Installation ============ The process required to install JasPer is described below. Installation on Systems Running Unix ------------------------------------ In what follows, let $SOURCE_DIR denote the top-level directory of the JasPer software source tree (i.e., the directory containing the files named LICENSE and INSTALL) and let $INSTALL_DIR denote the target directory for installation. To build the software, the following steps are required (in order): 1. Select an empty directory to use for building the software. Let $BUILD_DIR denote this directory. 2. Configure the software using CMake. To do this, invoke the command: cmake -H$SOURCE_DIR -B$BUILD_DIR -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$INSTALL_DIR \ $OPTIONS where $OPTIONS corresponds to zero or more -D options as described below under the heading "Cmake Options". This process allows important information about the system configuration to be determined. Unless you know what you are doing (or have problems with the default build settings), it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that you not override the default build settings. 3. Build the software using CMake. To do this, invoke the command: cmake --build $BUILD_DIR (Assuming that the build operation was successful, the executables for the JasPer application programs should be located in the directory $BUILD_DIR/src/app.) 4. Run the test suite to ensure that the software seems to be working correctly. To do this, invoke the commands: cd $BUILD_DIR ctest --output-on-failure 5. Install the software (i.e., the library, application programs, header files, and other auxiliary data). To do this, invoke the command: cmake --build $BUILD_DIR --target install This step may require special (e.g., administrator) privileges depending on the target directory for installation. (On Unix-based systems, the default installation directory is typically under usr/local.) Assuming that the software was installed successfully, the executables for the JasPer application programs should be found somewhere under the $CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX directory (e.g., $CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX/bin). Additional Remarks: When building the JasPer software under Mac OSX, only the use of the native framework for OpenGL is officially supported. If the Freeglut library is installed on your system, you will need to ensure that the native GLUT library (as opposed to the Freeglut library) is used by the build process. This can be accomplished by adding an extra option to the cmake command line that resembles the following: -DGLUT_glut_LIBRARY=/System/Library/Frameworks/GLUT.framework Installation on Systems Running Microsoft Windows ------------------------------------------------- In what follows, let %SOURCE_DIR% denote the top-level directory of the JasPer software source tree (i.e., the directory containing the files named LICENSE and INSTALL) and let %INSTALL_DIR% denote the target directory for installation. 1) Select an empty directory to use for building the software. Let %BUILD_DIR% denote this directory. 2) Generate the project file needed to build the software with Microsoft Visual Studio. To do this, invoke the command: cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 2013 Win64" -H%SOURCE_DIR% -B%BUILD_DIR% ^ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=%INSTALL_DIR% %OPTIONS% where %OPTIONS% corresponds to zero or more -D options as described below under the heading "Cmake Options". (Note the caret symbol "^" above denotes line continuation.) 3) Build and install the software. To do this, invoke the command: msbuild %build_dir%\INSTALL.vcxproj Other Remarks ------------- In some cases, it may be necessary to explicitly disable the use of the IJG JPEG library (i.e., libjpeg). This is accomplished through a CMake configuration option. (See the "CMake Options" section below.) For example, such action may be required if the version of the JPEG library installed on your system is not compatible with the version of JasPer being built. Also, when building under the Cygwin environment, it may be necessary to explicitly disable the use of the JPEG library. In some situations, it may be necessary to explicitly disable the use of the OpenGL libraries. This is accomplished through a CMake configuration option. (See the "CMake Options" section below.) CMake Options ------------- The option OPTION can be set to the value VALUE with a command-line option of the form -DOPTION=VALUE The following options are supported: CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX Specify the installation directory. Value: A directory name. CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE Specify the build type (i.e., release or debug). Valid values: Debug or Release JAS_ENABLE_MULTITHREADING_SUPPORT Specify if the library should include multithreading support. Valid values: true and false JAS_PREFER_PTHREAD Specify if the POSIX Threads library should be preferred over native C11 threading support. Valid values: true and false JAS_ENABLE_PROGRAMS Specify if the demo application programs should be built/installed. Valid values: true and false JAS_ENABLE_DOC Enable the building of the documentation (which requires LaTeX). Valid values: true and false JAS_ENABLE_LIBJPEG Enable the use of the JPEG library Valid values: true and false JAS_ENABLE_OPENGL Enable the use of the OpenGL and GLUT libraries. Valid values: true and false JAS_ENABLE_SHARED Enable the building of shared libraries. Valid values: true or false JAS_ENABLE_HIDDEN Hide internal symbols? Enabling this results in a smaller binary. Valid values: true or false JAS_ENABLE_32BIT Force the use of 32 bit integers? On 64 bit CPUs, JasPer historically used 64 bit integers which consumes more memory, is slower and has no advantages. This produces a different ABI, so the resulting library is not compatible with other builds. Valid values: true or false JAS_DEFAULT_MAX_MEM_USAGE Specify the maximum amount of memory (in bytes) that may be used by the library. This value is only a default and can be overridden at run time. Valid value: a (strictly) positive integer JAS_INCLUDE_BMP_CODEC JAS_INCLUDE_JP2_CODEC JAS_INCLUDE_JPC_CODEC JAS_INCLUDE_JPG_CODEC JAS_INCLUDE_MIF_CODEC JAS_INCLUDE_PGX_CODEC JAS_INCLUDE_PNM_CODEC JAS_INCLUDE_RAS_CODEC Include support for the specified codec in the library. (This support can still be disabled at run time.) Valid values: true or false JAS_ENABLE_BMP_CODEC JAS_ENABLE_JP2_CODEC JAS_ENABLE_JPC_CODEC JAS_ENABLE_JPG_CODEC JAS_ENABLE_MIF_CODEC JAS_ENABLE_PGX_CODEC JAS_ENABLE_PNM_CODEC JAS_ENABLE_RAS_CODEC Enable support for the specified codec by default at run time. Valid values: true or false JAS_ENABLE_ASAN Enable the Address Sanitizer. Valid values: true or false JAS_ENABLE_UBSAN Enable the Undefined-Behavior Sanitizer. Valid values: true or false JAS_ENABLE_LSAN Enable the Leak Sanitizer. Valid values: true or false JAS_ENABLE_MSAN Enable the Memory Sanitizer. Valid values: true or false
