Kaa C SDK for windows

[KarelG]

Hi all

From my previous issue (script in wrong location), i could now work with the sandbox Kaa. I'm using the tutorial here to understand how you can deploy a client to communicate with the server.
I have downloaded the SDK, extracted it... but the tutorial doesn't explain what i should do with it.

After searching around, i found this: http://docs.kaaproject.org/display/KAA/Windows

It is useful, however it is for C++ i think. There, it mentions about a batch file,

Place env.bat to KAA_BUILD_DIR(). (File env.bat located in the 'tools' folder in C++ SDK)

I suppose that it would be same at C SDK. But it's not true. After the extraction, the tools folder only contains "pub_key_generator.jar". It could be that it's in a different folder, so i issued a search on " .bat "
But the result is none. That means that there is no batch file. It could be a bug.

Since the above link is for C++, i started to search further, and found this: http://kaaproject.github.io/kaa/doc/client-c/latest/index.html
Sadly, it isn't valid for Windows platform since it doesn't have that "make" command.

From the tutorial page, there is a GitHub page there is an installation step

4. Use the build.sh script to build and run the demo application (the 'deploy' option).

But the generated sdk even doesn't have that file. Either the search on " .sh " is not giving results.

What should i do in order to be able to use the Kaa SDK in C on Windows ?
(the reason for that is that i'm developing on my windows laptop to use the C executable on a BeagleBoard black device)



Should I try to use the batch files, provided in the C++ SDK endpoint on my C SDK ? Its tools folder contains

build_sdk_thirdparty.bat
env.bat

Hi,

Let's walk through all issues:

From my previous issue (script in wrong location), i could now work with the sandbox Kaa.

I suppose you meant this thread and the problem is solved. Am I right?

Sorry for my curiosity, but why did you run the change_kaa_host.sh script manually? 

Kaa Sandbox provides UI to do this. Just click on "Management" in the right top corner and find the "Kaa host/IP" option.

I'm using the tutorial here to understand how you can deploy a client to communicate with the server.
I have downloaded the SDK, extracted it... but the tutorial doesn't explain what i should do with it.

These instructions are valid only for Kaa 0.7.4. Sorry for inconvenience, we add this information to the webinar description.

As for Kaa 0.8.0, sandbox has already pre-configured Storm demo:

To try the demo, do as following:

1. Open <YOUR_SANDBOX_IP>:9080/sandbox/#bundleId:bundleId=storm_demos in your browser.

2. Click on the demo icon specific to a programming language (C/C++/Java).

3. Download the demo sources by clicking on the "Source" button. 

4. Follow instructions to install the demo (e.g. for the Java demo instructions are <YOUR_SANDBOX_IP>:9080/sandbox/#proj:projectId=storm_demo_java).

Note: C/C++ demos have been tested only on Linux. Before compiling it, you should install third-parties.

Best regards,

Denis

Sorry for my curiosity, but why did you run the change_kaa_host.sh script manually?

Because it wasn't accessible under the given IP. I had to set up the ip address so that it's in the same subnet. Then it works without problems.
Of course i could do that through the management console, but if i couldn't access it ... :P

As for Kaa 0.8.0, sandbox has already pre-configured Storm demo:

I have discovered that too. But the problem still persist: the SDK generation for C doesn't do well on Windows platform. I'm able to get the compressed tarball file.
But the problem is that make command, which is Linux specific. Even the new storm demo contains Linux specific operations. I am aware that you cannot support tutorials for all platforms and all languages directly.

Before compiling it, you should install third-parties.

I have seen these and installed these already. I don't speedread through tutorials.

