libcmyth is a library implemented in C that allows you to communicate with a MythTV backend. The build is controlled with scons, and there are several build targets available (the default target will just build the code): cscope - build a cscope database doxygen - build doxygen documentation all - build the code, cscope, and doxygen install - build and install the code To build a target: $ scons <target> To cleanup a target: $ scons -c <target> To specify an install prefix: $ PREFIX=<path> scons install To specify a compiler other than gcc: $ CC=<compiler> scons $ CROSS=<cross compiler prefix> scons
