[lucy-user] Building lucy for c

Hi guys,

I have a question on building lucy library.

The way that I build it is,
1- I first build clownfish compiler and runtime.
2- create a folder <Project>/clownfish
3- create 3 folders in <Project>/clownfish
bin (contains cfc)
lib (contains clownfish dynamic library)
share (contains clownfish/runtime/c/autogen/share folder)

then during the configure procedure I put
--clownfish-prefix=<Project>/clownfish.

I believe there should be another way to build Lucy. What should I enter as
--clownfish-prefix parameter?

Thanks in advance,
Serkan

Yes, since we build the C bindings with our custom build system, install 
scripts were the easiest solution to get started. My longer term plan is to 
merge the installation scripts into the generated Makefile, so `make install` 
will work.

Hi Nick,

I assumed all the structure would be resolved during Lucy's Makefile
generation. Apparently you solved this with install scripts.

Thanks for your response (as always)

This should work, but there are install scripts in the runtime/c directory 
that help you with that.

That's the correct procedure. What makes you think there should be another way?
