Prerequisites ============= Various software packages are required to be installed in order to build from source. Several of these may also be built and installed by this super-build. However, note that the super-build cannot provide *all* prerequisites; some will still need installing before building, shown in the table below. .. tabularcolumns:: |l|l|l|c|c|c| +---------------+--------------+--------------+--------------------------------------+ | | Version | When required | +---------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------+ | Package | Recommended | Minimum | Source build | Client build | Deploy | +===============+==============+==============+==============+==============+========+ | Toolchain | | | \• | \• | | +---------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------+ | CMake | 3.5 | 3.2 | \• | \• | | +---------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------+ | Git | 2.9.x | 1.7.x | ◦ | ◦ | | +---------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------+ \• Required ◦ Optional, needed only if building from a git repository :ref:`pkg_toolchain` :ref:`pkg_cmake` :ref:`pkg_git` Quick start ----------- Install the following packages to build OME-Files C++. A subset of these packages (or their dependencies) may be used for deployment, where the development package headers and tools for building documentation etc. are not required. Run the appropriate command below for your platform to install the build dependencies: Install the following: - :ref:`pkg_toolchain` - :ref:`pkg_cmake` - :ref:`pkg_git` Examples: BSD Ports ``pkg install cmake git`` Debian/Ubuntu ``apt-get install build-essential cmake git`` Homebrew and RedHat/CentOS do not provide packages for everything that is needed. The commands listed will install *most* of the dependencies, but further dependencies will need to be installed as described in various sections below. Homebrew Install Xcode, then ``brew install cmake git`` RedHat/CentOS ``yum groupinstall "Development Tools"``, then ``yum install git``; install cmake by hand. Additional prerequisites ------------------------ The super-build is a generic framework for building C++ software components. Depending upon which component (or components) are requested to be built, additional prerequisites may be required. Additionally, the super-build may be configured with different options to customise the build, and this may also cause additional prerequisites to be added. .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 :titlesonly: prerequisites/ome-common prerequisites/ome-files prerequisites/ome-qtwidgets prerequisites/ome-xml
