10.12.2 Cairo
Cairo designates a vector-based 2D graphics library and supports output to many different backends - also
named
surfaces -, for example: X11 TM , PDF, PostScript ® and SVG files. On an x86 Desktop PC using a cross
compiler (Ubuntu TM environment) you need some additional libraries (application dependent):
cairo
expat
fontconfig
freetype
pixman-1
png12
pthread
X11
Xrender
m (libm)
z (libz)
All dynamic libraries are available within the standard Debian TM image (most of them in the directory
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf ). The best way for development consists in the use of these libraries which
should be copied from the target hardware to the cross compiler environment.
Another possible option represents the download of
libcairo2-dev (includes all necessary libraries, but only
as static version) on the target hardware with
sudo apt-get install libcairo2-dev
but this approach is not really recommended. For further steps see the chapter Sound Programming with
ALSA . Maybe a link creation or renaming of library files could be required. Please note that the
development libraries are not needed for the execution of Cairo applications on the target hardware
because the standard Debian
TM image contains all necessary files.
ATTENTION
If you download the 'libcairo2-dev' environment on the target hardware
without special precautions the image will likely be corrupted. The integrated
files 'libcairo.so.2' and 'libcairo-gobject.so.2' are special versions and should
not be overwritten.
Without special precautions the following download message appears (extract):
