How to Build MySQL 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 do Debian/Ubuntu based distributions.On others, 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 Mac, 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 reenable 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 WITH_DEBUG (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 occation, 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.
