| Summary | 0000453: build as library |
| Description | We have several programs which use inotify-cxx. So building and using inotify-cxx as a library has several advandages:
- if a new version of inotify-cxx comes out, we have to update only once
- if the shared library is used and several programs using it run at once, the lib is only loaded once into the memory
- it is possible to package it and submit this package to distributions like Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu,...
A good library on Linux is usually encompanied by a pkgconfig file. With it it's more conveniant for the user to include the library into a project. So the user does not have to fiddle with the correct library- or include-paths.
Attached are two files:
CMakeLists.txt: for controlling build and install with cmake
inotify-cxx.pc.in: to serve as stub for the pkgconfig file
Just copy these files into the root dir of inotify-cxx. Then call
mkdir build # build in a separate builddir
cd build
cmake ..
make
To copy the lib into /usr/local/lib and the header to /usr/local/include etc.:
make install
If you want to copy to /usr... instead call it like this:
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="/usr" ..
