sudo apt-get install git build-essential gcc cmake python python-lxml
# build
git clone https://github.com/acplt/open62541.git
cd open62541
mkdir build
cmake .. # generate the build scripts
# Optionally create an Eclipse project: cmake -G "Eclipse CDT4 - Unix Makefiles" ..
make # creates executables in the build directory
# enable additional features
sudo apt-get install libexpat1-dev # for XML-encoding
sudo apt-get install liburcu-dev # for multithreading
sudo apt-get install check # for unit tests
sudo apt-get install graphviz doxygen # for documentation generation
ccmake .. # to select features for compilation. Use "cmake-gui .." for more eye-candy
make
make check # unit tests
make doc # generate documentation
Windows (Visual Studio)
- Get and install Python and CMake: https://python.org/downloads, http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html
- Get and install Visual Studio 2013 (Express): http://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=40787
- Download the open62541 sources (using git or as a zipfile from github)
- Add the folder with the python executable to the Windows PATH (System Settings)
- Download https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py
- Open a command shell (cmd) and run
Batchfile python <path-to>\get-pip.py python -m pip install lxml cd <path-to>\open62541 mkdir build cd build <path-to>\cmake.exe .. -G "Visual Studio 12 2013" open "build\open62541.sln" in Visual Studio 2013 and build as usual
Windows (MinGW)
- Execute the same steps as in the Visual Studio case. But instead of installing Visual Studio, get and install MinGW:
- Get the latest MinGW installer: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/latest/download?source=files
- Select following packages: mingw-developer-toolkit, mingw32-base, msys-base
- After install, run MinGW\msys\1.0\postinstall\pi.bat
- The cmake command changes to
Batchfile <path-to>\cmake.exe .. -G "MinGW Makefiles" - Then run (still in the build folder)
Batchfile <path-to>\mingw32-make.exe
Get expat
- Start MinGW Installation Manager
mingw-get.exe - Choose all Packages, mark mingw32-expat and install
Get the check unit testing framework
- Download check from http://check.sourceforge.net/
- Open MinGW\msys\1.0\msys.bat
bash cd check-code autoreconf --install ./configure make make install
