Install

Here are some installation instructions.

Prerequisites

Before you can build libevdevxx, make sure you have:

• A C++20 compiler.
• libevdev version 1.10 or above.
• Optional: Doxygen (for building the documentation)

Getting the source

From a tarball

If you downloaded the tarball, simply extract it with a command like:

tar xvf libevdevxx-XYZ.tar.gz

where XYZ is the version.

From the repository

When obtaining the source code from the repository, you will need to generate the configure script, by running the bootstrap script:

./bootstrap

Building

Since libevdevxx uses Automake, the usual Automake steps apply:

./configure
make
sudo make install

For more details, see the file INSTALL or run ./configure --help.
