CentOS 5.4 Compilation Guide

These compilation steps are a work in progress.

Build Environment Setup

CentOS 5.4 uses GCC 4.1 as its native compiler so MapGuide 2.2 does compile cleanly on CentOS 5.4. The following rpms are required (list may not be complete):

yum install gcc gcc-c++ autoconf automake automake17 libtool bison
yum install libjpeg-devel libpng-devel fontconfig-devel freetype-devel
yum install libxml2-devel expat-devel curl-devel libxslt-devel openldap-devel
yum install subversion ant xml-commons-apis

If you are also performing an FDO 3.5 build on the same machine, the following packages may also needed:

yum install python-devel
yum install mysql mysql-devel
yum install unixODBC unixODBC-devel

Download Java SE JDK 6 from Sun and install it. Then export JAVA_HOME from .bash_profile

JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/latest
export JAVA_HOME

Build Process

1. Checkout the source from Subversion

   svn checkout http://svn.osgeo.org/mapguide/trunk/MgDev mgdev
   

2. Download cppunit 1.12.1 tarball to mgdev/Oem from ​SourceForge Download Site

   cd mgdev/Oem
   tar -xvvzf cppunit-1.12.1.tar.gz
   

open build_oem.sh in an editor, locate the following code snippet and replace the version number from 1.9.14 to 1.12.1

#**********************************************************
# Build CPPUNIT 1.9.14
# Notes: none
#**********************************************************

init_cppunit()
{
    LIB_NAME="CPPUNIT 1.9.14"
}

build_cppunit()
{
    pushd cppunit-1.9.14
    sh ./configure --prefix="${INSTALLDIR}"
    make
    check_build
    popd
}

clean_cppunit()
{
    pushd cppunit-1.9.14
    sh ./configure --prefix="${INSTALLDIR}"
    make clean
    check_clean
    popd
}

2. Build the Oem tree

   cd mgdev
   ./build_oem.sh
   pushd Oem/fusion
   ant prepare
   ant compress
   popd
   pushd Oem/LinuxApt
   ./build_apt.sh
   popd
   

3. Build MapGuide

   aclocal
   libtoolize --force
   automake --add-missing --copy
   autoconf
   ./configure --enable-optimized
   make
   make install
   

You should now have a copy of MapGuide 2.2 built and installed to /usr/local/mapguideopensource.
