Installing |project|
====================

There are currently two ways to install the |version| version of
|project|:

* |ubuntu| packages
* From source

|ubuntu| Packages
-----------------

Debian packages for several versions of |ubuntu| are available from
the `CoR-Lab package repository <http://packages.cor-lab.de/>`_. The following repository
source line has to be added to ``/etc/apt/sources.list``::

  deb http://packages.cor-lab.de/ubuntu/ RELEASENAME testing

where :samp:`RELEASENAME` is the appropriate Ubuntu release name. Now install
the package::

   libcca0.5-dev

.. note::

   More information can be found `here <http://packages.cor-lab.de/>`_.

From Source
-----------

Installation from source requires :ref:`RSB <rsb>`, :ref:`RST <rst>`  and
`cmake`_. :ref:`RST Converters<rst>` is also suggested to enable remote
communication over the network.

#. The source tree of |project| in its trunk version can be obtained via::
   
     svn co https://redmine.amarsi-project.eu/svn/cca/trunk/cca

   .. note::

      In the following commands, :samp:`{prefix}` specifies the target
      directory of the installation.

#. Build and install |project| Library

   .. code-block:: sh

      cd build
      cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$prefix ..
      make
      make install
