This adds a static dependency script for libraries like boost, unbound,
etc. to cmake, invokable with:
cmake .. -DBUILD_STATIC_DEPS=ON
which downloads and builds static versions of all our required
dependencies (boost, unbound, openssl, ncurses, etc.). It also implies
-DSTATIC=ON to build other vendored deps (like miniupnpc, lokimq) as
static as well.
Unlike the contrib/depends system, this is easier to maintain (one
script using nicer cmake with functions instead of raw Makefile
spaghetti code), and isn't concerned with reproducible builds -- this
doesn't rebuild the compiler, for instance. It also works with the
existing build system so that it is simply another way to invoke the
cmake build scripts but doesn't require any external tooling.
This works on Linux, Mac, and Windows.
Some random comments on this commit (for preserving history):
- Don't use target_link_libraries on imported targets. Newer cmake is
fine with it, but Bionic's cmake doesn't like it but seems okay with
setting the properties directly.
- This rebuilds libzmq and libsodium, even though there is some
provision already within loki-core to do so: however, the existing
embedded libzmq fails with the static deps because it uses libzmq's
cmake build script, which relies on pkg-config to find libsodium which
ends up finding the system one (or not finding any), rather than the one
we build with DownloadLibSodium. Since both libsodium and libzmq are
faily simple builds it seemed easiest to just add them to the cmake
static build rather than trying to shoehorn the current code into the
static build script.
- Half of the protobuf build system ignores CC/CXX just because Google,
and there's no documentation anywhere except for a random closed bug
report about needing to set these other variables (CC_FOR_BUILD,
CXX_FOR_BUILD) instead, but you need to. Thanks Google.
- The boost build is set to output very little because even the minimum
-d1 output level spams ~15k lines of output just for the headers it
installs.
The archaic (i.e. decade old) cmake usage here really got in the way of
trying to properly use newer libraries (like lokimq), so this undertakes
overhauling it considerably to make it much more sane (and significantly
reduce the size).
I left more of the architecture-specific bits in the top-level
CMakeLists.txt intact; most of the efforts here are about properly
loading dependencies, specifying dependencies and avoiding a whole pile
of cmake antipatterns.
This bumps the required cmake version to 3.5, which is what xenial comes
with.
- extensive use of interface libraries to include libraries,
definitions, and include paths
- use Boost::whatever instead of ${Boost_WHATEVER_LIBRARY}. The
interface targets are (again) much better as they also give you any
needed include or linking flags without needing to worry about them.
- don't list header files when building things. This has *never* been
correct cmake usage (cmake has always known how to wallet_rpc_headers
the headers that .cpp files include to know about build changes).
- remove the loki_add_library monstrosity; it breaks target names and
makes compiling less efficient because the author couldn't figure out
how to link things together.
- make loki_add_executable take the output filename, and set the output
path to bin/ and install to bin because *every single usage* of
loki_add_executable was immediately followed by setting the output
filename and setting the output path to bin/ and installing to bin.
- move a bunch of crap that is only used in one particular
src/whatever/CMakeLists.txt into that particular CMakeLists.txt instead
of the top level CMakeLists.txt (or src/CMakeLists.txt).
- Remove a bunch of redundant dependencies; most of them look like they
were just copy-and-pasted in, and many more aren't needed (since they
are implied by the PUBLIC linking of other dependencies).
- Removed `die` since it just does a FATAL_ERROR, but adds color (which
is useless since CMake already makes FATAL_ERRORs perfectly visible).
- Change the way LOKI_DAEMON_AND_WALLET_ONLY works to just change the
make targets to daemon and simplewallet rather than changing the build
process (this should make it faster, too, since there are various other
things that will be excluded).
This removes a bunch of macros from cryptonote_config.h that either
aren't used at all, or have never applied to Loki, along with
removing/simplifying some of the dead code touching these macros.
A few of these are still used only in the test suite, so I moved them
there instead.
One of these sounds sort of scary -- ALLOW_DEBUG_COMMANDS -- but this
has *always* been forcibly enabled with no way to disable it going back
to the very first monero git commit.
DYNAMIC_FEE_PER_KB_BASE_FEE_V5 was defined in a very strange way that
doesn't make a lot of sense (including using a constant that is not
otherwise applied in loki), so I just replaced it with the expanded
value.
Keep the immediate direct deps at the library that depends on them,
declare deps as PUBLIC so that targets that link against that library
get the library's deps as transitive deps.
Break dep cycle between blockchain_db <-> crytonote_core.
No code refactoring, just hide cycle from cmake so that
it doesn't complain (cycles are allowed only between
static libs, not shared libs).
This is in preparation for supproting BUILD_SHARED_LIBS cmake
built-in option for building internal libs as shared.
