What it is

==========

The Revised OpenFlow Library (ROFL) helps you adding OpenFlow support to your software to build control applications, controller frameworks and/or datapath elements.

ROFL-common is a C++ library that helps on writing OpenFlow endpoints (OF agents), for controllers, proxy controllers and datapaths.

Requirements

============

- A modern GNU build-system (autoconf, automake, libtool, ...)

- pkg-config

- GNU/Linux and libc development headers (linux-libc-dev and libc6-dev package in Debian/Ubuntu systems)

- GLOG (libgoogle-glog-dev in Debian/Ubuntu systems)

- [optional] if you want to run automatic tests (make check), libcunit and libcppunit are required (in libcunit1-dev and libcppunit-dev packages in Debian-like systems).

- [optional] Doxygen to generate the documentation.

How to build

============

Install the dependencies and run:

	sh# ./autogen.sh  

	sh# cd build  

	sh# ../configure  

	sh# make  

	sh# make install  

Optionally you can 'make check' for consistency checks.

Optional ../configure parameters

================================

	--enable-debug: Compile with debug symbols (-g) and debug output (warning, it may affect performance)  

	--enable-verbose: Increase the level of debug (useless without --enable-debug)  

	--disable-silent-rules: Enable verbose compilation mode (AM_SILENT_RULES disabled)

Doxygen documentation

================================

Documentation can be compiled via `make doc`. Documentation is generated in build/doc/ folder

Known issues

================================

* Certain GCC 4.8.X family versions are buggy and don't properly compile ROFL with -O3 optimizations. Please use GCC 4.8.3 or higher, or another version family.

FAQ

===

Some distributions, in particular Red Hat based, do not include by default /usr/local/lib on the search path of ldconfig, not allowing to link against -lrofl and -lrofl_pipeline. In this case, you might have to add /usr/local/lib/ into /etc/ld.so.conf and re-run ldconfig.
