An existing Firebird install is required.
The FIREBIRD env var must be set.
MSVC v6.0 is the recommended compiler.
|

 |
MSVC6 needs the 'dinkum' patchs applied. This is tedious and error prone, but necessary. There is a readme that explains what, where , and how. |
  |   |
 |
Firebird gnu32 build tools need to be on the path. |
  |   |
 |
CVS checkout for 1.5.3 via console:
set FB_CVS=:pserver:anonymous@firebird.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/firebird
cvs -z3 -d %FB_CVS% checkout -P -r R1_5_3 firebird2
or branch tag:
cvs -z3 -d %FB_CVS% checkout -P -r RB1_5_Release firebird2

 |
Build sequence requires the following commands:
clean_all.bat
prepare.bat
parse.bat
make_boot.bat
make_all.bat
|
  |   |
 |
A batch file to automate this process is here and we can see a html version here |
