Folly is an open-source C++ library developed and used at Facebook.
###Get Started
Folly is published on Github at https://github.com/facebook/folly; for discussions, there is a Google group at https://groups.google.com/d/forum/facebook-folly.
folly requires gcc 4.8+ and a version of boost compiled with C++11 support.
Please download googletest from https://googletest.googlecode.com/files/gtest-1.7.0.zip and unzip it in the folly/test subdirectory.
This release is old, requiring many upgrades. However, since Travis CI runs on 12.04, folly/build/deps_ubuntu_12.04.sh is provided, and upgrades all the required packages.
The following packages are required (feel free to cut and paste the apt-get command below):
sudo apt-get install \
g++ \
automake \
autoconf \
autoconf-archive \
libtool \
libboost-all-dev \
libevent-dev \
libdouble-conversion-dev \
libgoogle-glog-dev \
libgflags-dev \
make \
binutils-dev \
libjemalloc-dev \
libssl-dev
The packages listed above for Ubuntu 13.10 are required, as well as:
sudo apt-get install \
libiberty-dev
The above packages are sufficient for Ubuntu 13.10 and Ubuntu 14.04.
In the folly directory, run
autoreconf -ivf ./configure make make check sudo make install
folly is available as a Formula and releases may be built via brew install folly.
You may also use folly/build/bootstrap-osx-homebrew.sh to build against master:
cd folly ./build/bootstrap-osx-homebrew.sh make make check
Install the required packages from MacPorts:
sudo port install \
autoconf \
automake \
boost \
gflags \
git \
google-glog \
libevent \
libtool \
scons \

double-conversion (https://github.com/google/double-conversion)
Download and build double-conversion. You may need to tell configure where to find it.
[double-conversion/] ln -s src double-conversion
[folly/] ./configure LDFLAGS=-L$DOUBLE_CONVERSION_HOME/ CPPFLAGS=-I$DOUBLE_CONVERSION_HOME/
[folly/] LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$DOUBLE_CONVERSION_HOME/ make
