I want to build an application that will be compatible with, say, Debian Lenny (libc, postgres, oracle and other libs) on a different Debian/Ubuntu release.
Is this possible? If so, where can I read how to do it?
You can use the open build service for this. Create the Debian package description files for it (you can add also rpm spec files), select the target distributions and you will get it built on each platform and also get a specific download repository for each platform. Your package will be rebuilt automatically when needed as well. You can install your own instance of the service if you need to host proprietary code.
If you want a multiplatform binary, you may want to build it against a LSB chroot:
http://ftp.linux-foundation.org/pub/lsb/impl
And bundle any library that is not part of it. The LSB has tools to then check your app for compliance. Their website is down right now, but it should be here: http://ldn.linuxfoundation.org/lsb/check-your-app

I am working on a C++ project that requires third-party libraries (boost, poco, etc). I use cmake/make to install the package to an install location and deploy it to the production machine. However, when pushing the app to another machine, the shared libraries are not present on the target machine causing ld errors. Is there a standard way to detect dependencies (i.e. shared libs) and deploy them to the install location along the application?
You can try Linux Deploy Qt.I use it for deploying my Qt application written in C++. Apart from Qt, it also puts other non-Qt dependencies(libraries) into a single directory. just run it with the executable as the argument.
I am going to deploy a Qt Application on github and I want to link with some KF5 modules
I call the cmake command
find_package(KF5Crash)
and on linux the things are quite simple the user can
apt-get install libkf5crash-dev
I can mention on documentation the instruction on how to install kcrash or other kf5 modules, the problem is on windows, how can I instruct the windows developers/contributors to install any of the kf5 module?
KDE developers use the Craft utility to deploy source and binaries of KF5 (and many other dependencies) to Windows.
See https://community.kde.org/Craft
I used to use Anvil (through hammer) to build some native libs to be bundled with a rails app. Specifically I was building libapngasm using this:
https://github.com/Kagetsuki/heroku-buildpack-apngasm
Unfortunately it seems Anvil has been discontinued and I couldn't find any information on how to do a remote build and retrieve the resulting binaries through the Build API.
Is there a new alternative to Anvil? What is a "correct" way to do this?
OK, the official answer here was a little more obvious than I had expected. Basically if you're running the same gcc/libc~ as that stack your dyno is running compile locally. Otherwise just spin up a VM or a docker image with a compatible version and build on that. Then just vendorize the libraries/binaries into your app repository so they'll be bundled up with the slug when you push. Finally, set your heroku environment load path to find the libs/bins you bundled.
Hi we want to use remote development features of netbeans but while trying out on our setup its very slow. I want to understand its feasibility of integrating our build environment with netbeans.
Our setup would be normally:
1. Windows 7 Professional 64bit where we install netbeans
2. RHEL 5.5 64bit linux where we have tools and sources
Normally we directly connect to that machine through PuTTY and use VIM to edit sources and gmake to compile and build projects. Now when I created the "New Remote Project with existing sources" and try to use it It took more time to load the project.
So Can anybody tell me how actually this remote compilation works??
Because we have some GBs of sources here on linux box and I want to know is it possible for smooth development with this big data??
Simple steps. Read this tutorial. You just need a SSH-server on your Linux.
The process is easy, your Netbeans connects to the SSH-server and searches for compilation tools then uses them to build your projects.
The second issue is creating a shared folder that your Windows and Linux able to access to it. I suggest you first create a shared folder on your Windows and use Samba client on your Linux.
I have downloaded and installed the pion network library.
I am trying to build the sample web services (HelloService etc). However, I cannot find instructions on how to build the examples.
I am developing on windows7
Check This for build instructions on Windows.
