#45 Build system

[Jörg Frings-Fürst]

Hello,

after the cmake files have been split into architecture specific ones and placed in a subdirectory, it is no longer possible for Debian to compile or only with extremely high effort.

Please merge the architecture specific cmake files and put this into the main directory of the project.

Thanks in advance

Can you please tell me the exact commands you used to attempt build the library on your machine?

Also, is your machine a 32 bit or 64 bit machine?

Thanks

Gary

Hi Gary,

I am the maintainer of xbase at Debian.

Debian will use different architectures[1]. Therefore it is desirable to be able to compile everything with a cmake file.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Jorg
There is an updated version of the xbase64 library on Sourceforge.   Version 4.1.0 has a new build setup for the Debian platform.
There is a file called README.debian in the build/debian sub folder and it has listed the steps needed to build the library.
It should correctly compile the library for what ever platform debian is running on.  It supports 32 or 64 bit builds and also supports big or little endian machines.
I set up the latest version of Debain on one of my machines and it built out OK.  If you have any issues with it, please let me know.
Thanks
Gary
