Installation of C++ Implementation¶

Dependencies¶

• Boost >= 1.38 (for hardy available in the gar-installer, 1.34.1 untested)
• Boost.UUID (header-only, officially included in Boost since 1.42, headers from this version can be used with all older versions of boost, gar-installer package available)
• Google Protocol Buffers
  • Ubuntu Lucid packages are ok (libprotobuf-dev, protobuf-compiler)
  • can also be installed from GAR installer via contrib/protobuf
• Spread Toolkit >= 4.0
  • Ubuntu Lucid package does not work, due to outdated version 3
  • Can be installed through GAR installer via contrib/spread or from source
• CMake (tested with 2.8)
• optional:
  • Doxygen for API generation
  • Lcov for code coverage analysis
  • cppcheck for static code analysis

Supported Operating Systems and Compilers¶

• Linux (GCC 4.x)
• Windows (MS Visual Studio 9 2008)

Other combination may be possible but are currently untested.

Installation of RSC, RSBProtocol and RSB¶

• Checkout RSB and its immediate dependencies from the Subversion repository:
  • RSC: https://code.cor-lab.org/svn/rsc/trunk/rsc
  • RSB Protocol: https://code.cor-lab.org/svn/rsb/trunk/protocol
  • RSB C++: https://code.cor-lab.org/svn/rsb/trunk/cpp/core
• 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
