1) Release Contents
-------------------------------------------

The Portable SDK for UPnP Devices is an SDK for development of UPnP device 
and control point applications.  It consists of the core UPnP 
protocols along with a UPnP-specific eXtensible Markup Language (XML) parser 
supporting the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 2 API and an optional, 
integrated mini web server for serving UPnP related documents.

3) System Requirements
-------------------------------------------

The SDK for UPnP Devices is designed to compile and run under several
operating systems.  It does, however, have dependencies on some
packages that may not be installed by default.  All packages that it
requires are listed below.

libpthread  The header and library are installed as part of the glibc-devel
            package (or equivalent).

Additionally, the documentation for the SDK can be auto-generated from 
the UPNP.H header file using DOC++, a documentation system for C, C++, 
IDL, and Java*.  DOC++ generates the documentation in HTML or TeX format.
Using some additional tools, the TeX output can be converted into a
PDF file.  To generate the documentation these tools are required:

DOC++       The homepage for DOC++ is http://docpp.sourceforge.net/.
            The current version as of this release of the SDK is
            version 3.4.9.  DOC++ is the only requirement for generating
            the HTML documentation.
LaTeX/TeX   To generate the PDF documentation, LaTeX and TeX tools are
            necessary.  The tetex and tetex-latex packages provide these
            tools.
dvips       dvips converts the DVI file produced by LaTeX into a PostScript*
            file.  The tetex-dvips package provides this tool.
ps2pdf      The final step to making the PDF is converting the PostStript
            into Portable Document Format.  The ghostscript package provides
            this tool.

For the UPnP library to function correctly, networking must be configured
properly for multicasting.  To do this:

route add -net 239.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 eth0

where 'eth0' is the network adapter that the UPnP library will use.  Without
this addition, device advertisements and control point searches will not
function.



4) Build Instructions
-------------------------------------------

CORE LIBRARIES

The in the examples below, replace $(LIBUPNP) with "libupnp-x.y.z",
with x, y, and z corresponding to the version of the library that you have.

All pieces of the SDK are configured and built from the $(LIBUPNP) directory. 

% cd $(LIBUPNP)
% ./configure
% make

will build a version of the binaries without debug support, and with default 
options enabled (see below for options available at configure time).

% cd $(LIBUPNP)
% ./configure CFLAGS="-DSPARC_SOLARIS -mtune=<cputype> -mcpu=<cputype>"
% make

will build a Sparc Solaris version of the binaries without debug support
and with default options enabled (see below for options available at
configure time). Please note: <cputype> has to be replaced by a token that
fits to your platform and CPU (e.g. "supersparc").

To build the documentation, assuming all the necessary tools are installed 
(see section 3) :

To generate the HTML documentation:

% cd $(LIBUPNP)
% make html

To generate the PDF file:

% cd $(LIBUPNP)
% make pdf


A few options are available at configure time. Use "./configure --help"
to display a complete list of options. Note that these options 
may be combined in any order.
After installation, the file <upnp/upnpconfig.h> will provide a summary
of the optional features that have been included in the library.


% cd $(LIBUPNP)
% ./configure --enable-debug
% make 

will build a debug version with symbols support.

To build the library with the optional, integrated mini web server (note
that this is the default):

% cd $(LIBUPNP)
% ./configure --enable-webserver
% make 

To build without:

% cd $(LIBUPNP)
% ./configure --disable-webserver
% make 


The SDK also contains some additional helper APIs, declared in
inc/tools/upnptools.h.  If these additional tools are not required, they can
be compiled out:

% cd $(LIBUPNP)
% ./configure --disable-tools
% make 

By default, the tools are included in the library.

To further remove code that is not required, the library can be build with or 
with out the control point (client) or device specific code.  To remove this
code:

% cd $(LIBUPNP)
% ./configure --disable-client
% make 

to remove client only code or:

% cd $(LIBUPNP)
% ./configure --disable-device
% make 

to remove device only code.

By default, both client and device code is included in the library.  The
integrated web server is automatically removed when configuring with 
--disable-device.

