are shown below.</p>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
<tt>
|
|
Installation directories:
|
|
--prefix=PREFIX install architecture-independent files in PREFIX
|
|
[/usr/local]
|
|
--exec-prefix=EPREFIX install architecture-dependent files in EPREFIX
|
|
[PREFIX]
|
|
|
|
By default, `make install' will install all the files in
|
|
`/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/lib' etc. You can specify
|
|
an installation prefix other than `/usr/local' using `--prefix',
|
|
for instance `--prefix=$HOME'.
|
|
|
|
For better control, use the options below.
|
|
|
|
Fine tuning of the installation directories:
|
|
--bindir=DIR user executables [EPREFIX/bin]
|
|
--sbindir=DIR system admin executables [EPREFIX/sbin]
|
|
--libexecdir=DIR program executables [EPREFIX/libexec]
|
|
--sysconfdir=DIR read-only single-machine data [PREFIX/etc]
|
|
--sharedstatedir=DIR modifiable architecture-independent data [PREFIX/com]
|
|
--localstatedir=DIR modifiable single-machine data [PREFIX/var]
|
|
--libdir=DIR object code libraries [EPREFIX/lib]
|
|
--includedir=DIR C header files [PREFIX/include]
|
|
--oldincludedir=DIR C header files for non-gcc [/usr/include]
|
|
--datarootdir=DIR read-only arch.-independent data root [PREFIX/share]
|
|
--datadir=DIR read-only architecture-independent data [DATAROOTDIR]
|
|
--localedir=DIR locale-dependent data [DATAROOTDIR/locale]

|
--mandir=DIR man documentation [DATAROOTDIR/man]
|
|
--docdir=DIR documentation root [DATAROOTDIR/doc/tiff]
|
|
--htmldir=DIR html documentation [DOCDIR]
|
|
|
|
Program names:
|
|
--program-prefix=PREFIX prepend PREFIX to installed program names
|
|
--program-suffix=SUFFIX append SUFFIX to installed program names
|
|
--program-transform-name=PROGRAM run sed PROGRAM on installed program names

<h3>Configuring Optional Packages/Support</h3>
|
|
The TIFF software comes with several packages that are installed
|
|
only as needed, or only if specifically configured at the time the
|
|
configure script is run. Packages can be configured via the
|
|
<b>configure</b> script commandline parameters.
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt><i>Static/Shared Objects Support</i></dt>
|
|
<dd><tt>--enable-shared[=PKGS] build shared
|
|
libraries [default=yes]<br>
|
|
--enable-static[=PKGS] build static
|
|
libraries [default=yes]</tt>
|
|
<p>These options control whether or not to configure the software
|
|
to build a shared and static binaries for the TIFF library. Use of
|
|
shared libraries can significantly reduce the disk space needed for
|
|
users of the TIFF software. If shared libarries are not used then
|
|
the code is statically linked into each application that uses it.
|
|
By default both types of binaries is configured.</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<tt>--enable-rpath Enable
|
|
runtime linker paths (-R libtool option)</tt></p>
|
|
<p>Add library directories (see other options below) to the TIFF
|
|
library run-time linker path.</p>
|
|
<p><tt>--enable-ld-version-script Enable linker version
|
|
script (default is disabled)</tt></p>
|
|
<p>Add shared library symbol versioning on ELF-based systems (e.g.
|
|
Linux and FreeBSD) which use the GNU linker. This is needed if
|
|
several major versions of libtiff might be loaded at once into the
|
|
same program.</p>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><i>JPEG Support</i></dt>
|
|
<dd><tt>--disable-jpeg disable IJG JPEG
|
|
library usage (required for JPEG compression, enabled by default)
|
|
--with-jpeg-include-dir=DIR location of IJG
|
|
JPEG library headers
|
|
--with-jpeg-lib-dir=DIR location of IJG JPEG
|
|
library binary)</tt></dd>
|
|
<dd>The <tt>JPEG</tt> package enables support for the handling of
|
|
TIFF images with JPEG-encoded data. Support for JPEG-encoded data
|
|
requires the Independent JPEG Group (IJG) <tt>libjpeg</tt>
|
|
distribution; this software is available at <a href=
|
|
"http://www.ijg.org/">http://www.ijg.org/</a>. <b>configure</b>
|
|
script automatically tries to search for a working IJG JPEG
|
|
installation. If it fails to find library, JPEG support will be
|
|
automatically disabled.If you want specify the exact paths to
|
|
library binary and headers, use above switches for that.</dd>
|
|
<dt><i>ZIP Support</i></dt>
|
|
<dd>The <tt>ZIP</tt> support enables support for the handling of
|
|
TIFF images with deflate-encoded data. Support for deflate-encoded
|
|
data requires the freely available <tt>zlib</tt> distribution
|
|
written by Jean-loup Gailly and Mark Adler; this software is
|
|
available at <a href=
|
|
"http://www.zlib.org/">http://www.zlib.org/</a>. If ZIP support is
|
|
enabled the <tt>DIRS_LIBINC</tt> and <tt>DIR_GZLIB</tt> parameters
|
|
should also be set (see below). By default this package is not
|
|
configured.</dd>

