Building Apache log4cxx

The project supports different build tools on different platforms, have a look at the menu to find the platform you need. If your environment is not covered already, feel free to ask about it on one of the Mailing Lists or leave a bug in our Issue Tracker. In this case it would be very helpful of course if you could already provide some patches to support your environment or at least provide some technical details about the build tools, compiler etc. you use.

Covered by the team

The following list provides an overview about the environments some of the team members have access to and therefore normally should work out of the box or at least were used sometimes in the past. This list by no means tells something about how good the support on each platform is, it's just a guide.

The following platforms/compilers are expected to work correctly:

  • Windows 10(32 and 64-bit) - MSVC
  • Windows 10(32-bit) - Embarcadero C++ Builder XE 4
  • Debian 10(32 and 64-bit) - gcc 8.3.0, clang-7
  • Ubuntu 20.04(32 and 64-bit) - gcc, clang
  • Mac OSX - clang

Various Linux distributions already have log4cxx as part of their package managers - consult the documentation for your distribution to determine if a package already exists.
