| *** With CMake *** | |
| yaml-cpp uses CMake to support cross-platform building. In a UNIX-like system, the basic steps to build are: | |
| 1. Download and install CMake (if you don't have root privileges, just install to a local directory, like ~/bin) | |
| 2. From the source directory, run: | |
| mkdir build | |
| cd build | |
| cmake .. | |
| and then the usual | |
| make | |
| make install | |
| 3. To clean up, just remove the 'build' directory. | |
| *** Without CMake *** | |
| If you don't want to use CMake, just add all .cpp files to a makefile. yaml-cpp does not need any special build settings, so no 'configure' file is necessary. | |
| (Note: this is pretty tedious. It's sooo much easier to use CMake.) |
