How to Build MariaDB server with CMake
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
WHAT YOU NEED
 | 
						|
---------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
CMake version 2.6 or later installed on your system.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
HOW TO INSTALL:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Linux distributions:
 | 
						|
shell> sudo apt-get install cmake
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The above works on Debian/Ubuntu based distributions. On others, the command
 | 
						|
line needs to be modified to e.g "yum install" on Fedora or "zypper install" 
 | 
						|
on OpenSUSE.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
OpenSolaris:
 | 
						|
shell> pfexec pkgadd install SUNWcmake
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Windows and Mac OSX:
 | 
						|
Download and install the latest distribution from 
 | 
						|
http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html
 | 
						|
On Windows, download installer exe file and run it. On MacOS, download
 | 
						|
the .dmg image and open it.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Other Unixes:
 | 
						|
Precompiled packages for other Unix flavors (HPUX, AIX) are available from 
 | 
						|
http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Alternatively, you can build from source, source package is also available on 
 | 
						|
CMake download page.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Compiler Tools
 | 
						|
--------------
 | 
						|
You will need  a working compiler and make utility on your OS. 
 | 
						|
On Windows, install Visual Studio (Express editions will work too). 
 | 
						|
On Mac OSX, install Xcode tools.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
BUILD 
 | 
						|
---------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
Ensure that compiler and cmake are in PATH.
 | 
						|
The following description assumes that current working directory 
 | 
						|
is the source directory. 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Generic build on Unix, using "Unix Makefiles" generator
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
shell>cmake . 
 | 
						|
shell>make
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Note: by default, cmake build is less verbose than automake build. Use 
 | 
						|
"make VERBOSE=1" if you want to see add command lines for each compiled source.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Windows, using "Visual Studio 9 2008" generator
 | 
						|
shell>cmake . -G "Visual Studio 9 2008" 
 | 
						|
shell>devenv MySQL.sln /build /relwithdebinfo
 | 
						|
(alternatively, open MySQL.sln and build using the IDE)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Windows, using "NMake Makefiles" generator
 | 
						|
shell>cmake . -G "NMake Makefiles" 
 | 
						|
shell>nmake
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Mac OSX build with Xcode
 | 
						|
shell>cmake . -G Xcode
 | 
						|
shell>xcodebuild -configuration Relwithdebinfo
 | 
						|
(alternatively, open MySQL.xcodeproj and build using the IDE)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Command line build with CMake 2.8
 | 
						|
After creating project with cmake -G as above, issue
 | 
						|
cmake . --build 
 | 
						|
this works with any  CMake generator.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For Visual Studio and Xcode you might want to add an extra 
 | 
						|
configuration parameter, to avoid building all configurations.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
cmake . --build --config Relwithdebinfo
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Building "out-of-source"
 | 
						|
---------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
Building out-of-source provides additional benefits. For example it allows to 
 | 
						|
build both Release and Debug configurations using the single source tree.Or 
 | 
						|
build the same source with different version of the same compiler or with 
 | 
						|
different compilers. Also you will prevent polluting the source tree with the
 | 
						|
objects and binaries produced during the make. 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Here is an example on how to do it (generic Unix), assuming the source tree is
 | 
						|
in directory named src and the current working directory is source root.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
shell>mkdir ../build # build directory is called build
 | 
						|
shell>cd ../build
 | 
						|
shell>cmake ../src
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Note: if a directory was used for in-source build, out-of-source will 
 | 
						|
not work. To re-enable out-of-source build, remove <source-root>/CMakeCache.txt
 | 
						|
file.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
 | 
						|
---------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
The procedure above will build with default configuration.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Let's you want to change the  configuration parameters and have archive
 | 
						|
storage engine compiled into the server instead of building it as pluggable 
 | 
						|
module.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1)You can provide parameters on the command line, like
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
shell> cmake .  -DWITH_ARCHIVE_STORAGE_ENGINE=1
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This can be done during the initial configuration or any time later.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Note, that parameters are "sticky", that is they are remebered in the CMake 
 | 
						|
cache (CMakeCache.txt file in the build directory)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
2) Configuration using cmake-gui (Windows, OSX, or Linux with cmake-gui 
 | 
						|
installed)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
From the build directory, issue
 | 
						|
shell> cmake-gui .
