Directory Structure

The src directory cntains the source code for the client, server and vm manager in their respective folders.

The build-release folder contains the executables and build files for the corresponding client, server and vm manager in thier respective folders.

Compilation Instructions

This project has been build using cmake build system, which can be installed on Ubuntu using,

	sudo apt-get install cmake

In order to build the project, cd into the server , client or manager directory under build-release directory,correspondingly whichever needs to be built.

Empty the build directory if compiling on a new machine for the first time. For example, if manager needs to be built, the build directory for manager which is 193059004/build-release/manager, first remove the contents of this directory using, rm -rf 193059004/build-release/manager/.

Once the build folder is cleaned up cd into it and type,

	cmake <path to source directory>

This will create all the necessary make files, required to build the executable from the source files. The, just run make to build the executable.

For example,

cd 193059004/build-release/manager
rm -rf .
cmake ../../src/VMManager
make

This will build the executable for Manager.

Alternatively, the executable for the corresponding source, the executable will already be present in the corresponding build directory.
