Install PNaCl SDK

Configure to be built using PNaCl's Clang toolchain

https://developer.chrome.com/native-client/devguide/devcycle/building

Use gnu++11 as standard library, because newlib relies on GNU extensions.

./configure --with-charset=utf8 CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11 -O2" CFLAGS="-O2" CXX="pnacl-clang++"

// This might help: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/native-client-discuss/E5lECqm7tx8 http://magnushoff.com/pnacl.html

We will run all our make and configure in the root directory of the mecab-emscripten repository: https://github.com/fasiha/mecab-emscripten

Add Pepper headers:

./configure --with-charset=utf8 CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11 -O2" CFLAGS="-O2" CPPFLAGS="-I/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/include" CXX="pnacl-clang++"

Add Pepper library path for linking:

./configure --with-charset=utf8 CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11 -O2" CFLAGS="-O2" CPPFLAGS="-I/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/include" CXX="pnacl-clang++" LDFLAGS="-L/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/lib/pnacl/Release"

Specify libraries to pass to linker:

Don't use -lppapi; doesn't seem to exist at the moment? I used lppapi_simple at a guess.

./configure --with-charset=utf8 CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11 -O2" CFLAGS="-O2" CPPFLAGS="-I/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/include" CXX="pnacl-clang++" LDFLAGS="-L/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/lib/pnacl/Release" LIBS="-lppapi_cpp -lppapi_simple"

We don't need shared anyway (I hope?), so get rid of Makefile switches that clang doesn't understand

./configure --with-charset=utf8 CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11 -O2" CFLAGS="-O2" CPPFLAGS="-I/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/include" CXX="pnacl-clang++" LDFLAGS="-L/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/lib/pnacl/Release" LIBS="-lppapi_cpp -lppapi_simple" --disable-shared

// libless just in case useful:
./configure --with-charset=utf8 CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11 -O2" CFLAGS="-O2" CXX="pnacl-clang++" --disable-shared

Default AR and ARFLAGS (Clang, cru) might work, but you need to add support to PNaCl for BSD long filenames.

AR_FLAGS="-crfu"

AR="pnacl-ar"

Mecab's configure needs to tell LLVM archiver to use f modifier, to avoid BSD long filenames Err, f flag doesn't work as advertised. Guess we just use the default AR and AR_FLAGS. Additionally can't figure out how to use pnacl-ar for archiving. So I will use the default clang. Instead of avoiding BSD long filename, I added support to artools.py in PNaCl:

# BSD style long names (totally supported, baby)
    if self.name.startswith('#1/'):
      parse_name_length = re.search(r"#1/(\d+)", self.name)
      name_length_bytes_dec = parse_name_length.group(1)
      # how many bytes to read after header
      name_length_bytes = int(name_length_bytes_dec)

      self.file_contents_bytes = self.size-name_length_bytes
      self.size = self.file_contents_bytes

      file_data = fp.read(name_length_bytes)
      self.name = file_data
      self.is_bsd_long_name = True

Uh, move this code to be ABOVE the check for self.is_bsd4_symtab = (self.name == '__.SYMDEF SORTED').

On Mac OS X, neeed to comment out all references to the bind_at_load linker switch (this is in libtool and ltmain.sh), since PNaCl toolchain doesn't recognise it:

	# Don't allow lazy linking, it breaks C++ global constructors
	# But is supposedly fixed on 10.4 or later (yay!).
	# if test "$tagname" = CXX ; then
	#   case ${MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET-10.0} in
	#     10.[0123])
	#       func_append compile_command " ${wl}-bind_at_load"
	#       func_append finalize_command " ${wl}-bind_at_load"
	#     ;;
	#   esac
	# fi

Download & extract PNaCl iconv lib from naclports Continuous Build server (for example http://gsdview.appspot.com/naclports/builds/pepper_41/trunk-253-g089940f/packages/libiconv_1.14_pnacl.tar.bz2) Add pnacl iconv lib to lib path and include path:

./configure --with-charset=utf8 CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11 -O2" CFLAGS="-O2" CPPFLAGS="-I/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/include -I/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/include" CXX="pnacl-clang++" LDFLAGS="-L/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/lib/pnacl/Release -L/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/lib" LIBS="-lppapi_cpp -lppapi_simple" --disable-shared

Use PNaCl AR:

./configure --with-charset=utf8 CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11 -O2" CFLAGS="-O2" CPPFLAGS="-I/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/include -I/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/include" CXX="pnacl-clang++" LDFLAGS="-L/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/lib/pnacl/Release -L/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/lib" LIBS="-lppapi_cpp -lppapi_simple" --disable-shared AR_FLAGS="-crfu" AR="pnacl-ar"

Use PNaCl ranlib:

./configure --with-charset=utf8 CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11 -O2" CFLAGS="-O2" CPPFLAGS="-I/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/include -I/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/include" CXX="pnacl-clang++" LDFLAGS="-L/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/lib/pnacl/Release -L/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/lib" LIBS="-lppapi_cpp -lppapi_simple" --disable-shared AR_FLAGS="-crfu" AR="pnacl-ar" RANLIB="pnacl-ranlib"

Now having problems with multiply-defined symbols at link-time.

