configuration
Configuration options
Configuration refers with selecting compile-time options. There are also run-time options that can be specified on the command line or in a special configuration file. The default configuration should work fine, unless some supporting libraries or header files aren't available on your machine.
Configuring
# ./configure
Usually the default settings will be fine.
- Run in /usr/local/owfs (or whereever owfs source code was placed with
./configure [options]
- Most common settings
--enable-owfs
--disable-owfs
Should the filesystem (fuse-dependent) program be built? Default true unless the fuse library was not found.
--enable-owhttpd
--disable-owhttpd
Should the web server be built?
--enable-owftpd
--disable-owftpd
Should the (currently non-functional) ftp server be built?
--enable-cache
--disable-cache
Temporarily store 1-wire properties to speed responsiveness of system? See caching page.
--enable-usb
--disable-usb
Include USB support? Requires libusb.
--enable-mt
--disable-mt
Multithreaded model. Increased speed with simultaneous processes requesting data from the 1-wire bus. Enable unless very constrained memory or very slow process using the bus.

./configure --help
`configure' configures this package to adapt to many kinds of systems.
Usage: ./configure [OPTION]... [VAR=VALUE]...
To assign environment variables (e.g., CC, CFLAGS...), specify them as
VAR=VALUE. See below for descriptions of some of the useful variables.
Defaults for the options are specified in brackets.
Configuration:
-h, --help display this help and exit
--help=short display options specific to this package
--help=recursive display the short help of all the included packages
-V, --version display version information and exit
-q, --quiet, --silent do not print `checking...' messages
--cache-file=FILE cache test results in FILE [disabled]
-C, --config-cache alias for `--cache-file=config.cache'
-n, --no-create do not create output files
--srcdir=DIR find the sources in DIR [configure dir or `..']
Installation directories:
--prefix=PREFIX install architecture-independent files in PREFIX
[/opt/owfs]
--exec-prefix=EPREFIX install architecture-dependent files in EPREFIX
[PREFIX]
By default, `make install' will install all the files in
`/opt/owfs/bin', `/opt/owfs/lib' etc. You can specify
an installation prefix other than `/opt/owfs' using `--prefix',
for instance `--prefix=$HOME'.
For better control, use the options below.
Fine tuning of the installation directories:
--bindir=DIR user executables [EPREFIX/bin]
--sbindir=DIR system admin executables [EPREFIX/sbin]
--libexecdir=DIR program executables [EPREFIX/libexec]
--datadir=DIR read-only architecture-independent data [PREFIX/share]
--sysconfdir=DIR read-only single-machine data [PREFIX/etc]
--sharedstatedir=DIR modifiable architecture-independent data [PREFIX/com]
--localstatedir=DIR modifiable single-machine data [PREFIX/var]
--libdir=DIR object code libraries [EPREFIX/lib]
--includedir=DIR C header files [PREFIX/include]
--oldincludedir=DIR C header files for non-gcc [/usr/include]
--infodir=DIR info documentation [PREFIX/info]
--mandir=DIR man documentation [PREFIX/man]
Program names:
--program-prefix=PREFIX prepend PREFIX to installed program names
--program-suffix=SUFFIX append SUFFIX to installed program names
--program-transform-name=PROGRAM run sed PROGRAM on installed program names
System types:
--build=BUILD configure for building on BUILD [guessed]
--host=HOST cross-compile to build programs to run on HOST [BUILD]
Optional Features:
--disable-FEATURE do not include FEATURE (same as --enable-FEATURE=no)
--enable-FEATURE[=ARG] include FEATURE [ARG=yes]
--disable-dependency-tracking Speeds up one-time builds
--enable-dependency-tracking Do not reject slow dependency extractors
--enable-shared[=PKGS]
build shared libraries [default=yes]
--enable-static[=PKGS]
build static libraries [default=yes]
--enable-fast-install[=PKGS]
optimize for fast installation [default=yes]
--disable-libtool-lock avoid locking (might break parallel builds)
--enable-owfs Enable owfs module (default auto)
--enable-owhttpd Enable owhttpd module (default true)
--enable-owftpd Enable owftpd module (default true)
--enable-cache Enable caching (default true)
--enable-usb Enable 1-Wire usb DS2490 support (default auto)
--enable-mt Enable multithreading support (default true)
Optional Packages:
--with-PACKAGE[=ARG] use PACKAGE [ARG=yes]
--without-PACKAGE do not use PACKAGE (same as --with-PACKAGE=no)
--with-gnu-ld assume the C compiler uses GNU ld [default=no]
--with-pic try to use only PIC/non-PIC objects [default=use
both]
--with-tags[=TAGS]
include additional configurations [automatic]
Some influential environment variables:
CXX C++ compiler command
CXXFLAGS C++ compiler flags
LDFLAGS linker flags, e.g. -L<lib dir> if you have libraries in a
nonstandard directory <lib dir>
CPPFLAGS C/C++ preprocessor flags, e.g. -I<include dir> if you have
headers in a nonstandard directory <include dir>
CC C compiler command
CFLAGS C compiler flags
CPP C preprocessor
CXXCPP C++ preprocessor
F77 Fortran 77 compiler command
FFLAGS Fortran 77 compiler flags
Use these variables to override the choices made by `configure' or to help
it to find libraries and programs with nonstandard names/locations.
