Building XZ Utils on Windows is supported under the following

|

|
- There is experimental CMake support. As it is, it should be

|
good enough to build static liblzma with Visual Studio.
|
||||||
|
Building liblzma.dll might work too (if it doesn't, it should
|
||||||
|
be fixed). The CMake support may work with MinGW or MinGW-w64.
|
||||||
|
Read the comment in the beginning of CMakeLists.txt before
|
||||||
|
running CMake!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- There are Visual Studio project files under the "windows"
|
||||||
|
directory. See windows/INSTALL-MSVC.txt. In the future the
|
||||||
|
project files will be removed when CMake support is good
|
||||||
|
enough. Thus, please test the CMake version and help fix
|
||||||
|
possible issues.

GNU Autotools based build hasn't been tried on DOS. If you try, I

1.2.9. z/OS
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To build XZ Utils on z/OS UNIX System Services using xlc, pass
|
||||||
|
these options to the configure script: CC='xlc -qhaltonmsg=CCN3296'
|
||||||
|
CPPFLAS='-D_UNIX03_THREADS -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=600'. The first makes
|
||||||
|
xlc throw an error if a header file is missing, which is required
|
||||||
|
to make the tests in configure work. The CPPFLAGS are needed to
|
||||||
|
get pthread support (some other CPPFLAGS may work too; if there
|
||||||
|
are problems, try -D_UNIX95_THREADS instead of -D_UNIX03_THREADS).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
test_scripts.sh in "make check" will fail even if the scripts
|
||||||
|
actually work because the test data includes compressed files
|
||||||
|
with US-ASCII text.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
No other tests should fail. If test_files.sh fails, check that
|
||||||
|
the included .xz test files weren't affected by EBCDIC conversion.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
XZ Utils doesn't have code to detect the amount of physical RAM and
|
||||||
|
number of CPU cores on z/OS.
