HowTo Run the HAMcast prototype


Middleware

Before you can start any other software, that uses HAMcast API and stack, you must configure and start the HAMcast middleware. To configure the HAMcast middleware see [config here].


Programs and Tools

All software based on the common multicast API and network stack provided by HAMcast need its library (libhamcast) and a running middleware (see above). If you have not installed libhamcast to standard folders, e.g. /usr/lib/, you must specifiy the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH pointing to libhamcast path.

To do so, run:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<path-to-libhamcast>
./<program>

or

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<path-to-libhamcast> ./<program>

Also check the README file of the program for further information on requirements and instructions. Most of our tools provide usage and help infos, run ./<program> -h.
