This repository contains host software (Linux/Windows) for HackRF, a project to produce a low cost, open source software radio platform.
##How to build the host software on Linux:
###Prerequisites for Linux (Debian/Ubuntu):
sudo apt-get install build-essential cmake libusb-1.0-0-dev pkg-config libfftw3-dev
###Build host software on Linux:
mkdir host/build
cd host/build
cmake ..
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig
By defualt this will attempt to install a udev rule to '/etc/udev/rules.dto provide theusborplugdevgroup access to HackRF. If your setup requires the udev rule to be installed elsewhere you can modify the path with-DUDEV_RULES_PATH=/path/to/udev`.
Note: The udev rule is not installed for by default for PyBOMBS installs as they do not ususally get installed with root privileges.
##Clean CMake temporary files/dirs:
cd host/build
rm -rf *
##How to build host software on Windows: ###Prerequisites for cygwin, mingw, or Visual Studio:
- cmake-2.8.12.1 or more see http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html
- libusbx-1.0.18 or more see http://sourceforge.net/projects/libusbx/files/latest/download?source=files
- Install Windows driver for HackRF hardware or use Zadig see http://sourceforge.net/projects/libwdi/files/zadig
- If you want to use Zadig select HackRF USB device and just install/replace it with WinUSB driver.
Note for Windows build: You shall always execute hackrf-tools from Windows command shell and not from Cygwin or Mingw shell because on Cygwin/Mingw Ctrl C is not managed correctly and especially for hackrf_transfer the Ctrl C(abort) will not stop correctly and will corrupt the file.
###For Cygwin:
mkdir host/build
cd host/build
cmake ../ -G "Unix Makefiles" -DCMAKE_LEGACY_CYGWIN_WIN32=1 -DLIBUSB_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/local/include/libusb-1.0/
make
make install
###For MinGW:
mkdir host/build
cd host/build
cmake ../ -G "MSYS Makefiles" -DLIBUSB_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/local/include/libusb-1.0/
make
make install
###For Visual Studio 2015 x64
c:\hackrf\host\build> cmake ../ -G "Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64" \
-DLIBUSB_INCLUDE_DIR=c:\libusb-1.0.21\libusb \
-DLIBUSB_LIBRARIES=c:\libusb-1.0.21\x64\Release\lib\libusb-1.0.lib \
-DTHREADS_PTHREADS_INCLUDE_DIR=c:\pthreads-w32-2-9-1-release\Pre-built.2\include \
-DTHREADS_PTHREADS_WIN32_LIBRARY=c:\pthreads-w32-2-9-1-release\Pre-built.2\lib\x64\pthreadVC2.lib \
-DFFTW_INCLUDES=C:\hackrf-2017.02.1\host\hackrf-tools\fftw-3.3.5-dll64 \
-DFFTW_LIBRARIES=C:\hackrf-2017.02.1\host\hackrf-tools\fftw-3.3.5-dll64\libfftw3f-3.lib
unpack precompiled fftw-3.3.5-dll64.zip from http://www.fftw.org/install/windows.html to C:\hackrf-2017.02.1\host\hackrf-tools\fftw-3.3.5-dll64 Create library from VS command shell C:\hackrf-2017.02.1\host\hackrf-tools\fftw-3.3.5-dll6> lib /machine:x64 /def:libfftw3f-3.def
Cmake will produce a solution file named hackrf_all.sln and a series of
project files which can be used with msbuild as follows:
c:\hackrf\host\build> msbuild ALL_BUILD.vcxproj
##How to build host the software on FreeBSD
You can use the binary package:
# pkg install hackrf
You can build and install from ports:
# cd /usr/ports/comms/hackrf
# make install
