# Neat VNC (Beta)
## Introduction
This is a liberally licensed VNC server library that's intended to be fast and
neat. Note: This is a beta release, so the interface is not yet stable.
## Goals
* Speed.
* Clean interface.
* Interoperability with the Freedesktop.org ecosystem.
## Building
### Runtime Dependencies
* pixman
* libuv
* libpng (only needed for examples and benchmarks)
### Build Dependencies
* GNU Make
* GCC or Clang
* pkg-config
* libdrm
To build just run:
```
make
```
### Installing
```
make install
```
### Variables
* `CFLAGS`: Flags passed to the compiler.
* `LDFLAGS`: Flags passed to the linker.
* `BUILD_DIR`: Destination directory for the build.
* `PREFIX`: System prefix. Default: `/usr/local`.
* `DESTDIR`: Destination directory for install. This is used by system
package system such as dpkg, rpm and pacman.
* `PKGCONFIG`: `pkg-config` executable path.
* `STRIP`: `strip` executable path.
* `DONT_STRIP`: Set this is the installed DSO is not to be stripped of its
debugging symbols.
### Cross-compiling
Generally, it should be enough to set `CC=<architecture-triplet>-gcc` and then
run `make`, e.g.:
```
CC=arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc make
```
If you have a `pkg-config` wrapper at `<triplet>-pkg-config` it will be run
instead if `pkg-config`, but `pkg-config` can also be overridden by setting the
`PKGCONFIG` environment variable prior to running `make`.
