cc-common

A collection of helper code for C projects.

This code should not be distributed by itself. It is designed to be integrated into a larger project which itself contains autoconf and automake scripts to drive the build process.

Usage

cc-common is designed to be included in projects as a git submodule.

To use cc-common, loosely do the following:

1. Add cc-common as a git submodule

• git submodule add git://github.com/alistairking/cc-common.git common
• See http://git-scm.com/book/en/Git-Tools-Submodules for more info about working with git submodules.

2. Update the AC_CONFIG_FILES macro in configure.ac to include: common/Makefile, common/libpatricia/Makefile, and common/libcsv/Makefile. For example:

    AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile lib/Makefile
                     tools/Makefile
                     common/Makefile
                     common/libpatricia/Makefile
                     common/libcsv/Makefile
                    ])
   

3. In the main Makefile.am file for your library (usually /lib/Makefile.am), add $(top_builddir)/common/libcccommon.la to the LIBADD variable. For example:

    libsomething_la_LIBADD = $(top_builddir)/common/libcccommon.la
   

4. To include header files directly, you may need to add to the AM_CPPFLAGS variable in the appropriate Makefile.am. For example:

    AM_CPPFLAGS = -I$(top_srcdir) \
                  -I$(top_srcdir)/common/ \
                  -I$(top_srcdir)/common/libpatricia \
                  -I$(top_srcdir)/common/libcsv
   

5. Run autoreconf and configure and you should be all set.
