Building the HAMcast prototype

Overview

We developed and tested the HAMcast prototype under Ubuntu Linux (> 10.10) and MacOS X. However, it should compile and run under any other Linux distribution as well - let us know if you encounter any problems. HAMcast and most of its components are mainly written in C/C++ and use parts of the boost libraries. Some technology modules and tools need additional libraries. As HAMcast is released as open source, all external tools and libraries are also freely available and no fees have to be paid. Most, if not all of them, are available in package repositories of any common Linux distribution.


Requirements

To build and run HAMcast certain tools and libraries must be available.

  • General dependencies:
    • C/C++ Compiler (gcc, g++)
    • C/C++ standard Libraries
    • cmake tool chain (v2.6 or higher)
    • make
    • Boost Libraries (v1.42 or higher)
    • Ubuntu shortcut:
      sudo apt-get install build-essential libboost-all-dev cmake
      
  • IP module dependencies:
    • PCAP Library (optional, for service discovery)
  • Scribe module dependencies:
    • OpenSSL Library
  • Monitoring Framework dependencies:
    • QT Tools and Libraries (optional, for viewer only)
    • iGraph Library (optional, for viewer only
