This file outlines what it takes to build Autopsy from source.

|

Here are some notes to shed some light on what is going on during
|
||||
the build process.
|
||||
|
||||
- The Sleuth Kit Java datamodel JAR file has native libraries
|
||||
that are copied into it.
|
||||
- The Sleuth Kit Java datamodel JAR file has native JNI libraries
|
||||
that are copied into it. These JNI libraries have dependencies on
|
||||
libewf and zlib. On non-Windows platforms, the JNI library also has
|
||||
a dependency on libtsk (on Windows, it is compiled into libtsk_jni).
|
||||
|
||||
- NetBeans uses ant to build Autopsy. The build target copies the
|
||||
TSK datamodel JAR file into the project. If you want to use the
|
||||
debug version of the TSK dll, then there is a different ant target
|
||||
in TSK to copy the debug versions of the dlls.
|
||||
in the TSK datamodel to copy the debug versions of the dlls.
|
||||
|
||||
- On a Windows system, the ant target copies all needed libraries
|
||||
to the autopsy folder. On a Unix system, the ant taget copies only
|
||||
the JNI library and then relies on the other libraries (libtsk,
|
||||
libewf, zilb, etc.) to be installed on the system in their standard
|
||||
locations (i.e. /usr/local).
|
||||
- On a Windows system, the compile-time ant target copies the
|
||||
dependency libraries into the Autopsy code structure so that they can
|
||||
be found when Autopsy is run and packaged. At run-time, the native
|
||||
library inside of the JAR file will be extracted and used.
|
||||
|
||||
- On a Unix system, the ant taget copies only the JNI library and
|
||||
then relies on the other libraries (libtsk, libewf, zilb, etc.) to
|
||||
be installed on the system in their standard locations (i.e.
|
||||
/usr/local).
|
||||
|
||||
- Everytime that you do a source code update of TSK, make sure you
|
||||
rebuild both the dll and the JAR file.
|
||||
rebuild both the libtsk_dll, the JAR file, and then rebuild Autopsy
|
||||
so that it copies the latest data model JAR file.
