*** 596,598 **** --- 596,622 ---- Tom Poindexter 2003-12-17 ==== + + **[ ULTRIX/VAX 4.4 ]** + + I successfully got Sqlite 2.8.13 to compile under ULTRIX/VAX 4.4 (4.x should work fine, not sure about earlier versions). + + SQLite would NOT compile with VAX C, I had to install GCC and GNU make. There are binary packages out there for GCC 3.0.4 and GNU MAKE floating around on the net. + + After setting the CC and CPP environment variables to the location of GCC (in my case it was /usr/freeware/gnu-tools/vax/bin/gcc) and the preprocessor, SQLite compiled out of the box, just run configure, then GNU make (stock BSD make will NOT work!) and it will chew on it for a couple hours (hey, it's still a VAX), and in theory you should have working Ultrix SQLite. + + NOTE: Remember, Ultrix has no support for shared libraries, if you want to use SQLite in an application, you have to compile sqlite in as a static library. This goes for TCL as well, you have to recompile TCL with libsqlite.la and libtclsqlite.la compiled smack inline. + + No, I don't have any benchmarks unfortunately. It would be funny to benchmark SQLite against the University Ingres QUEL DBMS that ships with Ultrix on the UNSUPPORTED software distribution on the CD/TK50 tape/whatever else Ultrix shipped on. + + My configuration: + + DEC VAXserver 3100 m30 w/ 16MB/RAM, 1.6GB disk space. + ULTRIX 4.4/VAX + GCC 3.0.4 + GNU MAKE + + Have fun. + + Kevin D.
