Installation Instructions Building and installing spandsp
************************* ===============================
A number of distributions include spandsp, but they usually use older versions
of the library, which lack a lot of the features of the current version. Before
installing spandsp, make sure there are no older versions already on your
machine. Make sure libtiff is installed on your machine. Versions 3.5.7,
3.6.0, 3.7.1 and 3.8.2 seem to work OK. There have been several bugs related
to FAX document handling in some versions of libtiff. Also, some people have
had trouble using spandsp because they had more than one version of libtiff
on their machine. Take care with this. If you are using an RPM based system,
such as RedHat or Fedora, you will need the libtiff and libtiff-devel RPMs
installed to be able to build spandsp.
You can use the usual:
./configure
make
make install
process to build the spandsp library. Note that if you use configure in this
way, the software will be installed in /usr/local. In this case make sure your
/etc/ld.so.conf file has an entry for /usr/local/lib. If you wish the software
to be installed in /usr, you should build it with the commands.
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install
Building the programming documentation
======================================
If you wish to build the programming documentation for spandsp, configure
spandsp with:
./configure --enable-doc
You need doxygen installed on your machine.
Building the test suite
=======================
Most sections of the spandsp library have an accompanying test program in the
test directory. If you wish to build these test programs, configure spandsp
with:
./configure --enable-tests
To build these tests you will need libaudiofile installed on your machine. To
build the modem tests, with the GUI monitoring feature you will need Fltk 1.1.4
or later, an audio meter module and a cartesian plotting module. Fltk may be
obtained from http://www.fltk.org. The audio meter module may be obtained from
http://www.soft-switch.org/downloads/Fl_Audio_Meter.tgz . The cartesian plotting
module may be obtained from http://134.226.68.29/fltk. However, there is no
suitable makefile supplied with that. You can find a version at
http://www.soft-switch.org/downloads/Fl_Cartesian.tgz which will build as a
Linux library. The actual code in both these versions is identical.
You need to have Fltk 1.1.4 or later installed before building the plotting
library.
Applications
============
Applications support for spandsp is built into packages such as Callweaver,
FreeSwitch and iaxmodem. Code to add spandsp based FAX support to Asterisk may
be found at http://sourceforge.net/projects/agx-ast-addons.
