Compiling and installing

The source uses GNU Autotools (autoconf, automake, libtool), so compiling and installing is simple:

$ ./configure AR=gcc-ar NM=gcc-nm RANLIB=gcc-ranlib
$ make
$ make install

To run the test suite which requires cmocka and valgrind, invoke:

$ make check

To change the destination directory (/usr/local by default), use the --prefix=DIR argument to ./configure. See ./configure --help for the list of all possible configuration options.

The command make check runs the test suite distributed with libreactor. This step is not strictly necessary, but it may find possible problems that libreactor has on your platform. If any problems are found, please report them.

If you obtained the source from a Git repository (or any other source control system), there's no ./configure script as it's not kept in version control. To create the script, the build system needs to be bootstrapped. There are many ways to do this, but the easiest one is to use the supplied autogen.sh script:

$ ./autogen.sh
