• Install the dependencies :
  • sudo apt install -y cmake libexpat-dev expat default-jre
  • Clone the CommonAPI Runtime Library Repo (git clone https://github.com/GENIVI/capicxx-core-runtime.git)
  • Clone the CommonAPI SOMEIP Runtime Library Repo (git clone https://github.com/GENIVI/capicxx-someip-runtime.git)
  • Clone the SOMEIP Library Repo (git clone https://github.com/GENIVI/vsomeip.git)
  • For DLT, install the below dependencies :
    • sudo apt-get install cmake zlib1g-dev libdbus-glib-1-dev build-essential
    • sudo apt-get install libjson-c-dev (Optional)
    • Clone the DLT Daemon Repo (git clone https://github.com/COVESA/dlt-daemon.git)
  • For generating the CAPI Core & SOMEIP Bindings, download the below generators from the releases :
    • CAPI Generator : https://github.com/COVESA/capicxx-core-tools/releases
    • SOMEIP Generator : https://github.com/COVESA/capicxx-someip-tools/releases

After downloading, unzip both the generators into separate folders (commonapi_core_generator & commonapi_someip_generator)

Build all the above repos (except the 2 generators as the generators are the direct deliverables)

• For all the repos, please follow the below commands to build :

  • cd /path/to/workspace/{repo}
  • mkdir build
  • cd build
  • cmake ..
  • make
  • sudo make install

• Run the below commands to generate the CAPI Core & SOMEIP Bindings

  • ./commonapi_core_generator/commonapi-core-generator-linux-x86_64 -sk Attributes.fidl

  • ./commonapi_someip_generator/commonapi-someip-generator-linux-x86_64 Attributes.fdepl

  • The commands generate the binding files in the “src-gen” folder

• Commands to set the environmental variables

  • export VSOMEIP_CONFIGURATION=/etc/vsomeip-local.json
  • export COMMONAPI_CONFIG=/etc/commonapi-someip.ini
