Portable UnRAR version
1. General
This package includes freeware Unrar C++ source and a few makefiles
(makefile.bcc, makefile.msc+msc.dep, makefile.unix). Unrar source
is subset of RAR and generated from RAR source automatically,
by a small program removing blocks like '#ifndef UNRAR ... #endif'.
Such method is not perfect and you may find some RAR related
stuff unnecessary in Unrar, especially in header files.
If you wish to port Unrar to a new platform, you may need to edit
'#define LITTLE_ENDIAN' in os.hpp and data type definitions
in rartypes.hpp.
if computer architecture does not allow not aligned data access,
you need to undefine ALLOW_NOT_ALIGNED_INT and define
STRICT_ALIGNMENT_REQUIRED in os.h. Note that it will increase memory
requirements.
If you use Borland C++ makefile (makefile.bcc), you need to define
BASEPATHCC environment (or makefile) variable containing
the path to Borland C++ installation.
Makefile.unix contains numerous compiler option sets.
GCC Linux is selected by default. If you need to compile Unrar
for other platforms, uncomment corresponding lines.
2. Unrar binaries
If you compiled Unrar for OS, which is not present in "Downloads"
and "RAR extras" on www.rarlab.com, we will appreciate if you send
us the compiled executable to place it to our site.
3. Acknowledgements
This source includes parts of code written by the following authors:
Dmitry Shkarin PPMII v.H text compression
Dmitry Subbotin Carryless rangecoder
Szymon Stefanek AES encryption
Brian Gladman AES encryption
Steve Reid SHA-1 hash function
Marcus Herbert makefile.unix file
Tomasz Klim fixes for libunrar.so
Robert Riebisch makefile.dj and patches for DJGPP
4. Legal stuff
Unrar source may be used in any software to handle RAR archives
without limitations free of charge, but cannot be used to re-create
the RAR compression algorithm, which is proprietary. Distribution
of modified Unrar source in separate form or as a part of other
software is permitted, provided that it is clearly stated in
the documentation and source comments that the code may not be used
to develop a RAR (WinRAR) compatible archiver.
