Autotools改进数据库应用部署

摘要

目前气象部门业务软件共享需求普遍,但实际共享水平不高.为了简化Unix/Linux操作系统数据库应用部署工作、方便用户共享使用,尝试使用开源软件普遍使用的Autotools(开源编译系统)工具改进数据库应用的部署.Autotools不仅能够降低开发具有可移植性程序的难度,而且能简化以源程序发布软件的编译工作.从开发者角度着重介绍了Autotools中Auotconf、Automake两个工具的使用方法,并描述了使用Autotools改进数据库项目部署的详细方法.使用Autotools有利于进一步完善、更广泛地推广数据库应用,其他类似气象行业软件也可以使用Autotools发布软件包进行共享或推广.%The GNU build system, also known as Autotools, is a suite of programming tools designed to assist in making source-code packages portable to many Unix-like systems, which can not only reduce the difficulty in developing transplantable software, but also simplify software compilation. The deployment and improvement of the database-related software by using Autotools are described. Two tools of Autotools, Auotconf and Automake, are discussed emphatically from the viewpoint of the developer, and the detailed application method is introduced. Autotools can further improve and popularize the application of databases, and can be used in other meteorological-related software for releasing and sharing software packages on the Linux/Unix platform.
