Build

To build CastXML from source, first obtain the prerequisites:

• A C++ compiler supporting the c++11 standard language level.
• CMake cross-platform build system generator.
• LLVM/Clang compiler SDK install tree built using the C++ compiler. This version of CastXML has been tested with LLVM/Clang
  • Git master as of 2025-04-08 (25e08c0b9c)
  • Release 20.1
  • Release 19.1
  • Release 18.1
  • Release 17.0
  • Release 16.0
  • Release 15.0
  • Release 14.0
  • Release 13.0
  • Release 12.0
  • Release 11.0
  • Release 10.0
  • Release 9.0
  • Release 8.0
  • Release 7.0
  • Release 6.0
  • Release 5.0
  • Release 4.0
  • Release 3.9
  • Release 3.8
  • Release 3.7
  • Release 3.6
• Optionally, the Sphinx documentation generator to build documentation.

Run CMake on the CastXML source tree to generate a build tree using a C++ compiler compatible with that used to build the LLVM/Clang SDK. CMake options include:

Clang_DIR

Location of the LLVM/Clang SDK. Set to <prefix>/lib/cmake/clang, where <prefix> is the top of the LLVM/Clang SDK install tree. Alternatively, LLVM_DIR may be set to <prefix>/lib/cmake/llvm.

SPHINX_EXECUTABLE

Location of the sphinx-build executable. Required only if building documentation.

SPHINX_HTML

Build documentation in html format.

SPHINX_MAN

Build documentation in man format.

Run the corresponding native build tool (e.g. make) in the CastXML build tree, and optionally build the install target. The castxmlcommand-line tool may be used either from the build tree or the install tree. The install tree is relocatable.