<h2>Building the Software under Windows 2000/XP/7/8/10 with MS
|
|
VC++</h2>
|
|
With Microsoft Visual C++ installed, and properly configured for
|
|
commandline use (you will likely need to source VCVARS32.BAT in
|
|
AUTOEXEC.bAT or somewhere similar) you should be able to use the
|
|
provided <tt>makefile.vc</tt>.
|
|
<p>The source package is delivered using Unix line termination
|
|
conventions, which work with MSVC but do not work with Windows
|
|
'notepad'. If you use unzip from the <a href=
|
|
"http://www.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/">Info-Zip</a> package, you
|
|
can extract the files using Windows normal line termination
|
|
conventions with a command similar to:</p>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
unzip -aa -a tiff-4.0.0.zip
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>By default the nmake-based libtiff build does not depend on any
|
|
additional libraries. Normally libtiff should be built with at least
|
|
JPEG and ZIP support so that it can open JPEG and ZIP-compressed TIFF
|
|
files. In order to add additional libraries (e.g. libjpeg, zlib,
|
|
jbigkit), build those libraries according to their own particular
|
|
build instructions, and then edit 'nmake.opt' (using a capable
|
|
plain-text editor) to enable use of the libraries, including
|
|
specifying where the libraries are installed. It is also necessary to
|
|
edit libtiff/tiffconf.vc.h to enable the related configuration defines
|
|
(<em>JPEG_SUPPORT</em>, <em>OJPEG_SUPPORT</em>, <em>PIXARLOG_SUPPORT</em>,
|
|
<em>ZIP_SUPPORT</em>), or to disable features which are normally
|
|
included by default. Ignore the comment at the top of the
|
|
libtiff/tiffconf.vc.h file which says that it has no influence on the
|
|
build, because the statement is not true for Windows. Please note that
|
|
the nmake build copies tiffconf.vc.h to tiffconf.h, and copies
|
|
tif_config.vc.h to tif_config.h, overwriting any files which may be
|
|
present. Likewise, the 'nmake clean' step removes those files.</p>
|
|
<p>To build using the provided makefile.vc you may use:</p>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
C:\tiff-4.0.0> nmake /f makefile.vc clean
|
|
C:\tiff-4.0.0> nmake /f makefile.vc
|
|
|
|
or (the hard way)
|
|
|
|
C:\tiff-4.0.0> cd port
|
|
C:\tiff-4.0.0\port> nmake /f makefile.vc clean
|
|
C:\tiff-4.0.0\port> nmake /f makefile.vc
|
|
C:\tiff-4.0.0> cd ../libtiff
|
|
C:\tiff-4.0.0\libtiff> nmake /f makefile.vc clean
|
|
C:\tiff-4.0.0\libtiff> nmake /f makefile.vc
|
|
C:\tiff-4.0.0\libtiff> cd ..\tools
|
|
C:\tiff-4.0.0\tools> nmake /f makefile.vc clean
|
|
C:\tiff-4.0.0\tools> nmake /f makefile.vc
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>This will build the library
|
|
file <tt>libtiff\libtiff\libtiff.lib</tt>.</p>
|
|
<p>The makefile also builds a DLL (libtiff.dll) with an associated
|
|
import library (libtiff_i.lib). Any builds using libtiff will need to
|
|
include the LIBTIFF\LIBTIFF directory in the include path.</p>
|
|
<p>The <tt>libtiff\tools\makefile.vc</tt> should build .exe's for
|
|
all the standard TIFF tool programs.</p>

