Overview:
=========
This is the README file of SDHLibrary-CPP, the C++ library to access
an SDH (SCHUNK Dexterous Hand).
Directory structure:
====================
This directory contains the overall Makefile and sub directories:
- ./bin/ : location of the compiled library and demo programs
- ./demo/ : C++ source code of some demonstration programs that use the library
- ./doc/ : pregenerated documentation (pdf and html)
- ./sdh/ : C++ source and header files for the library itself
- ./vcc/ : project files for Visual Studio C++
Usage instructions:
===================
The following instructions below are for Cygwin and Linux environments.
If you have to use Visual Studio C++, please read ./vcc/README.txt.
Build:
------
To build the library and demo-programs run
> make build
in this directory. Then you can call the demonstration programs in
./bin/ directly. If you generated a shared library then you have to
add the generated files to your pathsfirst. Use the sdhsetenv script in the
parent-directory of this directory to set the paths. That script must
be sourced-in like in:
> cd .. ; source sdhsetenv
To ease the usage of the library in your own programs you should install it:
Install:
--------
To install the library and demo-programs run
> make install
in this direcory. Adjust INSTALL_PREFIX in ./Makefile to install to another
directory than /usr/local. See there for additional settings.
- The static or shared library is installed in $INSTALL_PREFIX/lib/.
- The headers are installed in $INSTALL_PREFIX/include/sdh/.
- The demo programs are installed in $INSTALL_PREFIX/bin/
- The documentation is installed in /usr/share/doc/SDHLibrary-CPP
Uninstall:
----------
To uninstall the library, demo-programs and documentation run
> make uninstall
in this directory.
Further info:
=============
See the demo programs in ./demo/ and the documentation in ./doc/ on how to
use the offered functionality.
