We strongly -# recommend using the cmake tool (see README.cmake) -# to build openJPEG. -# ************************************************** - - -Release Notes --------------- -This version of the library has been tested under the following OS: -- RedHat Linux 9.0 - -You should be able to link progams with the -lopenjpeg option after the library is compiled and installed. -You can also statically link with libopenjpeg.a. -If you use a really old version of gcc and it chokes on the CRs in the file, you can type 'make dos2unix' -to run all of the files through dos2unix which converts CRLF to LF. This no longer appears to be required -for RedHat 7.3 or 9. - -Please let us know how this works for you under other Linux distributions or any other *nix. - -Installation ------------- -Note: You will need to have root privileges in order to install the library in -/usr/include and /usr/lib directories. -The installation process is as simple as this : -1) Enter the OpenJPEG directory -2) Build the distribution : -make -make install -3) Clean all files produced during the build process -make clean - -Simple codec compilation ------------------------- -Once you've built the library, you might want to test it with a basic codec. To do this, go to the codec directory and use one of the following commands to build an encoder and decoder respectively: - -gcc convert.c image_to_j2k.c -o image_to_j2k -lopenjpeg -I ../libopenjpeg/ -lm -ltiff -gcc convert.c j2k_to_image.c -o j2k_to_image -lopenjpeg -I ../libopenjpeg/ -lm -ltiff - -You should add '-L..' to those lines if you did not use the 'install' target (and the 'clean' target neither...). |
