Closes #2279. Configures CMake to enable C++11, build static libaries and only build cpp bindings with minimal dependencies. Documentation, examples, tests and other language bindings are no longer built. CMake will no longer try to find commands and packages which are not required for building the target. |

Usage
To build dependencies for the current arch+OS:
make
To build for another arch/OS:
make HOST=host-platform-triplet
For example:
make HOST=x86_64-w64-mingw32 -j4
A prefix will be generated that's suitable for plugging into Bitcoin's configure. In the above example, a dir named x86_64-w64-mingw32 will be created. To use it for Bitcoin:
./configure --prefix=`pwd`/depends/x86_64-w64-mingw32
Common host-platform-triplets
for cross compilation are:
i686-w64-mingw32
for Win32x86_64-w64-mingw32
for Win64x86_64-apple-darwin11
for MacOSXarm-linux-gnueabihf
for Linux ARM
No other options are needed, the paths are automatically configured.
Dependency Options: The following can be set when running make: make FOO=bar
SOURCES_PATH: downloaded sources will be placed here
BASE_CACHE: built packages will be placed here
SDK_PATH: Path where sdk's can be found (used by OSX)
FALLBACK_DOWNLOAD_PATH: If a source file can't be fetched, try here before giving up
NO_WALLET: Don't download/build/cache libs needed to enable the wallet
NO_UPNP: Don't download/build/cache packages needed for enabling upnp
DEBUG: disable some optimizations and enable more runtime checking
If some packages are not built, for example make NO_WALLET=1
, the appropriate
options will be passed to bitcoin's configure. In this case, --disable-wallet
.
Additional targets:
download: run 'make download' to fetch all sources without building them
download-osx: run 'make download-osx' to fetch all sources needed for osx builds
download-win: run 'make download-win' to fetch all sources needed for win builds
download-linux: run 'make download-linux' to fetch all sources needed for linux builds
