INSTALLING
==========
AMQP-CPP comes with an optional Linux-only TCP module that takes care of the network part required for the AMQP-CPP core library.
If you are on some kind of Linux environment, installing the library is as easy
There are two methods to compile AMQP-CPP: CMake and Make. CMake is platform portable, but the Makefile only works on Linux. After building there are two relevant files to include when using the library.
File|Include when?
----|------------
amqpcpp.h|Always
amqpcpp/linux_tcp.h|If using the Linux-only TCP module
## CMake
The CMake file supports both building and installing. You can choose not to use the install functionality, and instead manually use the build output at `bin/`. Keep in mind that the TCP module is only supported for Linux. An example install method would be:
``` bash
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. [-DBUILD_SHARED] [-DLINUX_TCP]
cmake --build .. --target install
```
Option|Default|Meaning
------|-------|-------
BUILD_SHARED|OFF|Static lib(ON) or shared lib(OFF)?
LINUX_TCP|OFF|Should the Linux-only TCP module be built?
## Make
Installing the library is as easy
as running `make` and `make install`. This will install the full version of
the AMQP-CPP, including the system specific TCP module. If you do not need the
additional TCP module (because you take care of handling the network stuff
yourself), you can also compile a pure form of the library. Use `make pure`
and `make install` for that.
For users on a non-Linux environment: this library is known to work on your
environment too (after all, it does not do any operating specific system calls),
but it might take some extra effort to get your compiler to compile it. Please
send in your pull requests once you have it running, so that others can benefit
from your experiences.
When you compile an application that uses the AMQP-CPP library, do not
forget to link with the library. For gcc and clang the linker flag is -lamqpcpp.
If you use the fullblown version of AMQP-CPP (with the TCP module), you also
