always be used in other builtin.mk files.
+ In the USE_BUILTIN.* == "yes" case, set BUILDLINK_LIBNAME.* to the
corresponding BUILTIN_LIBNAME.* value so that BUILDLINK_LIBNAME.*
can always be used in other buildlink3.mk files.
that need basic termlib functionality, i.e. tgetent(), tgoto(),
tputs(), etc. Together with the termlib.builtin.mk file, they will
use either a built-in termcap library, a built-in X/Open "enhanced"
curses library, or ncurses to provide these functions.
+ Add BUILDLINK_LIBNAME.* definitions to the various curses buildlink3.mk
and builtin.mk files that give the "base" library name of the curses
library, e.g. curses, ncurses, etc. These are used by the termlib
files to set BUILDLINK_LIBNAME.termlib.
that include curses.buildlink3.mk. Generally, the rule is not to set
CURSES_DEFAULT unless it's to set it to "ncurses" or "pdcurses".
# Example mk.conf settings and their results.
# Use the system curses.
PREFER_NATIVE= yes # default value
CURSES_DEFAULT= curses # default value
# Use system "ncurses" if it's available, otherwise use devel/ncurses
# from pkgsrc.
#
PREFER_NATIVE= yes # default value
CURSES_DEFAULT= ncurses
# Use devel/ncurses from pkgsrc.
PREFER_PKGSRC= yes
# Use devel/pdcurses from pkgsrc.
PREFER_PKGSRC= yes
CURSES_DEFAULT= pdcurses
# This causes a package build failure because there is no pkgsrc
# curses.
#
PREFER_PKGSRC= yes
CURSES_DEFAULT= curses
used by packages that need curses. From curses.buildlink3.mk:
CURSES_DEFAULT
This value represents the type of curses we wish to use on the
system. Setting this to "curses" means that the system curses
implementation is fine.
Possible: curses, ncurses, pdcurses
+ Move all code to detect a built-in version of curses into a
curses.builtin.mk file.
+ Add code to {n,pd}curses/buildlink3.mk so make the headers and
libraries usable as <curses.h> and -lcurses if _PKG_USE_CURSES is
defined. _PKG_USE_CURSES is only defined by curses.buildlink3.mk.
+ Improve the detection of native ncurses in ncurses/builtin.mk and
allow headers and libraries to be usable as <ncurses.h> and -lncurses.
