# Purpose of 3rdParty
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This directory is used to download and build dependencies for BOINC components.
|
||
|
|
Archives should be downloaded into a platform specific subdirectory (e.g linux, mac, ...)
|
||
|
|
to allow cross compilation of several platforms on a single host.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Build products of dependencies should be installed into a corresponding subdirectory of
|
||
|
|
3rdParty/buildCache to allow CI systems to cache this data between BOINC builds.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
See the existing [buildLinuxDependencies.sh](buildLinuxDependencies.sh) and
|
||
|
|
[buildMacDependencies.sh](buildMacDependencies.sh) scripts for how this is done
|
||
|
|
on Linux and Mac currently.
