On most Unix-like systems, you should be able to install libarchive, |
| 5 |
bsdtar, and bsdcpio using the following common steps: |
| 6 |
./configure |
| 7 |
make |
| 8 |
make install |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
If you need to customize the target directories or otherwise adjust |
| 11 |
the build setting, use |
| 12 |
./configure --help |
| 13 |
to list the configure options. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
If you are developing libarchive and need to update the |
| 16 |
configure script and other build files: |
| 17 |
/bin/sh build/autogen.sh |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
To create a distribution, please use the 'distcheck' target: |
| 20 |
/bin/sh build/autogen.sh && ./configure && make distcheck |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
On Unix-like and non-Unix-like systems, use the "cmake" utility (available from |
| 23 |
http://cmake.org/) to generate suitable build files for your platform. |
| 24 |
Cmake requires the name of the directory containing CmakeLists.txt and |
| 25 |
the "generator" to use for your build environment. For example, to |
| 26 |
build with Xcode on Mac OS, you can use the following command: |
| 27 |
cmake -G "Xcode" ~/libarchive-download-dir/ |
| 28 |
The result will be appropriate makefiles, solution files, or project |
| 29 |
files that can be used with the corresponding development tool. |
| 30 |
The default on Unix-like systems is to generate Makefiles, so you |
| 31 |
can also use cmake instead of the configure script: |
| 32 |
cmake ~/libarchive-download-dir/ |
| 33 |
make |
| 34 |
make install |
| 35 |
See the libarchive Wiki or the cmake site for further documentation. |
