2.3. Building Connext DDS Micro

This section is for users who are already familiar with CMake and may have built earlier versions of Connext DDS Micro. The sections following describe the process in detail and are recommended for everyone building Connext DDS Micro.

This section assumes that the Connext DDS Micro source-bundle has been downloaded and installed and that CMake is available.

1. Make sure CMake is in the path.

2. Run rtime-make.

   On UNIX® systems:

   cd <rti_me install directory>
   # you should see directories like doc/ lib/ rtiddsgen/ src/
   # and CMakeLists.txt
   
   resource/scripts/rtime-make --target self --name i86Linux4gcc7.3.0 \
               -G "Unix Makefiles" --build
   

   On Windows® systems:

   cd <rti_me install directory>
   # you should see directories like doc/ lib/ rtiddsgen/ src/
   # and CMakeLists.txt
   
   resource\scripts\rtime-make --target self --name i86Win32VS2015 \
               -G "NMake Makefiles" --build
   

3. You will find the Connext DDS Micro libraries here:

   On UNIX-based systems:

   # <rti_me install directory>/lib/i86Linux4gcc7.3.0
   

   On Windows systems:

   # <rti_me install directory>/lib/i86Win32VS2015
   

NOTE: rtime-make uses the platform specified with --name to determine a few settings needed by Connext DDS Micro. Please refer to Preparing for a Build for details.
