LINPHONE ON ARM-LINUX (cross-compiling on host for target architecture)

This is based on reference of README.arm by "Simon" that you may find in linphone-1.2.0 version. These modified steps helps you to cross compile on any i386 hosr for arm target.

Pakages & Dependencies: (Download these from net)
1) linphone-1.2.0
2) libosip2-2.2.2
3) libogg-1.1.0
4) speex-1.1.11.1
5) oRTP ( this is always there in linphone packages)

Arm cross tools chain used:
    arm-linux-gcc-3.4.1.tar.bz2


A) Build enviornment setup: ( assume you are on root)
   #tar -xvjf arm-linux-gcc-3.4.1.tar.bz2
   #export PATH=$PATH:/root/usr/local/arm/3.4.1/bin
   #export LD=/root/usr/local/arm/3.4.1/bin/arm-linux-ld
   #export LDFLAGS=-L/root/usr/local/arm/3.4.1/arm-linux/lib

   #mkdir arm
   #cd arm 

   untar all the packeges from 1 to 4 mentioned above

   #cp linphone-1.2.0/ipkg/ipaq-config.site /root/.
   #export CONFIG_SITE=~/ipaq-config.site
   #mkdir /root/armbuild
   #export ARM_INSTALL_TREE=/root/armbuild

B) Cross -compiling libosip2-2.2.2
   #cd libosip2-2.2.2
   #./configure --prefix=/root/armbuild -host=i686-pc-linux --target=arm-linux
--disable-static
   #make
   #make install

C) Cross -compiling libogg-1.1.0
   #cd ../libogg-1.1.0
   #./configure --prefix=/root/armbuild --host=i686-pc-linux --target=arm-linux
--disable-static --enable-fixed-point
   #make
   #make install

D) Cross -compiling speex-1.1.11.1
   #cd ../speex-1.1.11.1
   #./configure --prefix=/root/armbuild --host=i686-pc-linux --target=arm-linux
--disable-static --enable-fixed-point --enable-arm-asm
--with-ogg=/root/armbuild/usr --with-ogg-libraries=/roo/armbuild/usr/lib
--with-ogg-headers=/root/armbuild/usr/include/ogg  
   #make
   #make install

E) Copy "libspeex.so.2.0.0" to your arm-tools.
   #cp /root/armbuild/usr/lib/libspeex.so.2.0.0
/root/usr/local/arm/3.4.1/arm-linux/lib

   #cd /root/usr/local/arm/3.4.1/arm-linux/lib
   #ln -s libspeex.so.2.0.0 libspeex.so
   #ln -s libspeex.so.2.0.0 libspeex.so.2

F) Cross compile linphone-1.2.0:
   Before you do so, take the "oRTP" portion in linphone-1.2.0 folder, and do
   the following:
   
   #cd /root/arm/linphone-1.2.0
   #cd oRTP
   ##./configure --prefix=/root/armbuild --host=i686-pc-linux
--target=arm-linux --disable-static --enable-fixed-point
   #make
   #make install 

   ##cp /root/armbuild/usr/lib/libortp.so.2.0.0
/root/usr/local/arm/3.4.1/arm-linux/lib

   #cd /root/usr/local/arm/3.4.1/arm-linux/lib
   #ln -s libortp.so.2.0.0 libortp.so.2
   #ln -s libortp.so.2.0.0 libortp.so

   Now, you may try to compile the "linphone" without GUI support or with
   console support.

   #cd /root/arm/linphone-1.2.0
   #./configure --prefix=/root/armbuild --host=i686-pc-linux --target=arm-linux
--disable-static --disable-glib --enable-gnome_ui=no --disable-manual
--enable-ipv6 --enable-alsa --with-osip=/root/armbuild/usr
--with-speex=/root/armbuild/usr
   #make
   #make install

   Thats all. Check you build folder "/root/armbuild" and you may need to
   strip symbols before putting on your embedded board.

   Kindly send Feed back!
