#+TITLE: runcap

* Overview

The function *runcap* runs an external command, and waits for its
termination, optionally capturing its standard output and standard
error streams, and piping data to its standard input.

* Building as a standalone library

The following steps will build the project as a standalone installable
library:

1. Configure the package
  #+BEGIN_SRC shell-script
    ./configure
  #+END_SRC
2. Build the project.
  #+BEGIN_SRC shell-script
    make
  #+END_SRC
3. Install the files (normally run as root).
  #+BEGIN_SRC shell-script
    make install
  #+END_SRC
  
  This will install the files *libruncap.so* and *libruncap.a* to the
  system library directory, and the header file *runcap.h* to the
  system include directory.

* Incorporating as a submodule

To incorporate *runcap* as a submodule to your project, follow these
steps:

1. Change to your project's toplevel directory.
2. Clone the project.
  #+BEGIN_SRC shell-script
    git submodule add git://git.gnu.org.ua/runcap.git
    git submodule init
  #+END_SRC
3. Add it to *git* index:
  #+BEGIN_SRC shell-script
    git add runcap
  #+END_SRC
4. Add it to your toplevel *Makefile.am*. 
  #+BEGIN_SRC make
    ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I grecs/am

    SUBDIRS = runcap
  #+END_SRC
5. Edit your *configure.ac*
  #+BEGIN_SRC automake
    RUNCAP_SETUP
  #+END_SRC
6. 
  #+BEGIN_SRC make
    AM_CPPFLAGS = @RUNCAP_INC@
    AM_LDADD = @RUNCAP_LDADD@
  #+END_SRC