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Check the WITH_INNOBASE_STORAGE_ENGINE checkbox
 | 
						|
- Click on "Configure" button
 | 
						|
- Click on "Generate" button
 | 
						|
- Close cmake-gui
 | 
						|
shell> make
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
3)Using ccmake (Unix)
 | 
						|
ccmake is curses-based GUI application that provides the same functionality 
 | 
						|
as cmake-gui. It is less user-friendly compared to cmake-gui but works also 
 | 
						|
on exotic Unixes like HPUX, AIX or Solaris.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Besides storage engines, probably the most important parameter from a 
 | 
						|
developer's point of view is CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE (this allows to build server with 
 | 
						|
dbug tracing library and with debug compile flags).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
After changing the configuration, recompile using
 | 
						|
shell> make
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Listing configuration parameters
 | 
						|
---------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
shell> cmake -L 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Gives a brief overview of important configuration parameters (dump to stdout)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
shell> cmake -LH
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Does the same but also provides a short help text for each parameter.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
shell> cmake -LAH 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Dumps all config parameters (including advanced) to the stdout.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
PACKAGING
 | 
						|
---------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
-- Binary distribution --
 | 
						|
Packaging in form of tar.gz archives (or .zip on Windows) is also supported
 | 
						|
To create a tar.gz package, 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1)If you're using "generic" Unix build with makefiles
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
shell> make package
 | 
						|
this will create a tar.gz file in the top level build directory.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
2)On Windows, using  "NMake Makefiles" generator
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
shell> nmake package
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
3)On Windows, using "Visual Studio"  generator
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
shell> devenv mysql.sln /build relwithdebinfo /project package
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Note On Windows, 7Zip or Winzip must be installed and 7z.exe rsp winzip.exe 
 | 
						|
need to be in the PATH.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Another way to build packages is calling cpack executable directly like
 | 
						|
shell> cpack -G TGZ --config CPackConfig.cmake
 | 
						|
(-G TGZ is for tar.gz generator, there is also -GZIP)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-- Source distribution --
 | 
						|
"make dist" target is provided. 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
ADDITIONAL MAKE TARGETS: "make install" AND "make test"
 | 
						|
----------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
install target also provided for Makefile based generators. Installation 
 | 
						|
directory can be controlled using configure-time parameter 
 | 
						|
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX (default is /usr/local. It is also possible to install to
 | 
						|
non-configured directory, using
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
shell> make install DESTDIR="/some/absolute/path"
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
"make test" runs unit tests (uses CTest for it)
 | 
						|
"make test-force" runs mysql-test-run.pl tests with --test-force parameter
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
FOR PROGRAMMERS: WRITING PLATFORM CHECKS
 | 
						|
--------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
If you modify MySQL source and want to add a new platform check,please read 
 | 
						|
http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/CMake_HowToDoPlatformChecks first. In MySQL, most of 
 | 
						|
the platform tests are implemented in configure.cmake and the template header 
 | 
						|
file is config.h.cmake
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Bigger chunks of functionality, for example non-trivial macros are implemented 
 | 
						|
in files <src-root>/cmake subdirectory.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For people with autotools background, it is important to remember CMake does 
 | 
						|
not provide autoheader functionality. That is, when you add a check
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
CHECK_FUNCTION_EXISTS(foo HAVE_FOO)
 | 
						|
to config.cmake, then you will also need to add
 | 
						|
#cmakedefine HAVE_FOO 1
 | 
						|
to config.h.cmake
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Troubleshooting platform checks
 | 
						|
--------------------------------
 | 
						|
If you suspect that a platform check returned wrong result, examine 
 | 
						|
<build-root>/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log and 
 | 
						|
<build-root>/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log
 | 
						|
These files they contain compiler command line, and exact error messages.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Troubleshooting CMake code
 | 
						|
----------------------------------
 | 
						|
While there are advanced flags for cmake like -debug-trycompile and --trace,
 | 
						|
a simple and efficient way to debug to add 
 | 
						|
MESSAGE("interesting variable=${some_invariable}")
 | 
						|
to the interesting places in CMakeLists.txt
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Tips:
 | 
						|
- When using Makefile generator it is easy to examine which compiler flags are 
 | 
						|
used to build. For example, compiler flags for mysqld are in 
 | 
						|
<build-root>/sql/CMakeFiles/mysqld.dir/flags.make and the linker command line
 | 
						|
is in <build-root>/sql/CMakeFiles/mysqld.dir/link.txt
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- CMake caches results of platform checks in CMakeCache.txt. It is a nice 
 | 
						|
feature because tests do not rerun when reconfiguring (e.g when a new test was 
 | 
						|
added).The downside of caching is that when a platform test was wrong and was 
 | 
						|
later corrected, the cached result is still used. If you encounter this 
 | 
						|
situation, which should be a rare occasion, you need either to remove the
 | 
						|
offending entry from CMakeCache.txt (if test was for HAVE_FOO, remove lines 
 | 
						|
containing HAVE_FOO from CMakeCache.txt) or just remove the cache file.
