CppOpenSourceProjects / RaftLib

C++ Stream Parallel Processing, simple, performant and easy to use.

=============

Build status

CI Test environment:

• Linux - kernel v. 3.13, Ubuntu 5.2.1-23ubuntu1~12.04, (gcc-5.2.1/Clang 3.7), CMake 3.4

Offline testing:

• OS X - El Capitan, Apple LLVM version 7.0.0, CMake 3.4

Pre-requisites

####OS X & Linux Compiler: c++11 capable -> Clang, GNU GCC 4.8+, or Intel icc Libraries:

• Boost, if not installed, needed hearders automatically downloaded with cmake

####Windows In progress

Install

Make a build directory (for the instructions below, we'll write [build]). If you want to build the OpenCV example, then you'll need to have the add

-DBUILD_WOPENCV=true 

to the cmake build line below.

mkdir [build]
cd [build]
cmake ..
make && make test
sudo make install

NOTE: The default prefix in the makefile is

PREFIX ?= /usr/local

###Random Notes The old Makefile had an uninstall script, I need to add an object to the cmake file so that we can have similar functionality. Theres also a bit of cleanup to do as I transition fully from Make to CMake.

A lot of the auto-optimization stuff has been pulled out temporaril while I'm working on cross-platform compatibility. A lot of the low level API calls are well, low level and Linux/Unix/OS X specific so I'm working on building in Windows versions of those specific calls. Should be done in a few weeks.
