| 65 | <para>There are two ways to build <application>NcFTP</application>.
|
---|
| 66 | The first (and optimal) way builds most of the functionality as a shared library
|
---|
| 67 | and then builds and installs the program linked against this library. The
|
---|
| 68 | second method simply links all of the functionality into the binary statically.
|
---|
| 69 | This doesn't make the dynamic library available for linking by other applications.
|
---|
| 70 | You need to choose which method best suits you. Note that the second method
|
---|
| 71 | does <emphasis>not</emphasis> create an entirely statically linked binary;
|
---|
| 72 | only the <filename class="libraryfile">libncftp</filename> parts are statically
|
---|
| 73 | linked in, in this case. Be aware that building and using the shared library is
|
---|
| 74 | covered by the Clarified Artistic License; however, developing applications that
|
---|
| 75 | utilize the shared library is subject to a different license.</para>
