This file contains helpful information about the contract between
the reSIProcate stack and the build system.
Build systems:
- reSIP legacy build system:
- a custom system based on Makefiles
- typically used for UNIX and UNIX-like systems
- standard system used in releases <= 1.7.x
- autotools build
- a traditional autotools setup with configure.ac, Makefile.am, etc
- typically used for UNIX and UNIX-like systems
- standard system used in releases >= 1.8.x
- Windows build
- use of standard Visual Studio build environment with `vcproj' and `sln'
files
- supported on all releases as an alternative to the UNIX build system(s)
Many of the comments within this document are intended to be common
across ALL the build systems, unless stated otherwise.
config.h
--------
config.h is an optional header file. Any code that wants to use
config.h should check if HAVE_CONFIG_H is defined.
It is desireable to create a config.h file on any platform (autotools
configure creates it automatically) and use it to obtain
values like PACKAGE_VERSION.
Some build variables
--------------------
These variables are set within the Makefiles and some of them are
passed to the compiler using the -D option or a header file
such as config.h. Those marked with an asterisk (*) symbol
are passed to the compiler in some way.
Some of them are similar to autotools varibles, however, the
values used within the reSIProcate project are actually not
identical to the values used in autotools, for legacy reasons.
OSCLASS: can be UNIX or VXWORKS
VOCAL_TOOLCHAIN_TYPE
known values:
# gnu -- the gcc compiler (default)
# armcross -- the ARM crosscompiler -- DEPRECATED, DO NOT USE
# sunpro -- Sun's Forte C++ compiler (default on SunOS)
# intel -- intel's icc compiler for linux
# msgnu -- Microsoft's Visual C++ compiler , but using GNU make
# instead of project files.
TARGET_TYPE = VOCAL_COMPILE_TYPE
known values: debug, opt, gopt, prof, gcov, nodebug, small
Known values:
armcross
gnu-cross
RESIP_FIXED_POINT* (yes or no)
INSTALL_PATH
CROSS_PLATFORM
Used with VOCAL_TOOLCHAIN_TYPE=gnu-cross to set target environment
OPEN_SSL_CONFIG
# OSTYPE -- this variable is the OS type of the target system. By default
# this is the OS of the host system
RESIP_OSTYPE_something*
something = OSTYPE in uppercase, e.g. OSTYPE=linux, implies that
-DRESIP_OSTYPE_LINUX will be passed to the compiler
Ways of guessing it: uname
Known OSTYPE values:
Linux
linux (treated as Linux)
SunOS
solaris and solaris* (treated as SunOS)
FreeBSD
freebsd* (treated as FreeBSD)
Darwin
darwin and darwin* (treated as Darwin)
MinGW
msys and MINGW32_NT-5.1 (treated as MinGW)
OSVER -- OS version
Ways of deriving it: uname -r | tr '()/' " "
Known OSVER values:
Also derived by breaking OSVER into components:
OS_MAJOR_VER
OS_MINOR_VER
OS_POINT_VER
OS_PATCH_VER
# ARCH -- this is the machine architecture of the target system.
# By default this is the architecture of the host system.
RESIP_ARCH_something*
Ways of deriving it: uname -m | sed 's/ /_/g'
Known ARCH values:
arm
sun4v
x86_64
i?86
i86pc
powermac
Power Macintosh: treated as powermac
sh vxworks
OS_ARCH := $(OSTYPE).$(ARCH)
TARGET_NAME := $(TARGET_TYPE).$(OS_ARCH)
# LARCH -- this is the "logical" architecture for the target system.
# This is to let systems with different "architectures" but
# in the same family be the same, e.g. IA32 for i386, i486, i586,
# and i686.
RESIP_LARCH_something*
Ways of deriving it: LARCH = ARCH
Known values:
ia32: for ARCH IN (i86pc, i?86)
# ROOT -- this is the location of the "root" of the file system. It
# requires that the BUILD macro be set to the path to the build
# directory.
ROOT = directory location of configure.ac
TOOLS = directory location of build stuff ($ROOT/build)
RESIP_TOOLCHAIN_something*
REPRO_BUILD_REV*
REPRO_BUILD_HOST*
REPRO_RELEASE_VERSION*
DB_HEADER* typically db.hxx
USE_SSL*

USE_RANDOM_THREAD_LOCAL
USE_R_WRAPPER
USE_SIGCOMP*
USE_MAXMIND_GEOIP*

RESIP_HAS_RVALUE_REFS*
RESIP_HAS_STATEFUL_ALLOCATOR_SUPPORT*
_RESIP_MONOTONIC_CLOCK*
RESIP_RANDOM_THREAD_MUTEX*
USE_DNS_VIP*
Windows Only Defines
RESIP_RANDOM_WIN32_RTL*
WIN32_SYNCRONOUS_RESOLUTION_ON_ARES_FAILURE*
RESIP_CONDITION_WIN32_CONFORMANCE_TO_POSIX*
NO_IPHLPAPI*
LEAK_CHECK*
These variables are typically used on Windows builds to use
the headers from an unpacked source tarball rather than using headers
installed to the locations intended by the package. In such cases,
the path component preceeding the header filename often differs slightly:
RESIP_CONTRIB_GLOOX - use gloox headers from contrib
