To produce a PDF manual, issue the command “make pdf” after running
`./configure’.

If you do not wish to build the C++ components, use:

./configure --disable-cxx

			 -*-

If you would like the library to raise an assertion (abort the program) if
a NULL pointer is passed as a parameter to any API function that does not
accept NULL pointers for that parameter, use:

./configure --enable-asserts

			 -*-

The `examples’ subdirectory contains some examples of how to use libconfig
from C and C++.

Flex and Bison are not required in order to build this
package. However, you will need them, if you modify the .l or .y files. See
the list of required build tool versions below.

To successfully compile using MinGW (with gcc 4.4.0 or later), it may
be necessary to modify the file “mingw32\4.4.0\libstdc++.la”, changing line 11
from:

library_names=‘libstdc++.dll.a’

to:

library_names=‘libstdc++.a’

(See http://trac.osgeo.org/geos/ticket/282 for more information).

To cross-compile for Android:

  1. Create a standalone toolchain using the ‘make-standalone-toolchain.sh
    script included with the Android NDK. For example:

$ /pkg/android-ndk-r9d/build/tools/make-standalone-toolchain.sh
–platform=android-19
–install-dir=/pkg/android-toolchain-19
–system=linux-x86_64
–arch=arm

  1. Add the standalone toolchain’s bin directory to the front of the path:

$ export PATH=/pkg/android-toolchain-19/bin:$PATH

  1. Configure libconfig for cross-compilation:

$ ./configure --host=arm-linux-androideabi
–with-sysroot=/pkg/android-toolchain-19/sysroot

  1. Build libconfig

$ make

Build tools dependencies. (These are only required if you are a maintainer.)

Autoconf 2.69
Automake 1.14.1
Bison 3.0.2
Flex 2.5.39
Libtool 2.4.2

For some reason, we need to symlink /pkg/android-toolchain-19/sysroot/pkg -> /pkg
