5 Instructions to build Mesa for XFree86/OS2:
6
7 You need a recent version of XFree86 (3.3x or above) installed including
8 the supplied programming libraries and tools as well as EMX 0.9c (and above).
9
10 Beginning after beta 7 there's again support for creating DLLs.
11 The details are handled in "mklib-emx.cmd" a small REXX script.
12 By now it does ensure compatiblity by using the function names as
13 entry points instead of ordinals. This will cost performance and
14 might be fixed in a future patch.
15
16 We switched to the usual build method
17 (based on Makefile and make-config) beginning with Mesa 3.0 beta 5.
18 To use most of the standard files (including shell scripts) you should
19 have a un*x shell (sh) in path.

21 To actually build the (static) libraries and demos type
22 make os2
