FEP Participant library

Description

This installed package contains the FEP Participant library.

• FEP Participant library
  • Middleware for distributed simulation systems
  • a_util platform abstraction library
  • DDL library (data description language with codec API)
  • RPC library with JSON-RPC code generator
• FEP Participant library Examples
• FEP Participant library Documentation (see fep_participant/doc/fep-participant.html)

How to use

The FEP SDK provides a CMake >= 3.5 configuration. Here's how to use it from your own CMake projects:

find_package(fep_participant REQUIRED)

After this instruction, you can create CMake executable targets linking against the FEP Participant library using the following command:

fep_add_executable(my_new_target source_file1.cpp source_file2.cpp)

Alternatively, you can append the FEP Participant Target to your existing targets to add a dependency:

target_link_libraries(my_existing_target PRIVATE fep_participant)
fep_deploy_libraries(my_existing_target)

Note that the fep_participant target will transitively pull in all required include directories and libraries.

Build Environment

The libraries are built and tested only under following compilers and operating systems:

• Windows 10 x64 with Visual Studio C++ 2015 Update 3.1 (Update 3 and KB3165756)
• Linux Ubuntu 16.04 LTS x64 with GCC 5.4 and -std=c++11 (C++11 ABI)
• Linux Ubuntu 16.04 x64 with GCC 5.4 and -std=c++11 (C++11 ABI) for ARMv8

How to build the examples

Simply point CMake to the examples directory (containing the CMakeLists.txt file) and generate a project. Choose "Visual Studio 14 2017 Win64" with the toolset "v140" or "Unix Makefiles" generator, depending on your platform.

CMake might ask for the CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE variable to be defined. Possible values are Debug, Release or RelWithDebInfo
