uProtocol C++ VSOMEIP Transport (up-client-vsomeip-cpp)

Welcome!

This library provides a vsomeip-based uProtocol transport for C++ uEntities.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This project is under active development

This module contains the vsomeip implementation of the Layer 1 UTransport API from up-cpp.

Getting Started

Requirements:

• Compiler: GCC/G++ 11 or Clang 13
• Conan : 1.59 or latest 2.X

Conan packages and dependencies

Using the recipes found in up-conan-recipes, build these Conan packages:

1. up-core-api - conan create --version 1.5.8 --build=missing up-core-api/developer
2. up-cpp - conan create --version 0.2.0 --build=missing up-cpp/developer

Additionally, this project depends on the vsomeip library, which is not a Conan package.

Note: Do not enable signal handling in the vsomeip library.

Follow these steps to clone and build the vsomeip library:

# Install boost (version: 1.84.0): https://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_84_0.html

$ cd boost
$ ./bootstrap.sh --prefix=<installation-directory> # can be left as default /usr/local
$ ./b2
$ sudo ./b2 install

# Clone the vsomeip repository
git clone https://github.com/COVESA/vsomeip.git

# Navigate into the cloned repository
cd vsomeip

# Checkout the desired version
git checkout 3.4.10

# Create a new directory for the build
mkdir build
cd build

# Run CMake to configure the build. Note: Replace "/usr/local/" with your desired install path.
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/usr/local/ -G Ninja ..

# Build the project using Ninja
ninja

# Install the library (you might need sudo privileges)
sudo ninja install

How to Use the Library

To add up-client-vsomeip-cpp to your conan build dependencies, place following in your conanfile.txt:

[requires]
up-client-vsomeip-cpp/[>=1.0.0 <2.0.0]

[generators]
CMakeDeps
CMakeToolchain

[layout]
cmake_layout

NOTE: If using conan version 1.59 Ensure that the conan profile is configured to use ABI 11 (libstdc++11: New ABI) standards according to the Conan documentation for managing gcc ABIs.

Building locally

The following steps are only required for developers to locally build and test up-client-vsomeip-cpp, If you are making a project that uses up-client-vsomeip-cpp, follow the steps in the How to Use the Library section above.

With Conan for dependencies

cd up-client-vsomeip-cpp
conan install .
cd build
cmake ../ -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=Release/generators/conan_toolchain.cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
cmake --build . -- -j

Once the build completes, tests can be run with ctest.

With dependencies installed as system libraries

TODO Verify steps for pure cmake build without Conan.
