libitl2 is a fork from libitl. This fork aims initially to:

• Move the code from the SVN SCM to git SCM
• Modernize the build system by moving it from autotools to cmake
• Do static analysis on the existing code and fix the found bugs
• Make the library cross-platform (i.e., runs natively on Unix/Linux, Mac, and Windows)

In order to compile the library, you will need the following tools:

• A modern C compiler (e.g., GCC or Clang). Building the library has been tested with GCC 4.8.1
• cmake (Tested with 2.8.11.2)

To compile the library and the demo programs, perform the followig commands in the itl2 directory:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
./demo_prayer # To run the prayer demo program

We are using ccc-analyzer from Clang to perform the static analysis. To use ccc-analyzer, you need to perform the follwoing:

cmake -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/usr/share/clang/scan-build/ccc-analyzer ..
/usr/share/clang/scan-build/scan-build make

It is important to note that Clang might be installed on different directories on different machines.
