Artistic Style Versions

astyle_x.x_linux.tar.gz is the Linux version of Artistic Style. It contains the source code, documentation, and makefiles. The Linux Version compile instructions below give information for compiling the source code.

astyle_x.x_macosx.tar.gz is the Mac OS X version of Artistic Style. It contains the source code, documentation, and a makefile. The Mac OS X Version compile instructions below give information for compiling the source code.

astyle_x.x_windows.zip is the Windows version of Artistic Style. It contains the source code, documentation, Visual C project files, and an executable. The Windows Version compile instructions below give information for compiling the source code.

Only one platform is supported in each distribution package. If you use Artistic Style on more than one platform you will need to download packages for each platform. The main difference in platforms is the build directories and the line endings. Most compilers and development packages will accept any type of line ending. The source code and documentation are the same for all distributions.

Linux Version

GCC Compiler

To compile using the GCC compiler you must have GCC (3.1 or better) installed. There is no autoconf dependency. To build the Artistic Style configurations use the makefile located in the astyle/build/gcc directory. The executables will be in the astyle/build/gcc/bin directory. To build the command line configuration enter the following:

cd astyle/build/gcc
make

To build the other astyle configurations you can enter the file name or a symbolic name. Entering "make astyle" or "make release" will build the command line configuration. Following are the symbolic names and file names (in parens) of the various configurations:

More than one configuration can be built at the same time. For example, to build all of the release configurations enter:

cd astyle/build/gcc
make release shared static

Intel Compiler

There is no autoconf dependency. The compiler release should be 2011.1.107 or higher. These procedures and the makefile will not work for earlier versions.

The Intel Compiler will not recognize a file byte order mark (BOM). ASLocalizer.cpp is UTF-8 encoding and contains a BOM which must be removed. It can be removed with many text editors and development environments. Or it may be removed from the command line with "tail --bytes=+4 ASLocalizer.cpp > ASLocalizerNEW.cpp". If it is not removed the compiler will get an error "unrecognized token" or "expected a declaration".

To compile the source there are environment variables that must be set. If this has not been done already enter: "source  <install-dir>/bin/iccvars.sh <arg>", where <install-dir> is the directory where the compiler is installed and <arg> is ia32, intel64, or moc. On an Intel x64 platform installed in the default directory the instruction would be

source /opt/intel/bin/iccvars.sh intel64

If this is not done the make will display an error message "*** No rule to make target `obj/astyle_main.o', needed by `astyle'." Instructions for the options are in the compiler documentation file "getting_started_c.pdf" in the section "Starting the Compiler from the Command Line".

To build the Artistic Style configurations use the makefile located in the astyle/build/intel directory. The executables will be in the astyle/build/intel/bin directory. To build the command line configuration enter the following:

cd astyle/build/intel
make

To build the other astyle configurations you can enter the file name or a symbolic name. The configuration names for Intel are the same as for the GCC compiler. More than one configuration can be built at the same time. For example, to build all of the debug configurations enter:

cd astyle/build/intel
make debug shareddebug staticdebug

Other Makefile Options

The following makefile options are available for GCC, Intel, and Mac. With Intel use the script file make.sh.

clean

Removes the object and executable files for all configurations.

To remove the files for all configurations:

make clean
cleanobj

Removes the object files for all configurations. The executables will not be removed.

To remove only the object files for all configurations:

make cleanobj
install

Installs the executable and documentation files. The default is /usr/bin for the executable and /usr/share/astyle for the documentation. You must have the appropriate permissions to use install.

To install the astyle to the default directories:

make install

To install astyle to a different bin directory set a value for the macro $(prefix). For example to install the executable to a user's home directory (/home/user/bin):

make prefix=$HOME install
uninstall

Uninstalls the executable and documentation. You must have the appropriate permissions to use uninstall.

To uninstall astyle from the default directories:

make uninstall

To uninstall the files from a different directory set a value for the macro $(prefix). For example to uninstall the files from a user's home directory (/home/user):

 make prefix=$HOME uninstall

NOTE: The uninstall option will NOT remove the .astylerc files from the users home directories. The files must be removed individually for each user.

Mac OS X Version

There is no autoconf dependency. To build the Artistic Style configurations use the makefile located in the astyle/build/mac directory. The executables will be in the astyle/build/mac/bin directory.

To build the command line configuration:

cd astyle/build/mac
make

To build the other astyle configurations you can enter the file name or a symbolic name. The configurations for Mac are the same as for the Linux GCC compiler. More than one configuration can be built at the same time. For example, to build all of the release configurations enter:

cd astyle/build/mac
make release shared static

The Other Makefile Options are the same as for the Linux compilers.

Windows Version

Precompiled Executable

In addition to the source files, the Windows distribution package contains an Artistic Style Win32 executable (AStyle.exe). If you prefer to compile the executable yourself follow the following instructions.

Visual C++ Compiler

There are configuration and project files for 4 versions of the Visual C compiler; build/vs2005 (Visual Studio 2005), build/vs2008 (Visual Studio 2008) and build/vs2010 (Visual Studio 2010). Open the AStyle configuration file in the appropriate "build" directory. All project files have Release and Debug configurations. Release file output will be in the "bin" directory. Debug file output will be in the "debug" directory. The following solution files are available.

Other Compilers

To use other compilers a project file must be built using a development environment.

Compiler Options

No macro definitions are required to compile the executable. To compile as a static or shared (dynamic) library define the macro ASTYLE_LIB. To compile a Java shared (dynamic) library define the macro ASTYLE_JNI. Then use the appropriate compiler and linker options to compile the static or shared library. Add debug options to compile the debug versions.

Artistic Style is a small program and it is best to optimize for speed. The debug configurations are not usually optimized. To optimize for speed in the release configurations use the macro NDEBUG to remove asserts. Use an option that allows inline function expansion. Runtime Type Information (RTTI) is NOT needed. Exceptions are not used. Use whole program optimization if your compiler supports it. There may be other options you can use depending on the compiler.