To build the library without large-file support (enabled by default) :

% cd $(LIBUPNP)
% ./configure --disable-largefile
% make 


To remove all the targets, object files, and built documentation:

% cd $(LIBUPNP)
% make clean


CROSS COMPILATION

To cross compile the SDK, a special "configure" directive is all that is
required:

% cd $(LIBUPNP)
% ./configure --host=arm-linux
% make

This will invoke the "arm-linux-gcc" cross compiler to build the library.


SAMPLES

The SDK contains two samples: a TV device application and a control point
that talks with the TV device.  They are found in the $(LIBUPNP)/upnp/sample 
directory.  

To build the samples (note: this is the default behaviour):

% cd $(LIBUPNP)
% ./configure --enable-samples
% make

will build the sample device "$(LIBUPNP)/upnp/tv_device" and
sample control point "$(LIBUPNP)/upnp/tv_ctrlpt". 
Note : the sample device won't be built if --disable-device has been 
configured, and the sample control point won't be build if --disable-client 
has been configured.

To run the sample device, you need to create a tvdevice directory and move
the web directory there, giving: "$(LIBUPNP)/upnp/sample/tvdevice/web".
To run the sample invoke from the command line as follows:

% cd $(LIBUPNP)/upnp/sample/tvdevice
% ../tv_device



SOLARIS BUILD

The building process for the Solaris operating system is similar to the one
described above. Only the call to ./configure has to be done using an
additional parameter:

./configure CFLAGS="-mcpu=<cputype> -mtune=<cputype> -DSPARC_SOLARIS"

where <cputype> has to be replaced by the appropriate CPU tuning flag (e.g.
"supersparc"). Afterwards

make
make install

can be called as described above.



WINDOWS BUILD

In order to build libupnp under Windows the pthreads-w32 package is required.
You can download a self-extracting ZIP file from the following location:

ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/pthreads-win32/pthreads-w32-2-7-0-release.exe
or possibly newer versions if available.

Execute the self-extracting archive and copy the Pre-build.2 folder to the
top level source folder.
Rename Pre-build.2 to pthreads. 
Open the provided workspace build\libupnp.dsw with Visual C++ 6.0 and select
Build->Build libupnp.dll (F7)
In the build directory there are also VC8, VC9 and VC10 folders containing
solution files for Visual Studio 2005/2008/2010 respectively.

If you use newer versions to build libupnp, eg Visual Studio 2003 or later,
then you need to rebuild the pthreads package so it uses the same VC runtime
as libupnp to prevent cross boundary runtime problems
(see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms235460%28v=VS.100%29.aspx).
Just replace the files in the Pre-build.2 folder (renamed to pthreads as
mentioned above) with the newly build versions.
If you also use a newer version of pthreads-win32 then you should also
replace the header files in that directory structure (obviously).

For building a static library instead of a DLL and for using the static
pthreads-w32 library following switches need to be defined additionally:

UPNP_STATIC_LIB - for creating a statically linkable UPnP-library
PTW32_STATIC_LIB - for using the static pthreads32 library


5) Install/Uninstall Instructions
-------------------------------------------

Install

The top-level makefile for the UPnP SDK contains rules to install the 
necessary components.  To install the SDK, as root:

make install

Uninstall

Likewise, the top-level makefile contains an uninstall rule, reversing 
the steps in the install:

make uninstall


6) Product Release Notes
-------------------------------------------

The SDK for UPnP Devices v1.2.1a has these known issues:

- The UPnP library may not work with older versions of gcc and libstdc++, 
  causing a segmentation fault when the library loads.  It is recommended
  that gcc version 2.9 or later be used in building library.
- The UPnP library does not work the glibc 2.1.92-14 that ships with
  Red Hat 7.0.  For the library to function, you must updated the glibc
  and glibc-devel packages to 2.1.94-3 or later.  There is some issue with
  libpthreads that has been resolved in the 2.1.94 version.


7) New Features
-------------------------------------------

See NEWS file.
