Once an hour, an automated snapshot is made from the git server

source tree. These snapshots should be usable, but we make no guarantees

about their stability:

<h1>libvirt Application Development Guide</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The guide is both a learning tool for developing with libvirt and an
|
|
API reference document. It is a work in progress, composed by a
|
|
professional author from contributions written by members of the
|
|
libvirt team.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Contributions to the guide are <b>VERY</b> welcome. If you'd like to get
|
|
your name on this and demonstrate your virtualisation prowess, a solid
|
|
contribution to the content here will do it. :)

<h1><a name="installation">libvirt Installation</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<h2><a name="Compilatio">Compiling a release tarball</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
libvirt uses the standard configure/make/install steps:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
gunzip -c libvirt-xxx.tar.gz | tar xvf -
|
|
cd libvirt-xxxx
|
|
./configure --help</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
To see the options, then the compilation/installation proper:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
./configure [possible options]
|
|
make
|
|
make install</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
At that point you may have to rerun ldconfig or a similar utility to
|
|
update your list of installed shared libs.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2><a name="build">Building from a GIT checkout</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The libvirt build process uses GNU autotools, so after obtaining a
|
|
checkout it is necessary to generate the configure script and Makefile.in
|
|
templates using the <code>autogen.sh</code> command, passing the extra
|
|
arguments as for configure. As an example, to do a complete build and
|
|
install it into your home directory run:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
./autogen.sh --prefix=$HOME/usr --enable-compile-warnings=error
|
|
make
|
|
make install</pre>
