INSTALLING AND BUILDING THE LLRP Tool Kit for C++ Last updated 28 Jan 2008

INTRODUCTION ============

These are the instructions for obtaining and building the LLRP Tool Kit for C++ (LTKCPP) on Linux and on Windows Visual Studio.

The most recent versions of and news about the LLRP Tool Kit is available on SourceForge.net

http://sourceforge.net/projects/llrp-toolkit/

LINUX PREREQUISITES ===================

You need: 1) A Linux system 2) gcc(1) and make(1) installed including the C++ libraries and header files 3) The LTK distribution

WINDOWS PREREQUISITES =====================

You need: Widows XP or later Visual Studio 2003 or later xlstproc.exe (http://www.zlatkovic.com/libxml.en.html) The LTK distribution

OBTAIN THE LTK DISTRIBUTION USING ANONYMOUS CVS FROM LINUX ==========================================================

Using anonymous CVS, obtain the LLRP Tool Kit distribution from SourceForge.net

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@llrp-toolkit.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/llrp-toolkit login

[press ENTER when prompted for the password]

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@llrp-toolkit.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/llrp-toolkit co -P LTK

OBTAIN THE LTK DISTRIBUTION AS A ZIP FILE =========================================

TODO

BUILD ON LINUX ==============

cd LTK/LTKCPP make

VERIFICATION ON LINUX =====================

Try dx101, the stand-alone self-test. It needs no reader.

cd LTK/LTKCPP/Tests sh RUN101

Expect this output

./dx101 ../../Tests/dx101/dx101_a_in.bin > dx101_out.tmp PASSED

If you have a LLRP reader available, you may want to try dx201

cd LTK/LTKCPP/Tests dx201 -v MyReaderHostName

or try example1

cd LTK/LTKCPP/Examples example1 -v MyReaderHostName

BUILD ON WINDOWS VISUAL STUDIO ==============================

Start a command (DOS prompt) Window

Run the script that generates code. This needs xsltproc.exe. See notes inside of gencode.bat for obtaining xsltproc.exe. It's easy and free of charge.

cd LTK gencode.bat

Use the Windows explorer to find folder

LKT

Double click on the Solution file

VS_LTKCPP.sln

Visual Studio should start

Click on the Build menu, then click on menu entry Build Solution

VERIFICATION ON WINDOWS =======================

Start a command (DOS prompt) Window

Try dx101, the stand-alone self-test. It needs no reader.

cd LTK

Run this command

dx101 ..\..\..\...bin

All this can do is show you that the build of dx101 succeeded. The output should textually compare to .......txt. But there is no ready utility to do the comparisson.

If you have a LLRP reader available, you may want to try dx201

cd LTK dx201 /v MyReaderHostName

or try example1

cd LTK example1 /v MyReaderHostName
