Overview

Binary Format Data Modeler

This is a suite of tools to work with binary data streams that have a well-defined structure as a bit-stream or byte-stream. The structure of this data is specified in BFSDL.

Binary Format Stream Definition Language

This is a Data Definition Language that allows an object-oriented bit-stream to be defined in a human-readable format.

Building

Prior to building, make sure you have Python 3.4 or later installed.

Environment Setup

To download external dependencies, run ./setup. The archive files will be saved in the _out/archive directory, and the libraries will be extracted to the external folder. This only needs to be done ONCE. To perform setup again, delete the files in _out/archive and directories in external.

Configure waf

Run ./configure waf to search the system for build dependencies. See waf documentation for details.

Building

To see build options, type ./waf -h. Always use the build waf command to build, along with -p and optionally -m; this will ensure the output folders get setup correctly.

For example:

# Build win32 targets in development (default)
./waf -p win32

# Build win64 targets in release
./waf -p win64 -m release
