Monero C++ Library
This project is a lightweight wrapper of Monero Core's C++ wallet, wallet2, which conforms to the specification defined here.
The purpose of this library is to define common daemon and wallet types for a general-purpose Monero API which focuses on ease-of-use.
This library may be used to build Monero-related GUI applications, libraries in other languages (e.g. monero-java), or a conformant REST/JSON-RPC API.
Building a Dynamic / Shared Library
The source code in this project may be built as a dynamic or "shared" library for use on a target platform (e.g. Linux, Mac, Windows, etc). For example, the associated Java library depends on a dynamic library built from this project to support a wallet using JNI.
Build Steps
- Download the boost source code to ./external/boost-sdk
- Download the OpenSSL source code to ./external/openssl-sdk
- Build dependent libraries (boost, hidapi, libsodium, monero-core, and OpenSSL) and place .a files in corresponding folders in ./external-libs per CMakeLists.txt.
- Monero Core: Modify CMakeLists.txt:
option(BUILD_GUI_DEPS "Build GUI dependencies." ON). Build twice to create libwallet_merged.a. - Todo: document/automate further
- Monero Core: Modify CMakeLists.txt:
- Build libmonero-cpp.dylib to ./build:
./bin/build-libmonero-cpp.sh
