NAME

INSTALL - How to install Kx

SYNOPSIS

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

DESCRIPTION

This is experimental at the moment. Mark developed it on MacOSX and Linux, x86. And now my (Stephan's) development platform is Linux (x86).

You need to first get a copy of c.o from http://kx.com/q/c/ for your architecture. Make libkdb.a from c.o for easy linking like below in the same path as the package source.

ar -r libkdb.a c.o

or libtool -static -o libkdb.a c.o

For make test to actually do anything, you need to have a 'q' process running on port 2222.

q -p 2222
