autobuild for Linux, FreeBSD, OS X

I had some free time and thought it would be nice to have autobuild scripts for eqemu.
Ok, here it is! This will make the build process easier. For example to enable bots, simply configure with

Code:

configure --enable-bots --prefix=/path/to/install

thats it.

The build system is tested with
- Mac OS X 10.5.6 (Intel Mac)
- Debian GNU/Linux 5.0.1 32bit (Pentium 4)
- Debian GNU/Linux 5.0.1 64bit (Intel Quad Core)

Ok, some features:
- detect build system OS(Linux/FreeBSD/Darwin), architectur (32/64bit)
- detect mysql
- detect perl
- set install path
- installs all needed files!
- build options (Bots/Debug/LogLevel/Compile Warnings)

not yet implemented:
- detect libperl

here is a overview of the configure options:

Code:

--prefix	path to install

--enable-debug          Turn on debugging
--enable-warnings       enable compile warnings
--enable-bots           Turn on bots

--with-loglevel         Set loglevel (default: 5)

	// 0 <= Quiet mode Errors to file Status and Normal ignored
	// 1 >= Status and Normal to console, Errors to file
	// 2 >= Status, Normal, and Error  to console and logfile
	// 3 >= Lite debug
	// 4 >= Medium debug
	// 5 >= Debug release (Anything higher is not recommended for regular use)
	// 6 == (Reserved for special builds) Login  opcode debug All packets dumped
	// 7 == (Reserved for special builds) Chat Opcode debug All packets dumped
	// 8 == (Reserved for special builds) World opcode debug All packets dumped
	// 9 == (Reserved for special builds) Zone Opcode debug All packets dumped
	// 10 >= More than you ever wanted to know

Ok, now here is how it works:

cd into the EQEmulator Source directory

get the build system

Code:

wget http://quadfreunde-ergoldsbach.de/eqemu/eqbuild.tgz

unpack

Code:

tar xvzf eqbuild.tgz

run prepare.sh, this will remove all previous makefiles and create missing files.

Code:

sh prepare.sh

run

Code:

autoreconf -fi

create a directory for the build process

Code:

mkdir build

cd into the build directory

Code:

cd build

run configure

Code:

../configure --prefix=/path/to/install

This will build eqemu with the default options.

To enable bots configure with

Code:

../configure --enable-bots --prefix=/path/to/install

To set the loglevel to 3 "Status, Normal, and Error to console and logfile" do

Code:

../configure --with-loglevel=3 --prefix=/path/to/install

to compile simply do

Code:

make

to install everything

Code:

make install

Have fun!
