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 18.04 (Bionic Beaver) and 16.04 (Xenial) though it should be possible to build on any recent Ubuntu 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 working 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 wget boost boost-devel boost-static openssl openssl-devel glibc-static centos-release-scl-rh
yum -y install devtoolset-7-toolchain devtoolset-7-gcc devtoolset-7-gcc-c++ devtoolset-7-valgrind-devel
scl enable devtoolset-7 bash
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 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
