Abstract¶
This is the draft documentation of the nexiles|gateway C API build process.
Note
for now we’ll develop on the mac. We’ll move to Windows as soon as we’ve sorted the issues with the Windows 7 SDK out.
Test Programs¶
The development source tree in src/c-api contains a makefile which builds the c-api library and several test programs. These have lots of assertions in it and they need to run without errors on each target platform.
The test program does a request to the author’s development Windchill machine – this will likely fail on a different computer. This should probably fixed.
Building¶
To build the library, the examples and the test programs, do:
$ workon nexiles.tools.api
$ cd src/c-api
$ make
External Libraries Used¶

The install prefix for all development libs is the build directory.
