Prerequisites
For fetching and building Yate from SVN you will need the following:
- Basic software development tools:
- Package build-essential is required for building Debian packages.
apt-get install build-essential
The following NEW packages will be installed:
build-essential dpkg-dev g++ g++-4.4 libalgorithm-diff-perl libalgorithm-diff-xs-perl libalgorithm-merge-perl libdpkg-perl
libstdc++6-4.4-dev libtimedate-perl
- The autoconf configuration script builder.
apt-get install autoconf
The following NEW packages will be installed:
autoconf automake autotools-dev
- A subversion(svn) client.
apt-get install subversion
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libapr1 libaprutil1 libserf-0-0 libsvn1 subversion
- Development libraries for all optional modules in Yate you want to compile.
- If you want to register users in a database you need libraries like MySQL or PostgreSQL.
- H323 channel module - VoIP H.323 driver requires the OpenH323 Library.
- Fax Transfer Module - this module can transmit or receive a fax, is based on spandsp.
- Read more about them in modules page.
Get the sources
Once you have the svn client installed getting the sources is a simple command:
cd /usr/src svn checkout http://voip.null.ro/svn/yate/trunk yate cd yate
This will fetch a copy of the SVN TRUNK in a new directory called yate.
Prepare and configure the sources
./autogen.sh Finished! Now run configure. If in doubt run ./configure --help
This script will warn if autoconf is missing and will prepare a configure script for you if everything is OK.
You can now run the configure script:
./configure checking for local operating system type... Linux checking for libraries directory name... lib checking for g++... g++ ...
Look at the configure output and check that all features you need are detected. If not, install what is missing.
Compile the sources
Use make command:
make make -C ./engine all make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/yate/engine' g++ -Wall -I.. -I.. -O2 -fno-check-new -fno-exceptions -fPIC -DHAVE_GCC_FORMAT_CHECK -DHAVE_BLOCK_RETURN -DATOMIC_OPS -c TelEngine.cpp g++ -Wall -I.. -I.. -O2 -fno-check-new -fno-exceptions -fPIC -DHAVE_GCC_FORMAT_CHECK -DHAVE_BLOCK_RETURN -c ObjList.cpp g++ -Wall -I.. -I.. -O2 -fno-check-new -fno-exceptions -fPIC -DHAVE_GCC_FORMAT_CHECK -DHAVE_BLOCK_RETURN -c HashList.cpp ........
Starting Yate
Check version of Yate:
./run -V Yate 4.2.1 alpha1
Start Yate:
./run -vvvvvv -CDo ... Yate engine is initialized and starting up on debian ...
Next step will be to learn more about configuration files and the modules to configure Yate for your needs.
