Gaffer Dependencies

This project contains the source code for all the 3rd party libraries required to build Gaffer. It is intended to help Gaffer developers get up and running as quickly as possible, and secondarily to provide a record of exactly which dependencies were used for each release of Gaffer, and how they were built.

Usage

We provide prebuilt binary releases, which should be used in conjunction with Gaffer's build instructions.

Building

We strongly recommend using the precompiled binaries as described above, but if you really like building multiple huge software projects, read on!

Prerequisites

Since the build covers so many different projects, it requires the installation of several common software development tools, most of which should be installed by default on a typical developer machine. They include (but are probably not limited to) :

  • Make
  • CMake
  • SCons
  • libbz2 (and headers)

Invoking the build

The build is controlled by several environment variables, which must be set up before running :

  • BUILD_DIR : Path to a directory where the build will be performed
  • ARNOLD_ROOT : Path to the root of an Arnold installation
  • RMAN_ROOT : Path to the root of a 3delight installation

The build is then initiated using a bash script, which should be run from the root directory of the project :

./build/buildAll.sh

Dependencies can be built individually using the other scripts in the build directory, for instance TBB is built as follows :

./build/buildTBB.sh
