Currently it is not possible to cleanly install multiple major version
of FreeRDP concurrently as some of the development libraries (.so files)
files can conflict.
This change renames all libraries to include the major version number in
the library name to fix this limitation.
The list of changed libraries:
libwinpr-tools.so -> libwinpr-tools2.so
libwinpr.so -> libwinpr2.so
libfreerdp.so -> libfreerdp2.so
libfreerdp-client.so -> libfreerdp-client2.so
libfreerdp-shadow.so -> libfreerdp-shadow2.so
libfreerdp-server.so -> libfreerdp-server2.so
libfreerdp-shadow-subsystem.so -> libfreerdp-shadow-subsystem2.so
libuwac.so -> libuwac0.so
As the library names have changed, projects that use FreeRDP will need to
update their dependencies. -
If pkg-config or cmake find modules are used, reconfiguration might be
sufficient.
Fixes#3460
If a target is linked against libraries with cmake
(target_link_libraries) and the libraries are not marked as PRIVATE
they are "exported" and in case a other target is linked against this
target it is also linked against *all* (not private) libraries.
Without declaring private libraries PRIVATE a lot of over linking
(linking against unneeded libraries) was done.
With this commit the "exported" components (usable with pkg-config and
cmake find module package)
* winpr - winpr library and headers
* freerdp - core library and headers
* freerdp-client - client specific library
* freerdp-server - server specific library
* rdtk - rdtk headers and library
To allow the installation of multiple different version (different major
number) the include files were moved into the respective sub folder:
freerdp -> freerdp{MAJOR}/freerdp (currently freerdp2/freerdp/)
winpr -> winpr{MAJOR}/winpr (currently winrp1/winpr/)
rdtk -> rdpk{MAJOR}/rdtk (currently rdtk0/rdtk/
The generated pkg-config and cmake find modules now also include the major
version number. Currently the following pkg-config are generated and
installed.
* winpr1
* freerdp2
* freerdp-server2
* freerdp-client2
* rdtk0
As cmake is able to handle multiple versions out of the box the
following can be used to find a specific module:
find_package(WinPR)
find_package(FreeRDP)
find_package(FreeRDP-Server)
find_package(FreeRDP-Client)
find_package(RdTk)
As cmake doesn't automatically resolve dependencies for packages it is
necessary to manually include the requirements. For example if
FreeRDP-Client is required WinPR and FreeRDP need to be included
(find_package) as well.
This commit also fixes the installation when STATIC_CHANNELS are built.
WITH STATIC_CHANNELS all channels are linked into libfreerdp-client, for
this all channels are generated as linker archive and linked together in
the final step. Before the intermediate linker archives were, although
not required and useful, installed. Same applies for server side
channels.
It's unclear why this option would be necessary, and it causes problems
when people do not match it to their toolchain and CFLAGS.
To set the float abi, either use a toolchain with an appropriate default
or set the float-abi option in the CFLAGS environment variable.
This should resolve#2586.
"libfreerdp" consisted of multiple (small) single libraries. If the cmake
option MONOLITHIC was used only one library was build combining all of
the libfreerdp-* libraries.
The only exceptions to this are libfreerdp-server and libfreerdp-client these
are build as separate libraries.
This commit obsoltes non-monolithic builds and makes monolithic builds
the default. The cmake option MONOLITHIC is also removed.
* generate pkg-config files top level to make sure all
exports are available (eg. client/server)
* .pc libs section is now generated from export libraries
* update .pc file to use .private fields (prevent overlinking)
Split version numbers into:
FREERDP_API_VERSION - the version of the API which is major.minor
FREERDP_VERSION - version of a release consisting of major.minor.revision (e.g. 1.1.0)
FREERDP_VERSION_FULL - like FREERDP_VERSION but with an optional "build" suffix (e.g 1.1.0-dev)
