The FreeLAN libraries build environment

freelan-all

A super-project that includes all FreeLAN related projects and provides scripts to generate installers.

For help regarding the configuration, take a look at the wiki.

Libraries

It contains the following projects:

• libcryptoplus - A C++ wrapper around the OpenSSL cryptographic library.
• libiconvplus - A C++ wrapper around the iconv library.
• libfscp - The FreeLAN Secure Channel protocol and its C++ implementation.
• libasiotap - A C++ library to control virtual network interfaces also known as "TAP adapters".
• libfreelan - The FreeLAN C++ library.
• freelan - The FreeLAN binary.
• freelan-server - The FreeLAN configuration server.
• libkfather - A C++ JSON parser/producer with a terrible name.

To fetch those from their respective repositories, issue the following commands:

git submodule init

git submodule update

And, to get the last revision for each repository:

git submodule foreach git checkout master

Building

You may setup quickly a building environment by calling the appropriate script at tools/<your operating system>/setup-environment.

If no script exists for your operating system, read the instructions in freelan-buildtools/README.md.

This directory contains a SConstruct file which uses the FreeLAN builds tools to build the contained projects.

The default target (freelan) builds and installs all the necessary files for FreeLAN and FreeLAN itself to the environment specified FREELAN_INSTALL_PREFIX (or a OS-dependent default prefix if none is specified).

To do that, just type:

scons

To build everything in the directory (all sub-projects), type instead:

scons build

To build then install everything from the directory (all sub-projects), type instead:

scons install

Windows

You will need Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 to compile freelan. All projects come with a .vcxproj file for all the targets (debug/release and x86/x64).

The root directory also contains a solution file (.sln) that references all the sub-projects.

Graphical User Interface

A graphical user interface is planned but nothing is made public yet. You will just have to be patient :)

Packaging

See the README.md file into the packaging directory.

Does the project have a website ?

You may find the git repository on github.