I was probably not clear enough. The problem is that when you create a custom Kaa server. I have constructed a small test sample and database to exchange gps data (lat + long).
What i did is

1. Logged in to KAA_IP:8080 as admin
2. created a new application: Kaa_test
3. Logged out
4. Logged in to KAA_IP:8080 as devuser
5. Opened application Kaa_test > Schemas > Log > + Add schema
6. Filled the data that i need in the avro UI (correct name ?) with two fields: Long (double) and Lat(double), both not optional
7. saved the schema as GpsReportLogSchema
8. Opened "SDK profiles" > created one (figure below)
9. After the profile got created, i use the icon "generate SDK"
10. Target platform: C -> Button "Generate SDK" clicked
11. Downloaded the compressed tarball -> extracted it and got a set of files.
    

Now, the set of files contains full of codes, .h files, .c files and other stuff. But in the "tools" there is no batch file or someone useful that all these tutorials is recommending.
It only has "pub_key_generator.jar" file. In contrary to that, the demos and tutorials are talking about scripts that should be used in order to set up the client SDK.

That's why i have placed this question. Ok, i understand that my intent isn't clear. But Windows doesn't have a make command, so i need that script, in order to get the client SDK on C platform.
In the attachment, you can find the compressed tarball that i have downloaded at the SDK generation. Maybe you can look into it what's missing and what i can do with it on Windows platform.

There is a readme, which enlists the following;

PREREQUISITES
************************************
Before building the C endpoint SDK, ensure the following components are installed:
1. C compiler supporting the C99 standard <----- CHECK
2. cmake 2.8.8 or later <----- CHECK

To build the Kaa SDK for the x86-64 platform, ensure that OpenSSL libraries (ssl and crypto) are installed. <----- CHECK

INSTALL
************************************
To build the C endpoint SDK, do the following:
1. Download and untar the Kaa C SDK archive. <----- CHECK
2. Run the following commands:

    mkdir build <----- CHECK (well, just make a folder in PS: "New-Item -ItemType Directory -Path build")
    cd build <----- CHECK

For x86-64:
    cmake .. <----- CHECK
    make <----- UH NO .... Windows doesn't have it
    make install

After this, i started to look around but couldn't find clues to solve this. So, what can I do here.

Just discovered something,

After issuing the cmake command (as mentioned in the readme), it generates build files. However it is not possible to issue the make command after because there is no makelist file.
That's necessary to ensure that the make command would work. (Visual Studio uses it under the hood. But it doesn't build effectively because of the missing file)

Hi,

As for Kaa 0.8.0 we have Windows installation instructions only for C++ SDK. To try Java SDK you only need to install JRE.

You are free to build C SDK on Windows by yourself, but it will require some code changes.

Regarding to the make issue, MSVC provides its own solution called nmake. To generate Makefile for this tool, run CMake as follows:
cmake -G "NMake Makefiles" <PATH_TO_CMAKE_FILE>

Best regards,

Denis

Dear Mister Kimcherenko,

I have been busy lately, but thank you for your response. Although I am not sure if I have understood your answer correctly.
I believe that you want to replace the cmake .. step to the cmake -G "NMake Makefiles" .. step ?

Here below is the output of running the command

Does it mean that the original SDK file that i have generated is not complete ? I have only downloaded the tarball file from the kaa sandbox.
The source folder (src) doesn't contain unistd.h when i tried to find it (i thought that the path could be incorrect).

Any resolutions ?

My fault, sorry. You understood me correctly.

Just to summarize how to build C/C++ SDK on Linux/Windows:

1. Linux.

mkdir build && cd build

cmake <build_options> ..

make

2. Windows

mkdir build && cd build

cmake -G "NMake Makefiles" <build_options> ..

nmake

BUT: As for Kaa 0.8.0, only C++ SDK works out of the box with MSVC compiler. To build C SDK on Windows, try MinGW.

Best regards,

Denis

Dear Mister Kimcherenko

I moved on to C++ since it would be a better approach (and as you said, it does support Windows). But now an another issue arises.

