This archive contains pre-configured CodeSynthesis XSD/e source code with all its dependencies (except Xerces-C++ and Boost). It allows you to build the XSD/e compiler in non-interactive mode (that is, without answering any configuration questions). The following GNU tools are required to build XSD/e. Any fairly recent GNU/Linux distribution should have these already installed: GNU bash >= 2.00 (bash --version) http://www.gnu.org/software/bash/ GNU m4 >= 1.4 (m4 --version) http://www.gnu.org/software/m4/ GNU make >= 3.81 (make --version) http://www.gnu.org/software/make/ GNU g++ >= 3.4.3 (g++ --version) http://gcc.gnu.org/ The build system expects you to have the Xerces-C++ (2.6.0 or later) as well as Boost filesystem and regex (1.33.1 or later) libraries built and installed in a location where the C++ compiler looks by default (normally /usr/lib/ and /usr/local/lib/). Alternatively, you can provide include (-I) and library (-L) paths for this packages via the CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS variables, respectively. The build system supports the following variables: CXX (defaults to g++ if not set) AR (defaults to ar if not set) RANLIB (defaults to ranlib if not set) CPPFLAGS CXXFLAGS LDFALGS LIBS BOOST_LIB_SUFFIX BOOST_LINK_SYSTEM For example: $ make CXX=g++-4.2 CXXFLAGS=-O3 -j 4 The BOOST_LIB_SUFFIX variable allows you to specify the optional Boost library suffix. For example, if your Boost library names are in the libboost_regex-gcc41-mt-d.so format, then you will need to set BOOST_LIB_SUFFIX to -gcc41-mt-d. The BOOST_LINK_SYSTEM variable allows you to specify whether the Boost system library should be explicitly linked to which may be required by newer linkers. The valid values are 'y' (default) and 'n'. If you would like to see the full compiler/linker/etc., command lines, you can add verbose=1 to the make command line: $ make verbose=1 After the build is complete, the XSD/e compiler can be found in the xsde/xsde/ directory. You can also create a distribution package with the XSD/e compiler binary, source code and build system for the runtime library and examples, as well as the documentation using the dist and dist-win targets, for example: $ make dist_prefix=./xsde-x.y.z dist Or, for Windows: $ make dist_prefix=./xsde-x.y.z dist-win The build system also supports the clean target: $ make clean Send bug reports or any other feedback to the xsde-users@codesynthesis.com mailing list.
