Environment Variables
The final stage for installing the PRC-Tools development kit is to configure
a number of environment variables so the operating system knows where
everything is. In Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000, you do this inside the
Environment Variables dialog in Systems Properties.
System Variables
MAKE_MODE=UNIX
CYGNUS_HOME=C:\PROGRA~1\CYGNUS\CYGWIN~1\H-I586~1
PRCTOOLS_HOME=C:\PROGRA~1\GNUPAL~1\prc-tools\H-I586~1
PATH=...;%CYGNUS_HOME%\BIN;C:\BIN;%PRCTOOLS_HOME%\BIN
NOTE: The "..." characters means that you should put the
additional text in the existing PATH definition.
Desktop
The development environment is your own choice - and there are a lot of
options to choose from (falch.net et al). If you are not interested in an
IDE, and want to opt out for the basic "unix" style installation - then
read on.
Create a shortcut on your desktop that when started, points to your
"development" directory on your machine (ie: C:\Projects).
Double click on the shortcut icon.
Test the following commands:
$ pwd
/Projects
$ gcc --version
egcs-2.91.57
$ m68k-palmos-gcc --version
2.95.2-kgpd
$ ls
$
If you dont get any errors, chances are everything is installed correctly.
Consult the FAQ if
you are unable to get these commands to work.
