Building from sources
=====================

Detailed instructions for building from sources are available at:
http://xenomai.org/installing-xenomai-3-x/

- GIT clone:

  git://git.xenomai.org/xenomai-3.git
  http://git.xenomai.org/xenomai-3.git
  http://git.xenomai.org/xenomai-3.git

  Once the repository is cloned, make sure to bootstrap the autoconf
  system in the top-level directory by running script/bootstrap.  In
  order to do this, you will need the GNU autotools installed on your
  workstation.

  If you intend to update the Xenomai code base, you may want to pass
  --enable-maintainer-mode to the configure script for building, so
  that autoconf/automake output files are automatically regenerated at
  the next (re)build in case the corresponding templates have changed.

- Tarballs:

  http://xenomai.org/downloads/xenomai/

  Source tarballs are self-contained and ready for building.

Licensing terms
===============

Source files which implement the Xenomai software system generally
include a copyright notice and license header. In absence of license
header in a particular file, the terms and conditions stated by the
COPYING or LICENSE file present in the top-level directory of the
relevant package apply.

For instance, lib/cobalt/COPYING states the licensing terms and
conditions applicable to the source files present in the hierarchy
rooted at lib/cobalt.
