On Debian systems like Ubuntu, the packages for dependencies are:
- cmake (>= 2.8.11)
- git
- libxerces-c-dev
- libxerces-c-doc
- libxalan-c-dev
- libxalan-c-doc
- qtbase5-dev
- qttools5-dev
- qttools5-dev-tools
- qtmultimedia5-dev
- libqt5sql5-sqlite
- libqt5sql5-psql
- libqt5svg5-dev
- libqt5multimedia5-plugins
- doxygen (optional, for source documentation)
We do not do any in-source builds. You will create a separate directory for the build.
$ mkdir brewtarget-build
$ cd brewtarget-build
$ cmake /path/to/brewtarget-src
$ make
Linux-like systems may simply do:
$ sudo make install
Systems that use .deb or .rpm packages may also create a package first:
$ make package
Then either
$ sudo dpkg -i brewtarget*.deb
or
$ sudo rpm -i brewtarget*.rpm
On Mac and Windows environments, the package
target will create an installer
that may be executed to finish the installation.
make package
Makes .deb, .rpm, NSIS Installer, and .tar.bz2 binary packages.make package_source
Makes a .tar.bz2 source package.make source_doc
Makes html documentation of the source in doc/html.
These options are passed to cmake
with the -D
flag before compiling. For
example:
$ cmake /path/to/brewtarget -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DDO_RELEASE_BUILD=ON
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX
-/usr/local
by default. Set this to/usr
on Debian-based systems like Ubuntu.BUILD_DESIGNER_PLUGINS
-OFF
by default. If set toON
, builds the Qt Designer plugins instead of brewtarget.DO_RELEASE_BUILD
-OFF
by default. IfON
, will do a release build. Otherwise, debug build.NO_MESSING_WITH_FLAGS
-OFF
by default.ON
means do not add any build flags whatsoever. May override other options.
