To compile libabigail, you first need to install its dependencies. At
|
|
the moment the dependencies are the following Free Software packages:
|
|
|
|
elfutils
|
|
libtool
|
|
libxml2
|
|
|
|
If you are building from the Git repository, then you'd also need the
|
|
following packages:
|
|
|
|
autoconf
|
|
automake
|
|
pkg-config
|
|
|
|
If you want to build the documentation of libabigail, then you also
|
|
need these packages (and its dependencies):
|
|
|
|
doxygen
|
|
python-sphinx
|
|
|
|
Note that if you are installing these packages in a binary form
|
|
provided by your distribution, then you probably need to install the
|
|
development variant of those that have one.
|
|
|
|
Once you have installed the development packages of the dependencies,
|
|
there are two options for compiling libabigail, depending on the two
|
|
kinds of source code package you have: either you've got the source
|
|
code from our Git source control management system, or you've got a
|
|
released tarball.
|
|
|
|
* Getting and compiling libabigail from Git
|
|
===========================================
|
|
|
|
To get the source code from git, you have to type:
|
|
|
|
git clone git://sourceware.org/git/libabigail.git
|
|
|
|
Please note that to compile libabigail from its sources in this case,
|
|
you need to have the 'autoconf' page installed on your machine.
|
|
|
|
Then go to your local libabigail.git directory where the source code
|
|
you've checked out lies and create a 'build' directory that will
|
|
receive the binaries resulting from the compilation:
|
|
|
|
cd libabigail.git
|
|
mkdir build
|
|
|
|
Generate the relevant build-system-related information needed to
|
|
configure the package for compilation, by typing:
|
|
|
|
autoreconf -i
|
|
|
|
Then configure the package:
|
|
|
|
cd build
|
|
../configure --prefix=<absolute-path-of-where-you-want-the-binaries-to-be-installed>
|
|
|
|
Then build the package
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
And then install its resulting binaries and documentation:
|
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
* Getting and compiling libabigail from released tarballs
|
|
=========================================================
|
|
|
|
First, get a tarball from ftp://sourceware.org/pub/libabigail.
|
|
|
|
Then untar it and go to the resulting source directory.
|
|
|
|
Then create a build directory that is to receive the result of the
|
|
compilation and cd into it:
|
|
|
|
mkdir build
|
|
cd build
|
|
|
|
Then configure the package:
|
|
|
|
../configure --prefix=<absolute-path-of-where-you-want-the-binaries-to-be-installed>
|
|
|
|
Then compile it:
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
Then install the resulting binaries
|
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
* Building the documentation of libabigail
|
|
==========================================
|
|
|
|
To build the documentation of libabigail, you need to install the
|
|
python-sphinx package prior to running configure.
|
|
|
|
Once you've done that, type:
|
|
|
|
make doc
|
|
|
|
This will generate the documentation in html, info and man format, in
|
|
under the doc/ subdirectory of your build directory.
|
|
|
|
If you only want the html documentation (mainly the web site, apidoc and manuals) then just type:
|
|
|
|
make html-doc
|
|
|
|
If you only want to generate the man documentation, just type:
|
|
|
|
make man
|
|
|
|
If you only want to generate the info documentation, just type:
|
|
|
|
make info
|
