Build instructions

After you have downloaded an archive or cloned a git repository, you may build the shared library, examples and tests.

Build Requirements

• Library is built with CMake cross-platform build tool, so you need it installed.
• You need ZeroMQ library in order to compile ZmqMessage library.

Runtime requirements

• You need ZeroMQ library at runtime too.

Build Steps

Go to zmqmessage directory and do following:

$ mkdir build
$ cd build
//configure CMAKE: This command generates makefiles.
$ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/install ..
//or just "cmake ..". /path/to/install by default is /usr/local
//or type "ccmake .." for more control, or when zeromq library is installed in non-standard places

//then just make and install:
$ make
$ make install
//or "sudo make install" depending on permissions

That's all.

If you wish to build shared library with custom exceptions (ZMQMESSAGE_EXCEPTION_MACRO) or with ZMQMESSAGE_WRAP_ZMQ_ERROR defined, you may create .hpp file with definitions of these exceptions.

//@file mydefs.hpp

#define ZMQMESSAGE_WRAP_ZMQ_ERROR

#define ZMQMESSAGE_EXCEPTION_MACRO(name) \
  class name \
  { \
  .... \
  }

On "cmake" step you can force include the file:

$ cmake -DZMQMESSAGE_CONFIGURATION_HEADER=/path/to/mydefs.hpp ..

Note, that building shared library is not really necessary, as ZmqMessage library may be compiled in your binary. See linking options section in tutorial for details.

If you want to generate offline documentation:

$ make doc

Documentation is generated at doc/html/index.html.

Note, that you need Doxygen to be installed in order to generate documentation.
