Build instructions

Unix

You need to install autoconf, automake and libtool. They can be installed using brew.

$ ./autogen.sh
$ make

You can use flag --with-poll for using poll() instead of select() for checking connection status

How to link with it

$ gcc -c -o sample.o sample.c `pkg-config libetpan --cflags`
$ gcc -o sample sample.o `pkg-config libetpan --libs`

Mac / iOS

• Install Xcode and CMake. Autoconf, Automake, and Libtool are optional; when present, the bootstrap refreshes the checked-in autotools output.

• Configure libEtPan, initialize the dependency submodules, and build their XCFrameworks:

  复制

  $ ./build-mac/bootstrap.sh
  

• Open build-mac/libetpan.xcworkspace

• Choose the correct target "static libetpan" for Mac or "libetpan ios" for iOS.

• To build all supported slices, choose the "libetpan xcframework" target. The result is written to build-mac/build/LibEtPan.xcframework.
