This allows us and users to reproducibly build verified versions of the
library with checksums. It will power the toktok-stack continuous build
with checked-in checksums at specific git revisions.
To prevent top-level linking of all libraries.
Problem: ```pkg-config --libs toxcore``` returns all libraries that are
required by all libtox*.so libraries. This is wrong because for a
dynamically linked executable only top-level libraries need to be
supplied. ```pkg-config --libs --static toxcore``` should return all
libraries for the statically linked executable.
For example, the ToxBot https://github.com/JFreegman/ToxBot executable
uses pkg-config and is linked with the opus library, which is wrong.
Based on #533.
This basically means: try until you run out of time (50 minutes on
Travis). On Linux, we really want the tests to pass, so there is no point
in limiting the number of retries. On windows, we don't retry, on FreeBSD
it's limited to 1.
This library contains all the code for the old libtoxcore, libtoxav,
libtoxdns, and libtoxencryptsave. The build for toxav is still optional,
and disabling it causes libtoxcore to simply not contain those symbols
and the pkg-config file to not include opus and vpx as dependencies.
This requires that every symbol, even if static (file-scope), is unique.
The idea is that we can easily run "whole" program static analysis on
programs that include monolith.h ("whole" is in quotes, as we don't
include dependencies like libsodium in this static analysis).
"All rights reserved" was incorrect. The project was licensed under GPL3,
which means a lot of rights are licensed to everybody in the world, i.e.
not reserved to the "Tox Project".
this updates the version-sync script to generate proper SO versions
which will be used by cmake and libtool to create version symlinks
on the system when a library is installed as well as setting the SO
version in the binary.
To see what this does, you have to configure tox with a prefix:
./configure --prefix=/tmp/tox-with-libtool
mkdir cbuild && cd cbuild && cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/tmp/tox-with-cmake ..
Then run `make && make install`.
in both instances you should see the following installed in `lib/`:
libtoxcore.so -> libtoxcore.so.1.4.0
libtoxcore.so.1 -> libtoxcore.so.1.4.0
libtoxcore.so.1.4.0
inside the binary the soname should be the one with .1 and it should not
contain the full version:
$ objdump -p libtoxcore.so.1.4.0 | grep SONAME
SONAME libtoxcore.so.1