<h2>Building the Software on a VMS System</h2>
|
|
The VMS port was done by Karsten Spang (<a href=
|
|
"mailto:krs@kampsax.dk">krs@kampsax.dk</a>), who also "sort of"
|
|
maintains it. The VMS specific files are not in the main
|
|
directories. Instead they are placed under
|
|
<tt>[.CONTRIB.VMS...]</tt> in the distribution tree. Installation:
|
|
It is assumed that you have unpacked the tar file into a VMS
|
|
directory tree, in this text called DISK:[TIFF].
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Move the VMS specific files to their proper directories.
|
|
<pre>
|
|
$ SET DEFAULT DISK:[TIFF.CONTRIB.VMS]
|
|
$ RENAME [.LIBTIFF]*.* [-.-.LIBTIFF]
|
|
$ RENAME [.TOOLS]*.* [-.-.TOOLS]
|
|
</pre></li>
|
|
<li>Compile the library.
|
|
<pre>
|
|
$ SET DEFAULT DISK:[TIFF.LIBTIFF]
|
|
$ @MAKEVMS
|
|
</pre></li>
|
|
<li>Compile the tools.
|
|
<pre>
|
|
$ SET DEFAULT DISK:[TIFF.TOOLS]
|
|
$ @MAKEVMS

<li>Define the programs.

|
You will want to add these lines to your <tt>LOGIN.COM</tt> file,
|
|
after changing the name of the directory that you have used on your
|
|
machine.
|
|
<p>This release has been tested on OpenVMS/VAX 5.5-2, using VAX C
|
|
3.2. A previous release was tested under OpenVMS/AXP ?.? using DEC
|
|
C ?.?, it is believed that this release as well works on AXP. The
|
|
code contains some GNU C specific things. This does *not* imply,
|
|
however, that the VAX/GCC configuration has been tested, *it has
|
|
not*.</p>
|
|
<p>The command procedures (<tt>MAKEVMS.COM</tt>) for building the
|
|
library and tools, is believed to choose the correct options for
|
|
the VAX and AXP cases automatically.</p>
|
|
<p>On the AXP, IEEE floating point is used by default. If you want
|
|
VAX floating point, remove the <tt>/FLOAT=IEEE_FLOAT</tt>
|
|
qualifier, and change <tt>HAVE_IEEEFP=1</tt> to
|
|
<tt>HAVE_IEEEFP=0</tt> in the <tt>MAKEVMS.COM</tt> files in both
|
|
the <b>libtiff</b> and <b>tools</b> directories.</p>
|
|
<h3>Compiling your own program on a VMS system:</h3>
|
|
When compiling a source file in which you <tt>"#include
|
|
<tiffio.h>"</tt>, use the following command
|
|
<pre>
|
|
$ CC/INCLUDE=DISK:[TIFF.LIBTIFF]
|
|
</pre>
|
|
This ensures that the header file is found. On the AXP, also add
|
|
<tt>/FLOAT=IEEE_FLOAT</tt> (if used when building the library).
|
|
<h3>Linking your own program to the TIFF library on a VMS
|
|
system:</h3>
|
|
You can link to the library in two ways: Either using the shareable
|
|
library, or using the object library. On the VAX these
|
|
possibilities are:
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Using the shareable TIFF library.
|
|
<pre>
|
|
$ LINK MY_PROGRAM,DISK:[TIFF.LIBTIFF]TIFF/OPTIONS,SYS$INPUT:/OPTIONS
|
|
SYS$SHARE:VAXCRTL/SHAREABLE
|
|
</pre></li>
|
|
<li>Using the TIFF object library.
|
|
<pre>
|
|
$ LINK MY_PROGRAM, -
|
|
DISK:[TIFF.LIBTIFF]TIFF/LIBRARY/INCLUDE=(TIF_FAX3SM,TIF_CODEC), -
|
|
SYS$INPUT:/OPTIONS
|
|
SYS$SHARE:VAXCRTL/SHAREABLE
|
|
</pre></li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
On AXP (and possibly also using DEC C on VAX) the corresponding
|
|
commands are
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Using the shareable TIFF library.
|
|
<pre>
|
|
$ LINK MY_PROGRAM,DISK:[TIFF.LIBTIFF]TIFF/OPTIONS
|
|
</pre></li>
|
|
<li>Using the TIFF object library.
|
|
<pre>
|
|
$ LINK MY_PROGRAM,DISK:[TIFF.LIBTIFF]TIFF/LIBRARY
|
|
</pre></li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
Method 1 uses the shortest link time and smallest <tt>.EXE</tt>
|
|
files, but it requires that <tt>TIFFSHR</tt> is defined as above at
|
|
link time and <strong>at run time</strong>. Using the compilation
|
|
procedure above, the tools are linked in this way.
|
|
<p>Method 2 gives somewhat longer link time and larger
|
|
<tt>.EXE</tt> files, but does not require <tt>TIFFSHR</tt> to be
|
|
defined. This method is recommended if you want to run your program
|
|
on another machine, and for some reason don't want to have the
|
|
library on that machine. If you plan to have more than one program
|
|
(including the tools) on the machine, it is recommended that you
|
|
copy the library to the other machine and use method 1.</p>

