The vbcc directory tree looks as follows:

‘vbcc/bin’

The executables.

‘vbcc/config’

Config files for the frontend.

‘vbcc/targets/<target>’

Subdirectory containing all files specific to a certain target (e.g. m68k-amigaos or ppc-eabi).

1.Extract the archive.

2.Set the environment variable VBCC to the vbcc directory. Depending on your shell this might be done e.g. by

VBCC=<prefix>/vbcc

or

setenv VBCC <prefix>/vbcc

3.Include <prefix>/vbcc/bin to your search-path. Depending on your shell this might be done e.g. by

PATH=<prefix>/vbcc/bin:"$PATH"

assign >NIL: vbcc: <path to vbcc directory> assign >NIL: C: vbcc:bin add

assign >NIL: vbccm68k: vbcc:targets/m68k-amigaos assign >NIL: vincludem68k: vbccm68k:include

assign >NIL: vincludem68k: <path to your AmigaOS header files> ADD ;assign >NIL: ixinclude: <path to ixemul header files, if needed> assign >NIL: vlibm68k: vbccm68k:lib

assign >NIL: vbccppc: vbcc:targets/ppc-powerup assign >NIL: vincludeppc: vbccppc:include assign >NIL: vlibppc: vbccppc:lib

assign >NIL: vincludeppc: <path to your AmigaOS header files> ADD
