Below the prerequisites for compiling open-license-manager. For developing it we use Eclipse.
Recent CDT works smoothly with CMake. Remember to install the Ninja package as build system and Cmake Gui for a good eclipse integration.
Supported Ubuntu distributions are 20.04 (Focal Fossa), 18.04 (Bionic Beaver) and 16.04 (Xenial). It should be possible to build on any recent Ubuntu (debian like) version.
Install prerequisites:
sudo apt-get install cmake valgrind libssl-dev zlib1g-dev libboost-test-dev libboost-filesystem-dev \
libboost-iostreams-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-system-dev libboost-thread-dev \
libboost-date-time-dev build-essential
For development with eclipse:
sudo apt-get install cmake-gui ninja-build
CentOS 7 ships with gcc 4.8 that isn't compiling for a bug on regular expression. It's necessary to update to gcc 4.9 or later.
Install prerequisites:
yum -y update && yum -y install install centos-release-scl
yum -y install wget boost boost-devel boost-static openssl openssl-devel openssl-static
yum -y install glibc-static devtoolset-7-toolchain devtoolset-7-gcc devtoolset-7-gcc-c++ devtoolset-7-valgrind-devel
export CC=/opt/rh/devtoolset-7/root/usr/bin/gcc
export CXX=/opt/rh/devtoolset-7/root/usr/bin/g++
Centos 7 ships with CMake 2.8.11 that's not supported. You need to compile and install a newer (>3.6) version of CMake.
wget https://cmake.org/files/v3.11/cmake-3.11.0.tar.gz
tar zxvf cmake-3.11.0.tar.gz
cd cmake-3.11.0
./bootstrap
make
sudo make install
cmake --version #(check it's 3.11.0)
If you don't want to install all these prerequisites in your machine you can also build the library in a docker container.
Check for the corresponding Centos 7 section in the .travis.yml file at the base of the project.
Install prerequisites:
yum -y update && yum -y groupinstall 'Development Tools'
yum -y install wget cmake boost boost-devel openssl-devel zlib-devel
dnf -y --enablerepo=PowerTools install boost-static
CentOS 8 doesn't ship with a static version of openssl. It is necessary to compile it from sources.
wget https://github.com/openssl/openssl/archive/OpenSSL_1_1_1d.tar.gz
tar xzf OpenSSL_1_1_1d.tar.gz && cd openssl-OpenSSL_1_1_1d
./config && make -j 8
sudo make install
Open License Manager should compile on any recent (2019) linux distribution. Being CentOS 7 the older distribution we keep compatibilty with.
Minimum prerequisites
* gcc => 4.9, cmake => 3.6
* zlib, openssl => 1.0.2
* Boost => 1.57 (If you want to compile your own boost version remember to use the flag runtime-link=static)
Optional prerequisites:
* Doxygen, Sphynx for documentation
This project has a submodule (the license generator). Remember to add the option --recursive to clone it.
git clone --recursive https://github.com/open-license-manager/open-license-manager.git
cd open-license-manager/build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../install
make
make install
make test
ctest -T memcheck
| Definition name | Description |
|---|---|
| LCC_PROJECT_NAME= | This correspond to the name of the project you're generating licenses for. The flag is optional, if you don't specify it the build system will create a project named DEFAULT for you |
| LCC_LOCATION= | In case you download the license generator separately this is the folder where it was installed or where his lcc-config.cmake can be found |
| CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release | generate a release version of the library (should be used as default) |
| CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX | folder where to install compiled libraries and headers. (default: /usr/local) |
| BOOST_ROOT | Folder where boost was installed (optional: if you installed boost using system package manager this should not be necessary) |
| OPENSSL_ROOT | Folder where OpenSSL was installed (optional: if you installed openssl as system package this should not be necessary) |
Tested on host: Ubuntu 18.04
