How To Compile

Linux

Prerequisites

You will need the following packages: boost, cmake (3.8 or higher), make, and git.

You will also need either GCC/G++, or Clang.

If you are using GCC, you will need GCC-7.0 or higher.

If you are using Clang, you will need Clang 6.0 or higher. You will also need libstdc++-6.0 or higher.

Ubuntu, using GCC

• sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test -y
• sudo apt-get update
• sudo apt-get install aptitude -y
• sudo aptitude install -y build-essential g++-8 gcc-8 git libboost-all-dev python-pip
• sudo pip install cmake
• export CC=gcc-8
• export CXX=g++-8
• git clone -b master --single-branch https://github.com/derogold/derogold
• cd derogold
• mkdir build
• cd build
• cmake ..
• make

The binaries will be in the src folder when you are complete.

• cd src
• ./DeroGoldd --version

Ubuntu, using Clang

• sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test -y
• wget -O - https://apt.llvm.org/llvm-snapshot.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -

You need to modify the below command for your version of ubuntu - see https://apt.llvm.org/

• Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty)

• sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://apt.llvm.org/trusty/ llvm-toolchain-trusty 6.0 main"

• Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial)

• sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://apt.llvm.org/xenial/ llvm-toolchain-xenial 6.0 main"

• Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic)

• sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://apt.llvm.org/bionic/ llvm-toolchain-bionic 6.0 main"

• sudo apt-get update

• sudo apt-get install aptitude -y

• sudo aptitude install -y -o Aptitude::ProblemResolver::SolutionCost='100*canceled-actions,200*removals' build-essential clang-6.0 libstdc++-7-dev git libboost-all-dev python-pip

• sudo pip install cmake

• export CC=clang-6.0

• export CXX=clang++-6.0

• git clone -b master --single-branch https://github.com/derogold/derogold

• cd derogold

• mkdir build

• cd build

• cmake ..

• make

The binaries will be in the src folder when you are complete.

• cd src
• ./DeroGoldd --version

Generic Linux

Ensure you have the dependencies listed above.

If you want to use clang, ensure you set the environment variables CC and CXX. See the ubuntu instructions for an example.

• git clone -b master --single-branch https://github.com/derogold/derogold
• cd derogold
• mkdir build
• cd build
• cmake ..
• make

The binaries will be in the src folder when you are complete.

• cd src
• ./DeroGoldd --version

OSX/Apple, using GCC

Prerequisites

• Install XCode and Developer Tools.

Building

• which brew || /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
• brew install --force cmake boost llvm gcc@8
• export CC=gcc-8
• export CXX=g++-8
• git clone -b master --single-branch https://github.com/derogold/derogold
• cd derogold
• mkdir build
• cd build
• cmake ..
• make

The binaries will be in the src folder when you are complete.

• cd src
• ./DeroGoldd --version

OSX/Apple, using Clang

Prerequisites

• Install XCode and Developer Tools.

Building

• which brew || /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
• brew install --force cmake boost llvm
• export CC=/usr/local/opt/llvm/bin/clang
• export CXX=/usr/local/opt/llvm/bin/clang++
• git clone -b master --single-branch https://github.com/derogold/derogold
• cd derogold
• mkdir build
• cd build
• cmake ..
• make

The binaries will be in the src folder when you are complete.

• cd src
• ./DeroGoldd --version

Windows

Prerequisites

• Install Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition
• When installing Visual Studio, it is required that you install Desktop development with C++
• Install the latest version of Boost - Currently Boost 1.68.

Building

• From the start menu, open 'x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for vs2017'.
• cd <your_dero_gold_directory>
• mkdir build
• cd build
• set PATH="C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\Common7\IDE\CommonExtensions\Microsoft\CMake\CMake\bin";%PATH%
• cmake -G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64" .. -DBOOST_ROOT=C:/local/boost_1_68_0

If you have errors on this step about not being able to find the following static libraries, you may need to update your cmake. Open 'Visual Studio Installer' and click 'Update'.

• MSBuild DeroGold.sln /p:Configuration=Release /m

The binaries will be in the src/Release folder when you are complete.

• cd src
• cd Release
• DeroGoldd.exe --version

Raspberry Pi 3 B+ (AARCH64/ARM64)

The following images are known to work. Your operation system image MUST be 64 bit.

Known working images

• https://github.com/Crazyhead90/pi64/releases
• https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Raspberry_Pi#aarch64_supported_images_for_Raspberry_Pi_3
• https://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv8/broadcom/raspberry-pi-3

Once you have a 64 bit image installed, setup proceeds the same as any Linux distribution. Ensure you have at least 2GB of ram, or the build is likely to fail. You may need to setup swap space.

Building

• git clone -b master --single-branch https://github.com/derogold/derogold
• cd derogold
• mkdir build
• cd build
• cmake ..
• make

The binaries will be in the src folder when you are complete.

• cd src
• ./DeroGoldd --version
