How to use that library on a linux platform?

nabijaczleweli commented 5 years ago

You should be able to run make, then link to out/libinfoware.a and include files from the include/ folder to use the library, there are no required special steps to it on Linux. (There are optional ones, however, as forthlaid in the Configuration sexion in README.)

The only problem I encountered on my Linux machine just now when trying to build the library was the missing cpuid.h header; that is, however, a common issue, and you should be able to copy /usr/lib/gcc/{your-dist}/{some-version}/include/cpuid.h into /usr/include/ to alleviate it.

Guessing you succeeded in building, then, @EndErr?
