To checkout the latest, use +this command: + + $ git clone git://gnuradio.org/gnuradio + +For information about using Git, please see: +http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/DevelopingWithGit + + +How to Build GNU Radio: + +For more complete instructions, see the "Building GNU Radio" page in +the GNU Radio manual (can be built or found online at +http://gnuradio.org/doc/doxygen/page_build.html). + +See these steps fow a quick build guide. + + (1) Ensure that you've satisfied the external dependencies. These + dependencies are listed in the manual's build page and are not + presented here to reduce duplication errors. + + On systems using pkgsrc (e.g. NetBSD and Dragonfly), build + meta-packages/gnuradio, which will build a previous release and + force installation of the dependencies. Then pkg_delete the + gnuradio package, which will leave the dependencies. (This + should also work on OSX.) + + See the wiki at http://gnuradio.org for details. + + + (2) Building from cmake: + + $ mkdir $(builddir) + $ cd $(builddir) + $ cmake [OPTIONS] $(srcdir) + $ make + $ make test + $ sudo make install + + +That's it! + +Options: +Useful options include setting the install prefix and the build type: + + -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<directory to install to> + -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="<type>" + +Currently, GNU Radio has a "Debug" type that builds with '-g -O2' +useful for debugging the software and a "Release" type that builds +with '-O3', which is the default. + + +------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + + KNOWN INCOMPATIBILITIES + + + GNU Radio triggers bugs in g++ 3.3 for X86. DO NOT USE GCC 3.3 on + the X86 platform. g++ 3.2, 3.4, and the 4.* series are known to work well. + +------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + + NOTES + +------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +To run the examples you may need to set PYTHONPATH. Note that the +prefix and python version number in the path needs to match your +installed version of python. + + $ export PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages + +You may want to add this to your shell init file (~/.bash_profile if +you use bash). + + +Another handy trick if for example your fftw includes and libs are +installed in, say ~/local/include and ~/local/lib, instead of +/usr/local is this: + + $ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$HOME/local/lib + $ make CPPFLAGS="-I$HOME/local/include" + + +Sometimes the prerequisites are installed in a location which is not +included in the default compiler and linker search paths. This +happens with pkgsrc and NetBSD. To build, tell configure to use these +locations: + + LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib -R/usr/pkg/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" ./configure --prefix=/usr/gnuradio + + +------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + + Legal Matters + +------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Some files have been changed many times throughout the +years. Copyright notices at the tops of these files list which years +changes have been made. For some files, changes have occurred in many +consecutive years. These files may often have the format of a year +range (e.g., "2006 - 2011"), which indicates that these files have had +copyrightable changes made during each year in the range, inclusive. + |