Following the C++ guide, I have installed Boost, stored the tarball archives from Avro and Botan in a directory. Moved those two batch files to that directory
Then during the run, I got an error.
I have set the environment of BOOST correctly. In the env.bat, i have the following line,

set BOOST_ROOT=D:\software\boost_1_55_0\

It didn't work, as shown in the error here below

CMake Error at D:/software/cmake_3.4.3/share/cmake-3.4/Modules/FindBoost.cmake:1247 (message):
  Unable to find the requested Boost libraries.

I have also tried

set BOOST_ROOT=D:\software\boost_1_55_0\boost

because that folder contains the header files. But it also didn't work... The error it gives is

CMake Error at D:/software/cmake_3.4.3/share/cmake-3.4/Modules/FindBoost.cmake:1247 (message):

   <repeated x times ...>

Same story for the following

set BOOST_ROOT=D:\software\boost_1_55_0\libs

(I didn't have checked the directory first, but it was an obsolete command. The error is same as at the first run ...)

Here below is the dir content of boost installment;

Building the SDK for windows is a pain in the butt it seems :P
Did someone have tried it ? Or am i just having a lot bad luck ?

Hi KarelG,

Agree with you the building process on Windows is a little adventure :)

Regarding to Boost variables:

BOOST_ROOT - points to the root folder of Boost, where all files live (headers, libs, tools and etc.) In your case it is D:\software\boost_1_55_0

BOOST_LIBRARYDIR - points to the folder where Boost libraries locate. In your case it is D:\software\boost_1_55_0\lib32-msvc-12.0

Your env.bat looks correct.

As I understood from your description you could not build Avro library because of Boost. Am I correct?

If I got you right, one way that I can suggest you:
1. Reopen console.

2. Run env.bat script.

3. Ensure that all variables are set (e.g. echo %BOOST_LIBRARYDIR%).

4. Re-run build_sdk_thirdparty.bat.

Hope it will help.

Best regards,

Denis

Dear Mister Kimcherenko

Unfortunately it is not helping. The number of dependencies required to generate a SDK is quite large if you ask me. Maybe the developers behind Kaa would redesign it someday, so that future users wouldn't struggle with it.

To figure out the exact problem, i have separate the script in two parts: one installing avro, other installing botan. It's a long e-mail, but please check the output correctly.

The reply consists of two parts: summary and long information

Summary: the goal is to install avro and botan.

• avro: Not possible, conflict between cmake and boost. Cmake is not able to find the boost libs however these files are available in the right folder. See the details in "long information"
• botan: Managed to install it. But not by the script only. I had to do some actions myself. See the details in "long information"
  

Long information: install logs + adaption + remarks + ...

For avro, there is an issue between cmake and Boost. I have done the steps that you have suggested, here below is the modified env.bat

Apparently, the cmake is not searching correctly to the files. The files are there, but somehow it's missing it ...

Do you know why ? I am not familiar with cmake and boost, so ...

===

Now, the botan, it executes correctly, the output is a large list of cl commands to multiple cpp files. However, despite i have Python as part of the environment, it doesn't run the python script. It ... opens the file ?

( I'm using ST3 to write python script, it got opened automatically with the script instead of execute it ... ). Here below are the last lines of the output

The system cannot find the path specified.

Here is the output of python version:

D:\kaa\kaaBuild>python -V
Python 3.4.4

So why is it not running install.py but just opening it ? I believe that it's missing the " python " word at the start of src\scripts\install.py command.

I mean, should it not be the following ?

python src\scripts\install.py

Here is the proof that it misses the required "python" keyword:

PS D:\kaa\kaaBuild\botan-1.11.28> python .\src\scripts\install.py
   INFO: Botan 1.11.28 installation complete

Also, the "missing" botan.exe (as said in the output) is literally in that folder ...

If both errors could be solved, then I think that i finally have a working SDK at C++ platform on windows !

I have to file the changes that i have to do in this process so that the tutorial information could be updated and that future users could have less struggles than what I experience ;). But where can I do that ?

Should i just put it as issue on Kaa GitHub ? It's a quite list of issues :P
