API2 source build

Robotino API2 source build process

Step 1: Get the sources via SVN

Check out the sources from our SVN repository as follows.

svn co http://svn.openrobotino.org/api2/trunk source/api2

On Linux make sure that files in the bin folders of the external dependencies are executable.

find source/api2/external -wholename "*/bin/*" -exec chmod +x {} \;

Step 2: Configure, build and install

Configure the build environment with cmake, build and install:

mkdir build/api2
cd build/api2
ccmake ../../source/api2
make install

Windows

In case you used a 32bit compiler set the environment variable ROBOTINOAPI2_32_DIR to the installation directory. When you compiled the library with a 64bit compiler set the environment variable ROBOTINOAPI2_64_DIR The environment variable is used by the other packages to find the FindRobotinoApi.cmake script. For example, on our machine, the environment variable looks like:

ROBOTINOAPI2_32_DIR=E:\build\robotino_api_win32_vc100\install

Linux (Debian)

make ALL_CREATE_INSTALLER
sudo dpkg -i robotino-api-*.deb

Linux (non Debian systems)

The previous make install put all files into the sub-directory install. To be able to use the just build API2 you have to perform the following steps:

• Set the environment variable ROBOTINOAPI2_DIR

example: export ROBOTINOAPI2_DIR=/home/robotino/build/api2/install/usr/local/robotino/api2/

Robotino API2 examples build process

A few have examples have also been included to test Robotino's functionality and also for better understanding of the Robotino API2. The examples can be built on Robotino as follows:

mkdir -p build/circle
cd build/circle
ccmake /usr/local/robotino/examples/src/c++/circle/
configure(c) 2x, generate(g)
make
sudo target/example_circle 127.0.0.1

Note: sudo is available starting with CF card image 3.0. If you are using CF card 2.4 or earlier you have to start a second session logging in as root (password: dorp6) and execute the example from the root session.

Robotino Tools and Daemons build process

Prerequisites

Windows

• Get the latest Qt libraries from Digia
• Alternatively build Qt from source

Linux

• Install libqt4-dev

Step 1: Build REC-RPC

Obtain the sources via SVN as follows:

svn co http://svn.servicerobotics.eu/rec_rpc/trunk source/rec_rpc

Configure the build environment with cmake, build and install:

mkdir build/rec_rpc
cd build/rec_rpc
ccmake ../../source/rec_rpc
make install

Windows

In case you used a 32bit compiler set the environment variable RECRPC32_DIR to the installation directory. When you compiled the library with a 64bit compiler set the environment variable RECRPC64_DIR The environment variable is used by the other packages to find the FindRecRpc.cmake script. For example, on our machine, the environment variable looks like:

RECRPC32_DIR=E:\build\rec-rpc_win32_vc100\install

Linux

make ALL_CREATE_INSTALLER
sudo dpkg -i rec-rpc-*.deb

Step 2: Build Robotino Common

Obtain the sources via SVN as follows:

svn co http://svn.openrobotino.org/common/trunk source/common

Configure the build environment with cmake, build and install:

mkdir build/common
cd build/common
ccmake ../../source/common
make install

Windows

In case you used a 32bit compiler set the environment variable ROBOTINOCOMMON32_DIR to the installation directory. When you compiled the library with a 64bit compiler set the environment variable ROBOTINOCOMMON64_DIR The environment variable is used by the other packages to find the FindRobotinoCommon.cmake script. For example, on our machine, the environment variable looks like:

ROBOTINOCOMMON32_DIR=E:\build\robotino_common_win32_vc100\install

Linux

make ALL_CREATE_INSTALLER
sudo dpkg -i robotino-common-*.deb

Step 3: Build Robotino Daemons

Obtain the sources via SVN as follows:

svn co http://svn.openrobotino.org/daemons/trunk source/daemons

Configure the build environment with cmake, build and install:

mkdir build/daemons
cd build/daemons
ccmake ../../source/daemons
make install
