Building the SENF framework

This procedure will build the complete framework including the unit tests and the example applications. After you have successfully built the library tests, you can continue to setup your own project linking against SENF.

Getting the code

To access the code, check out the code from the BerliOS repository. Change to your development directory and use the following subversion command

$ svn checkout http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/senf/trunk senf

This will create a new directory senf within the current directory. For further documentation on the use of Subversion, see the svn man-page or the subversion homepage at http://subversion.tigris.org. A very good introduction and reference to subversion is available at http://svnbook.red-bean.com.

Additionally ensure, you have installed all necessary Dependencies.

Building

To build the library, execute all unit tests and build all examples applications, use

$ scons default examples all_tests

This assumes, that you want to build the library with your default gcc and requires the boost libraries to be available in the system include paths. If this is not the case take a look a the SConstruct file for configuration variables. You may either specify the variables on the command line or place them into a SConscript.local file.
