<p>To run in the output folder (without installing) building the library
|
||
|
is simple. Enter the build folder, run the tools. Like this:</p>
|
||
|
<pre class="literal-block">
|
||
|
cd build
|
||
|
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:string=Release
|
||
|
make
|
||
|
</pre>
|
||
|
<p>This will build the library and its tools and place them in <tt class="docutils literal">/output</tt>.
|
||
|
You can also use a cmake-friendly IDE like KDevelop 4 or the cmake GUI
|
||
|
program.</p>
|
||
|
<p>To be installed into the system or packaged:</p>
|
||
|
<pre class="literal-block">
|
||
|
cd build
|
||
|
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:string=Release \
|
||
|
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \
|
||
|
-DMEMXML_DATA_PATH:path=/usr/share/dfhack ..
|
||
|
make
|
||
|
make install
|
||
|
</pre>
|
||
|
<p>With this dfhack installs:</p>
|
||
|
<ul class="simple">
|
||
|
<li>library to <tt class="docutils literal">$CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX/lib</tt></li>
|
||
|
<li>executables to <tt class="docutils literal">$CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX/bin</tt></li>
|

|
<li>The <tt class="docutils literal">Memory.xml</tt> file to <tt class="docutils literal">/usr/share/dfhack</tt></li>
|

</ul>

<p>Get the automated installer, it will download newest version of mingw

<p>dfhack has a few build targets:</p>
|

|
<ul class="simple">
|
||
|
<li>If you're only after the library run <tt class="docutils literal">make dfhack</tt>.</li>
|
||
|
<li><tt class="docutils literal">make</tt> will build everything.</li>
|
||
|
<li><tt class="docutils literal">make expbench</tt> will build the expbench testing program and the
|
||
|
library.</li>
|

|
</ul>

<div class="section" id="build-types">

<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id9">Build types</a></h1>
|
||
|
<p><tt class="docutils literal">cmake</tt> allows you to pick a build type by changing this
|

|
variable: <tt class="docutils literal">CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE</tt></p>
|

<pre class="literal-block">
|

cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:string=BUILD_TYPE

|

|
<p>Without specifying a build type or 'None', cmake uses the
|
||
|
<tt class="docutils literal">CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS</tt> variable for building.</p>
|
||
|
<p>Valid an useful build types include 'Release', 'Debug' and
|
||
|
'RelWithDebInfo'. There are others, but they aren't really that useful.</p>

<p>Have fun.</p>

<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id10">Building the shared memory hook library (SHM)</a></h1>
|
||
|
<p>Unlike the rest of DFHack, The SHM needs special treatment when it
|
||
|
comes to compilation. Because it shares the memory space with DF
|
||
|
itself, it has to be built with the same tools as DF and use the same C
|
||
|
and C++/STL libraries.</p>
|
||
|
<p>For DF 31.01 - 31.10 on Windows, use MSVC 2008. You can get the Express
|
||
|
edition for free from Microsoft.</p>
|
||
|
<p>Windows dependencies can be determined by a tool like <tt class="docutils literal">depends.exe</tt>
|
||
|
(<a class="reference external" href="http://www.google.com/search?q=depends.exe">google it</a>). Both the fake <tt class="docutils literal">SDL.dll</tt> and DF have to use the same
|
||
|
version of the C runtime (MSVCRT). The SHM can only be debugged using a
|
||
|
RelWithDebInfo build!</p>
|
||
|
<p>Linux dependencies can be determined by setting the LD_DEBUG variable
|
||
|
and running ./df:</p>
|
||
|
<pre class="literal-block">
|
||
|
export LD_DEBUG=versions
|
||
|
./df
|
||
|
</pre>
|
||
|
<p>Example of (a part of a) relevant output from a working SHM
|
||
|
installation:</p>

<p>libdfconnect is the SHM. Both are compiled against the same C++ library

and share the same CXXABI version.</p>

<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id11">Checking strings support</a></h1>
|
||
|
<p>Strings are one of the important C++ types and a great indicator that
|
||
|
the SHM works. Tools like Dwarf Therapist depend on string support.
|
||
|
Reading of strings can be checked by running any of the tools that deal
|
||
|
with materials.</p>
|
||
|
<p>String writing is best tested with a fresh throw-away fort and
|
||
|
<tt class="docutils literal">dfrenamer</tt>.</p>
|
||
|
<p>Embark, give one dwarf a very long name using dfrenamer and save/exit.
|
||
|
If DF crashes during the save sequence, your SHM is not compatible with
|
||
|
DF and the throw-away fort is most probably lost.</p>