<h2>Building the Software on Other Systems</h2>
|
|
This section contains information that might be useful if you are
|
|
working on a non-UNIX system that is not directly supported. All
|
|
library-related files described below are located in the
|
|
<b>libtiff</b> directory.
|
|
<p>The library requires two files that are generated
|
|
<i>on-the-fly</i>. The file <b>tif_fax3sm.c</b> has the state
|
|
tables for the Group 3 and Group 4 decoders. This file is generated
|
|
by the <tt>mkg3states</tt> program on a UNIX system; for
|
|
example,</p>
|
|
<div style="margin-left: 2em">
|
|
<pre>
|
|
<tt>
|
|
cd libtiff
|
|
cc -o mkg3states mkg3states.c
|
|
rm -f tif_fax3sm.c
|
|
./mkg3states -c const tif_fax3sm.c
|
|
</tt>
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
The <tt>-c</tt> option can be used to control whether or not the
|
|
resutling tables are generated with a <tt>const</tt> declaration.
|
|
The <tt>-s</tt> option can be used to specify a C storage class for
|
|
the table declarations. The <tt>-b</tt> option can be used to force
|
|
data values to be explicitly bracketed with ``{}'' (apparently
|
|
needed for some MS-Windows compilers); otherwise the structures are
|
|
emitted in as compact a format as possible. Consult the source code
|
|
for this program if you have questions.
|
|
<p>The second file required to build the library, <b>version.h</b>,
|
|
contains the version information returned by the
|
|
<tt>TIFFGetVersion</tt> routine. This file is built on most systems
|
|
using the <tt>mkversion</tt> program and the contents of the
|
|
<tt>VERSION</tt> and <tt>tiff.alpha</tt> files; for example,</p>
|
|
<div style="margin-left: 2em">
|
|
<pre>
|
|
cd libtiff
|
|
cc -o mkversion mkversion.c
|
|
rm -f version.h
|
|
./mkversion -v ../VERSION -a ../dist/tiff.alpha version.h
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
<p>Otherwise, when building the library on a non-UNIX system be
|
|
sure to consult the files <b>tiffcomp.h</b> and <b>tiffconf.h</b>.
|
|
The former contains system compatibility definitions while the
|
|
latter is provided so that the software configuration can be
|
|
controlled on systems that do not support the make facility for
|
|
building the software.</p>
|
|
<p>Systems without a 32-bit compiler may not be able to handle some
|
|
of the codecs in the library; especially the Group 3 and 4 decoder.
|
|
If you encounter problems try disabling support for a particular
|
|
codec; consult the <a href=
|
|
"internals.html#Config">documentation</a>.</p>
|
|
<p>Programs in the tools directory are written to assume an ANSI C
|
|
compilation environment. There may be a few POSIX'isms as well. The
|
|
code in the <b>port</b> directory is provided to emulate routines
|
|
that may be missing on some systems. On UNIX systems the
|
|
<tt>configure</tt> script automatically figures out which routines
|
|
are not present on a system and enables the use of the equivalent
|
|
emulation routines from the <b>port</b> directory. It may be
|
|
necessary to manually do this work on a non-UNIX system. <a name=

<h2>Checking out the Software</h2>
|
|
<p>Assuming you have working versions of <tt>tiffgt</tt> and
|
|
<tt>tiffsv</tt>, you can just use them to view any of the sample
|
|
images available for testing (see the <a href="images.html">section
|
|
on obtaining the test images</a>). Otherwise, you can do a cursory
|
|
check of the library with the <tt>tiffcp</tt> and <tt>tiffcmp</tt>
|
|
programs. For example,</p>
|
|
<div style="margin-left: 2em">
|
|
<pre>
|
|
tiffcp -lzw cramps.tif x.tif
|
|
tiffcmp cramps.tif x.tif
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
<p>(<tt>tiffcmp</tt> should be silent if the files compare
|
|
correctly). <a name="TOC" id="TOC"></a></p>
