OpenSAML-C

The OpenSAML-C 3.x shared library can be built from source using any reasonably standard C++ compiler or installed from binary packages on supported platforms. Note that C++ libraries must be built using a common compiler or link/load undefined symbol errors will result.

Static library support is not available.

As noted here OpenSAML requires multiple dependencies to be available or built.

• The Boost headers.  But you don't need to actually build or install the full Boost library set.

• cxxtest (optional, for unit test support)

• log4shib (or log4cpp, deprecated)

• zlib

• OpenSSL

• libcurl

• Xerces-C

• XML-Security-C

• XMLTooling-C

Non-Windows

A standard configure command line should do the right thing, barring occasional platform-specific requirements or pointing to libraries in non-standard locations.
