Compiling + Running RetroShare (V0.3.0)
-------------------------------------------------------------
Quick Requirements:
---------------------------------------------
Libraries/Tools:
C/C++ Compiler. (standard on Linux/cygwin)
OpenSSL-0.9.7g-xpgp
KadC Dht library
Qt-4.2 development libraries.
RetroShare Source Code: ( from sf.net/projects/retroshare)
Qt-GUI-XXX.tgz
retroshare-src-v0.3.XXX.tgz
Windows Requirements:
Cygwin (Windows Only)
Pthreads (Windows Only)
Zlib (Windows Only)
---------------------------------------------
OpenSSL-0.9.7g-xpgp is available at:
http://www.lunamutt.com/retroshare/openssl-0.9.7g-xpgp-0.1c.tgz
KadC (latest) is available from sourceforge.net
Download/Compile as per instructions...
---------------------------------------------
Compiling Linux
---------------------------------------------
(1) compile openSSL-0.9.7g-xpgp.
(2) compile KadC. (and correct the library)
(4) Modify ./make.opts
(4a) modify the Makefile so that: OS=Linux or OS=Win
(4c) Define SSL_DIR to point to openSSL-0.9.7g-xpgp.
(4c) Define KADC_DIR to point to KadC
(5) type: make
This builds ./lib/libretroshare.a,
and the various test programs.
There is server-only (no GUI) executable
compiled in ./rsiface/retroshare-nogui,
you can run this to check that its working.
---------------------------------------------
Compiling Linux (Alternative Instructions from Bharath)
---------------------------------------------
here's how to compiled retroshare on ubuntu linux:
compile openssl:
1. Get the patched version of openssl (openssl-0.9.7g-xpgp, from http://www.lunamutt.com)
2. run:
./config
make
make test
compile KadC:
1. Get KadC library from http://kadc.sourceforge.net/
2. run:
make
install packages needed for retroshare compile:
sudo apt-get install libxft-dev
sudo apt-get install libXinerama-dev
complile retroshare:
1. set directories in make.opt:
RS_DIR=/home/dev/rs-v0.3.0-pr8/src
SSL_DIR=/home/dev/openssl-0.9.7g-xpgp-0.1c
KADC_DIR=/home/dev/KadC
2. comment out the directory declarations uncer Cygwin since that will override your directory declarations from 1.
3. change RSLIBS = -L$(LIBDIR) -lretroshare -L$(SSL_DIR) -lssl -lcrypto -lpthread -lKadC
to
RSLIBS = -L$(LIBDIR) -lretroshare -L$(SSL_DIR) -lssl -lcrypto -lpthread -L$(KADC_DIR) -lKadC
4. run:
make
Hope this helps.
---------------------------------------------
Compiling the Qt GUI
_____________________________________________
(1) untar the Qt-GUI source package. run qmake,
tar -xvzf Qt-GUI-XXXX.tgz
cd Qt-Gui-XXX/src/
qmake-qt4 Retroshare.pro
(2) tweak the makefile: The default makefile
doesn't have the links to the retroshare
libraries. It should something like this:
RSLIBS = -L/home/dev/prog/devel/rs-v0.3.0XXX/src/lib -lretroshare -lKadC
SSLLIBS = -L/home/dev/prog/devel/openssl-0.9.7g-xpgp -lssl -lcrypto
LIBS = $(SUBLIBS) $(RSLIBS) $(SSLLIBS) -L/usr/lib -lQtXml -lQtGui -lQtNetwork -lQtCore -lpthread
This should build you an executable:
RetroShare.
------------------------------------------------
This has been compiled on the following platforms:
(a) Debian Linux (stable/testing/unstable)
(b) Suse Linux (9.X/10.X)
(c) WinXP
------------------------------------------------
WIN XP Compilation.
------------------------------------------------
This much harder, and more perilous than the
Linux compilation: It requires both the cygwin
and the mingw compilers...
Need:
Cygwin development environment
Qt4.2 opensource development kit + MinGw.
source code for all libraries.
In Brief:
UNDER Cygwin:
(1) Compile openssl-xpgp.
(2) Compile pthreads.
(3) Compile zlib.
(4) Compile KadC. (there are some tweaks,
needed to the code)
(5) Compile retroshare-v0.3.0
UNDER Mingw:
(6) Compile the Qt-Gui.
