Really Quick Instructions
|
||
-------------------------
|
||
|
||
To build: ./make.sh
|
||
To install: ./make.sh install
|
||
|
||
You might want to edit 'config' first. You might also want to set
|
||
'INSTALL_PREFIX', which is prepended onto the destination of any
|
||
installed file.
|
||
|
||
Purpose
|
||
-------
|
||
|
||
This project contains a single executable, leaptable-compiler, which is
|
||
used to compile, dump or verify the contents of a table of leap seconds
|
||
in a format suitable for loading with libiso8601.
|
||
|
||
See http://www.lwithers.me.uk/usr/src/libiso8601/ for details.
|
||
|
||
Instructions
|
||
------------
|
||
|
||
Use --help for usage info.
|
||
|
||
In compile mode, it takes a text file (or stdin) with an ISO8601-format
|
||
date on each line. Each date corresponds to a day with a positive leap
|
||
second, e.g.:
|
||
|
||
2005-06-30
|
||
2005-12-31
|
||
2008-12-31
|
||
|
||
This file is compiled into the binary format expected by libiso8601's
|
||
iso8601_leap_table_load() function.
|
||
|
||
In dump mode, the binary file is dumped into a text file. In verify
|
||
mode, the library is used to load a compiled file, and some basic tests
|
||
are performed to check the library behaviour matches what is expected.
