Hello, Thanks a looooot for your inputs. I tried this on Solaris and it
worked!!! Now I am trying the same on linux. I could do the configuration of
fontconfig successfully. But to my bad luck, I am getting below error during
compilation. make[2]: Entering directory

OS: Redhat 7.1 When I installed XFree86 : 4.5.0, fontconfig, freetype and xft all were installed by
XFree86 only. Where should I keep fontconfig source code? How can
I make freetype and other required libs/includes available to fontconfig? Thanks for your valuable inputs. Thanks and Regards, Rupa. -----Original Message----- > Hello, > > Thanks for your reply. I need to ship the fontconfig library,

The code does not presently support the use of arbitrary environment variables and I'm not sure if there might be any security implications from doing so. However, if you want your shipped copy of fontconfig to use an environment variable, then you can write a quick and dirty hack to, for
instance, FcConfigAddDir. Add something like the following lines: if (strcmp(d, "$CUSTOM_FONT_DIR") == 0) d = (FcChar8 *) getenv ("CUSTOM_FONT_DIR"); I think that'll work for your case. pat |
