Wipe out the build directory, recreate it and run cmake +like this: + + cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../util/32-bit-toolchain.cmake -GNinja .. + +If you want to build as a shared library, pass -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=1. On +Windows, where functions need to be tagged with "dllimport" when coming from a +shared library, define BORINGSSL_SHARED_LIBRARY in any code which #includes the +BoringSSL headers. + + +Building for Android: + +It's possible to build BoringSSL with the Android NDK using CMake. This has +been tested with version 10d of the NDK. + +Unpack the Android NDK somewhere and export ANDROID_NDK to point to the +directory. Clone https://github.com/taka-no-me/android-cmake into util/. +Then make a build directory as above and run CMake *twice* like this: + + cmake -DANDROID_NATIVE_API_LEVEL=android-9 \ + -DANDROID_ABI=armeabi-v7a \ + -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../util/android-cmake/android.toolchain.cmake \ + -GNinja .. + +Once you've run that twice, ninja should produce Android-compatible binaries. +You can replace "armeabi-v7a" in the above with "arm64-v8a" to build aarch64 +binaries. + + +Known Limitations on Windows: + + * Versions of cmake since 3.0.2 have a bug in its Ninja generator that causes + yasm to output warnings "yasm: warning: can open only one input file, only + the last file will be processed". These warnings can be safely ignored. + The cmake bug is http://www.cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=15253. + + * cmake can generate Visual Studio projects, but the generated project files + don't have steps for assembling the assembly language source files, so they + currently cannot be used to build BoringSSL. + +[1] http://www.cmake.org/download/ + +[2] https://martine.github.io/ninja/ + +[3] https://www.python.org/downloads/ + +[4] http://yasm.tortall.net/ + +[5] https://golang.org/dl/ |
