sdbus-c++
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
sdbus-c++ is a C++ API library for D-Bus IPC, based on sd-bus implementation.
|
|
|
|
Building and installing the library
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The library is built using CMake:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ mkdir build
|
|
$ cd build
|
|
$ cmake .. ${CONFIGURE_FLAGS_IF_NECESSARY}
|
|
$ make
|
|
$ sudo make install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### CMake configuration flags
|
|
|
|
* `BUILD_CODE_GEN` [boolean]
|
|
|
|
Option for building the stub code generator `sdbus-c++-xml2cpp` for generating the adaptor and proxy interfaces out of the D-Bus IDL XML description. Default value: `OFF`. Use `-DBUILD_CODE_GEN=ON` flag to turn on building the code gen.
|
|
|
|
* `BUILD_DOC` [boolean]
|
|
|
|
Option for building Doxygen documentation of sdbus-c++ API. If `BUILD_DOC` is enabled, the documentation must still be built explicitly through `make doc`. Default value: `ON`. Use `-DBUILD_DOC=OFF` to disable searching for Doxygen and building Doxygen documentation of sdbus-c++ API.
|
|
|
|
* `BUILD_TESTS` [boolean]
|
|
|
|
Option for building sdbus-c++ unit and integration tests, invokable by `make test`. That incorporates downloading and building static libraries of Google Test. Default value: `OFF`. Use `-DBUILD_TESTS=ON` to enable building the tests. With this option turned on, you may also enable/disable the following options:
|
|
|
|
* `BUILD_PERF_TESTS` [boolean]
|
|
|
|
Option for building sdbus-c++ performance tests. Default value: `OFF`.
|
|
|
|
* `BUILD_STRESS_TESTS` [boolean]
|
|
|
|
Option for building sdbus-c++ stress tests. Default value: `OFF`.
|
|
|
|
* `TESTS_INSTALL_PATH` [string]
|
|
|
|
Path where the test binaries shall get installed. Default value: `/opt/test/bin`.
|
|
|
|
Dependencies
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
* `C++17` - the library uses C++17 `std::uncaught_exceptions()` feature. When building sdbus-c++ manually, make sure you use a compiler that supports that feature.
|
|
* `libsystemd` - systemd library containing sd-bus implementation. Systemd v236 at least is needed for sdbus-c++ to compile.
|
|
* `googletest` - google unit testing framework, only necessary when building tests, will be downloaded and built automatically
|
|
|
|
Licensing
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
The library is distributed under LGPLv2.1 license.
