Pascal Bach commented on THRIFT-2571: ------------------------------------- Is the issue with libevent or with thrift? I'm not familiar with the event-config.h and why it is needed? I saw thet libevent also supports CMake, maybe building it this way might help. > Simplify cross compilation using CMake > -------------------------------------- > > Key: THRIFT-2571 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-2571 > Project: Thrift > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Compiler (General) > Affects Versions: 1.0 > Reporter: Pascal Bach > Assignee: Henrique Mendonça > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.9.2 > > > Using CMake would simplify cross compilation. > The for example the same build script can be used to build: > - Native for Linux using GCC > - Native for Windows using Visual Studio > - Cross compile for ARM on Linux > - Cross compile for Windows form Linux using mingw32 > It also makes it easy to generate project files for Eclipse or Visual Studio. > h2. Some examples: > {code:title=Create an eclipse project|borderStyle=solid} > mkdir build_ec && cd build_ec > cmake -G "Eclipse CDT4 - Unix Makefiles" ../compiler/cpp > make > {code} > Now open the folder build_ec using eclipse. > {code:title=Create a Visual Studio project (Windows only)|borderStyle=solid} > mkdir build_vs && cd build_vs > cmake -G "Visual Studio 12" ../compiler/cpp > {code} > Now open the folder build_vs using Visual Studio. > {code:title=Cross compile using mingw32|borderStyle=solid} > mkdir build_mingw32 && cd build_mingw32 > cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../contrib/mingw32-toolchain.cmake > ../compiler/cpp > make > {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
