Installation of C++ Implementation

External Dependencies

  • Boost (mostly dependencies of RSC library), in particular
    • boost::uuid (can be installed from GAR installer via contrib/boost.uuid, maverick: libboost1.42-dev)
    • libboost-thread-dev
    • libboost-filesystem-dev
    • libboost-signals-dev
  • Google Protocol Buffers (ubuntu lucid package is ok, can also be installed from GAR installer via contrib/protobuf), in particular
    • libprotobuf-dev
    • protobuf-compiler
  • Optional:
    • Doxygen for documentation generation (ubuntu package)
    • lcov and gcovr for coverage report (ubuntu package, gcovr from svn trunk)

Up to this step, in Maverick installing the dependencies should be as simple as:

sudo apt-get install libprotobuf-java libprotobuf-dev protobuf-compiler libboost-thread-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-signals-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-regex-dev libboost1.42-dev

  • Spread Toolkit for Spread multicast transport extension (lucid ubuntu package does not work, due to outdated version 3)
    • Can be installed through GAR installer via contrib/spread or from source

Installation of RSC, RSBProtocol and RSB

  • Checkout RSB and its immediate dependencies from the Subversion repository:
  • CMake is required to configure the projects.
  • Build and install the RSB C++ core and its dependencies (in the order given below):
    1. Build and install RSC Library:
      cd rsc/build && cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$prefix && make && make install
    2. Install RSB Protocol Definitions
      cd protocol/build && cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$prefix && make && make install

      Note: these protocol definitions are shared across programming languages.
    3. Build and install RSB C++ Core
      cd core/build && cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$prefix -DRSC_DIR=$prefix/share/RSC && make && make install
