Use VS + VisualGDB to compile Linux RCF and visualgdbrcf

Use VS + VisualGDB to compile Linux RCF and visualgdbrcf

As mentioned in the RCF introduction, RCF supports cross-platform communication and its code can be compiled on the Linux platform through tools such as gcc and make.

In the official source code, only the cmake compiling script is provided, and no Makefile is provided. If you want to use make to compile the script directly, you must write the Makefile yourself.

Aside from that, this article mainly describes how to compile and debug the RCF library of Linux Through VS and VisualGDB on Windows systems.

Using VS + VisualGDB to compile and debug Linux programs, this article has briefly introduced the usage of VisualGDB. This article goes straight to the topic and introduces the compiling method of RCF static library.

Configure a project through the wizard

When creating a project through the wizard, the following are the important steps,

Select static library as the project type:

Mount. cifs // 192.168.3.125/rcf. linux '/code/rcf'-o user = hbccdf, pass = '***', nopermConfigure directory structure

The configured directory structure is as follows:

D:\CODE\C++\RCF.LINUX├─Debug├─include│  ├─RCF│  │  ├─external│  │  │  └─asio│  │  │      └─asio│  │  │          ├─detail│  │  │          │  └─impl│  │  │          ├─impl│  │  │          ├─ip│  │  │          │  ├─detail│  │  │          │  │  └─impl│  │  │          │  └─impl│  │  │          ├─local│  │  │          │  └─detail│  │  │          │      └─impl│  │  │          ├─posix│  │  │          ├─ssl│  │  │          │  └─detail│  │  │          └─windows│  │  ├─test│  │  ├─thread│  │  │  └─impl│  │  ├─utf8│  │  │  └─detail│  │  └─util│  │      └─Platform│  │          └─OS│  │              ├─Unix│  │              └─Windows│  └─SF├─rcf.linux│  ├─Debug│  │  └─rcf.linux.tlog│  ├─obj│  │  └─Win32│  │      └─Debug│  └─VisualGDBCache│      └─rcf.linux-Debug└─src    ├─RCF    │  ├─test    │  └─util    └─SF

Modify project configuration

You can use visual GDB to modify project configurations, that is, Makefile configurations. You can also use VS to directly modify text content:

1> ------ generated: Project: rcf. in linux, configure: Debug Win32 ------ 1> VisualGDB: Testing shared folder-based mapping D: \ Code \ C ++ \ rcf. linux \ rcf. linux <=> 192.168.3.128:/code/rcf. linux... 1> VisualGDB: Trying to create D: \ Code \ C ++ \ rcf. linux \ rcf. linux \ vgdb1889774204.tmp... 1> VisualGDB: Run "make CONFIG = Debug" in directory "/code/rcf. linux on root@192.168.3.128 (SSH) 1> g ++-ggdb-ffunction-sections-O0-I .. /include-DDEBUG-c .. /src/RCF. cpp-o Debug/RCF. o-MD-MF Debug/RCF. dep1> ar-r Debug/librcf. a Debug/RCF. o1> ar: creating Debug/librcf. a ============ generate: 1 successful, 0 failed, 0 latest, skipped 0 ===========Add Test Program

Use the visual GDB Wizard to add the test program rcftest,

Then configure the project:

# Pragma once # include "rcf/rcf. hpp "# include <iostream> # include <string> using namespace std; RCF_BEGIN (I _HELLO," I _HELLO ") RCF_METHOD_V1 (void, SayHello, const string &) RCF_METHOD_R1 (int, add, add, int &) RCF_METHOD_V0 (void, test) RCF_END (I _HELLO) class HelloImpl {public: void SayHello (const string & world) {cout <"hello" <world <endl;} int add (int & a) {a = a + a; return a + 2;} void test () {}};

Then add the test code:

# Include <iostream> # include "hello. h "using namespace std; int main (int argc, char * argv []) {RCF: RcfInitDeinit rcf_init; HelloImpl hello; RCF: RcfServer server (RCF :: tcpEndpoint (50001); server. bind <I _HELLO> (hello); server. start (); RcfClient <I _HELLO> client (RCF: TcpEndpoint (50001); string str = "test"; client. sayHello (str); int a = 3; int B = client. add (a); cout <"a =" <a <", B =" <B <endl; for (int I = 0; I <20000; ++ I) {client. test () ;}cout <"finished" <endl ;}

The following is the compilation information:

Run the test program and view the test results

You can debug and run VS F5 to view the running result:
