INSTALL.md

##Installation

###Linux:

You should get and install libsodium:

git clone git://github.com/jedisct1/libsodium.git
cd libsodium
git checkout tags/0.4.2
./autogen.sh
./configure && make check
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

Then clone this repo and run:

mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..

Then you can build any of the /testing and /other that are currently supported on your platform by running:

make name_of_c_file

For example, to build Messenger_test.c you would run:

make Messenger_test

Or you could just build everything that is supported on your platform by running:

make

###OSX:

Much the same as above, remember to install the latest XCode and the developer tools (Preferences -> Downloads -> Command Line Tools). Users running Mountain Lion and the latest version of XCode (4.6.3) will also need to install libtool Libtool is easy enough to install, grab it from http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/ and:

./configure make sudo make install

Do not install it from macports (or any dependencies for that matter) as they get shoved in the wrong directory and make your life more annoying.

Another thing you may want to install is the latest gcc, this caused me a few problems as XCode from 4.3 no longer includes gcc and instead uses LLVM-GCC, a nice install guide can be found at http://caiustheory.com/install-gcc-421-apple-build-56663-with-xcode-42

###Windows:

You should install:

• MinGW's C compiler
• CMake

Then you should either clone this repo by using git, or just download a zip of current Master branch and extract it somewhere.

After that you should get precompiled packages of libsodium from here and extract the archive into this repo's root. That is, sodium folder should be along with core, testing and other folders.

Navigate in cmd to this repo and run:

mkdir build && cd build
cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" ..

Then you can build any of the /testing and /other that are currently supported on your platform by running:

mingw32-make name_of_c_file

For example, to build Messenger_test.c you would run:

mingw32-make Messenger_test

Or you could just build everything that is supported on your platform by running:

mingw32-make