Get rid of stdc++ lib from ./configure:

# LIBS="-lstdc++  $LIBS"

…

# if test "x$ac_cv_lib_stdcpp_main" = xyes; then :
#   MECAB_LIBS="-lstdc++"
# fi

Try ppapi lib (fails ./configure check of whether your C compiler works):

Use PNaCl ranlib:

./configure --with-charset=utf8 CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11 -O2" CFLAGS="-O2" CPPFLAGS="-I/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/include -I/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/include" CXX="pnacl-clang++" LDFLAGS="-L/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/lib/pnacl/Release -L/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/lib" LIBS="-lppapi_cpp -lppapi_simple" --disable-shared AR_FLAGS="-crfu" AR="pnacl-ar" RANLIB="pnacl-ranlib"

Use PNaCl-clang for C, set cross-compiling to maybe:

./configure --with-charset=utf8 CC="pnacl-clang" CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11 -O2" CFLAGS="-O2" CPPFLAGS="-I/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/include -I/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/include" CXX="pnacl-clang++" LDFLAGS="-L/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/lib/pnacl/Release -L/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/lib" LIBS="-lppapi_cpp -lppapi -lppapi_simple" --disable-shared AR_FLAGS="-crfu" AR="pnacl-ar" RANLIB="pnacl-ranlib" cross_compiling=maybe

Maybe try without iconv, since it is perhaps failing to find this dependency at runtime?

--without-libiconv-prefix

./configure --with-charset=utf8 CC="pnacl-clang" CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11 -O2" CFLAGS="-O2" CPPFLAGS="-I/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/include -I/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/include" CXX="pnacl-clang++" LDFLAGS="-L/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/lib/pnacl/Release -L/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/lib" LIBS="-lppapi_cpp -lppapi -lppapi_simple" --disable-shared AR_FLAGS="-crfu" AR="pnacl-ar" RANLIB="pnacl-ranlib" cross_compiling=maybe --without-libiconv-prefix

And also maybe put ipadic/ folder next to it?

Copy LIBS from tutorial: -lppapi_simple -lppapi -lppapi_cpp -lnacl_io

./configure --with-charset=utf8 CC="pnacl-clang" CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11 -O2" CFLAGS="-O2" CPPFLAGS="-I/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/include -I/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/include" CXX="pnacl-clang++" LDFLAGS="-L/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/lib/pnacl/Release -L/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/lib" LIBS="-lppapi_simple -lppapi -lppapi_cpp -lnacl_io" --disable-shared AR_FLAGS="-crfu" AR="pnacl-ar" RANLIB="pnacl-ranlib" cross_compiling=maybe --without-libiconv-prefix

Provide pthread (from tutorial):

./configure --with-charset=utf8 CC="pnacl-clang" CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11 -O2" CFLAGS="-O2" CPPFLAGS="-I/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/include -I/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/include" CXX="pnacl-clang++" LDFLAGS="-L/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/lib/pnacl/Release -L/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/lib -pthread" LIBS="-lppapi_simple -lppapi -lppapi_cpp -lnacl_io" --disable-shared AR_FLAGS="-crfu" AR="pnacl-ar" RANLIB="pnacl-ranlib" cross_compiling=maybe --without-libiconv-prefix

make also:

./configure --with-charset=utf8 CC="pnacl-clang" CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11 -O2" CFLAGS="-O2" CPPFLAGS="-I/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/include -I/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/include" CXX="pnacl-clang++" LDFLAGS="-L/Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/lib/pnacl/Release -L/Users/birch/git/mecab-emscripten/lib/libiconv_1.14_pnacl/payload/lib -pthread" LIBS="-lppapi_simple -lppapi -lppapi_cpp -lnacl_io" --disable-shared AR_FLAGS="-crfu" AR="pnacl-ar" RANLIB="pnacl-ranlib" cross_compiling=maybe --without-libiconv-prefix && make clean && make && pnacl-finalize src/mecab -o /Users/birch/Documents/nacl_sdk/pepper_41/getting_started/me/mecab.final.pexe

I think I saw the linker still try to link to libiconv despite the --without-libiconv-prefix switch; maybe I'm using it wrong. it complained that my libiconv wasn't portable.
