• Build Instructions
  • 1. Building for Ubuntu desktop
    • Minimum Requirements
    • Creating a DALi Environment
    • Building the Repository
    • Build target options
    • Building and executing test cases
  • 2. GBS Builds
    • NON-SMACK Targets
    • SMACK enabled Targets
    • DEBUG Builds

• Ubuntu 14.04 or later

To build for desktop first ensure ALL sources are selected:

• Go to Ubuntu Settings and then to "Software & Updates"
• In the "Ubuntu Software" tab, ensure ALL software sources are ticked

(This is required because we install some community-maintained free & open-source software)

Then you can create a dali-env folder in your home folder with:

     $ dali-core/build/scripts/dali_env -c

This will also download any dependencies that the dali repositories require.

You can save the environment variables to a file:

     $ dali-env/opt/bin/dali_env -s > setenv

This process only needs to be done once.

Next source these variables:

     $ . setenv

You will have to source these variables every time you open up a new terminal (or you can add to .bashrc if you prefer).

To build the repository enter the 'build/tizen' folder:

     $ cd dali-core/build/tizen

Then run the following commands:

     $ autoreconf --install
     $ ./configure --prefix=$DESKTOP_PREFIX
     $ make install -j8

OpenGL ES context:

When building, the OpenGL ES version of the target should be specified.

Valid version options are 20, 30, 31

With configure: Add: --enable-gles=X

With gbs: Add to the gbs build line: --define "%target_gles_version X"

See the README.md in dali-core/automated-tests.

     $ gbs build -A [TARGET_ARCH]

     $ gbs build -A [TARGET_ARCH] --define "%enable_dali_smack_rules 1"

     $ gbs build -A [TARGET_ARCH] --define "%enable_debug 1"
