running and compiling in windows dos based

 

step 1 : installing software  list

GNUstep System Required       link:  0.23.0

GNUstep Core     Required       link:  0.23.1

i will be telling about the basic and minimum step required for compiling and running ur objective-c program

first of all

download  the  software and install the in the directory specified 

the default directory is c:\GNUstep

 

run the shell from start>all program >

 

this will run a dos shell  prompt the the shell will only  run linux or unix  shell command only.

 

this will be our window environment for development objective –c program

step 2 writing a simple program

$ vi programname.m

option for vi i  insert, esq+shift+: open the command prompt  s=save and q =quit u can use both or any one combination

OR

write a program in ascii test editor  and save that program under the directory C:\GNUstep\home\”username folder”\

*********************************************************

// First program example

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

int main (int argc, const char * argv[])
{

NSAutoreleasePool * pool;
pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];

NSLog (@"Programming is fun!");

[pool drain];

return 0;

}

********************************************************

step 3 for compiling there is some step to follow

create a

filename GNUmakefile. with these for line

 

 

*********************************************************
include $(GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES)/common.make
TOOL_NAME = LogTest
LogTest_OBJC_FILES = source.m
include $(GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES)/tool.make

*********************************************************

save the file in present program directory

for compiling run command

$ make

 

for running compiled program

$ ./obj/LogTest
