	crpcut-0.8.4 (a.k.a 1.0-RC2) Installation Guide

Running cmake

Before going on with the actual building, you need to run CMake. Create a temporary directory, which will be referred to as the <build-directory>.

Now, step by step

```
     bash > cd <build-directory>
```

Run CMake with the parameters mentioned above. For example, with <build-directory>=/tmp/crpcut-0.8.4, support for google-mock installed in a directory not known to CMake, and with <prefix-dir> just next to google-mock.


     bash > cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debug -DWITH_GOOGLE_MOCK \
     > -DGOOGLE_MOCK_DIR=/usr/local/development-tools/gmock \
     > -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/development-tools/crpcut \
     > /tmp/crpcut-0.8.4

The output should look something like:

-- Check for working C compiler: /usr/bin/gcc -- works
-- Detecting C compiler ABI info

Now you are ready to build crpcut All it takes is to run make.
```
     bash > make
```
The output from make is too much to list here.
Run the self test, if you can. Before you start it, make sure the machine is lightly loaded. The self test includes a lot of timeout tests, which can be affected by the load on the host. The self test takes about a minute to run, with all those timeout tests under many different configurations.
```
     bash > make selftest
```
Again, the output is a bit much to list here.
You are now ready to install crpcut Installation is done by running make install. Make sure you have write permission to <prefix-dir>.

The file <build-directory>/install_manifest contains a list of every file installed, should you want to remove them.

Now that the installation is done, you may want to get on with writing tests.
