Building applications using vcpkg for C SDK

This document describes how to setup vcpkg to build applications using Microsoft Azure IoT device SDK for C. It demonstrates building sample projects in Windows using the Visual Studio project files included in the SDK. It also demonstrates building standalone applications using cmake project files in Linux and Mac.

Setup C SDK vcpkg for Windows development environment

  • Open a command prompt and run the following commands:
# Clone vcpkg
git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg.git vcpkg_new

# Bootstrap and install Visual Studio integration
pushd vcpkg_new
.\bootstrap-vcpkg.bat
vcpkg integrate install

# Install azure-iot-sdk-c package
vcpkg install azure-iot-sdk-c

# Optional, useful if you need to share or restore a box with the sdk without building it
# Export nuget package locally
vcpkg export azure-iot-sdk-c --nuget

# Open a C SDK sample (assuming repo was cloned as follows: git clone https://github.com/Azure/azure-iot-sdk-c.git azureiotsdk_sample)
# (Building the SDK and samples can be found here https://github.com/Azure/azure-iot-sdk-c/blob/master/doc/devbox_setup.md)
pushd azureiotsdk_sample\iothub_client\samples\iothub_ll_c2d_sample\windows
start iothub_ll_c2d_sample.sln
<hit F5 to build and run>
  • Alternatively, if the Visual Studio integration step isn't setup, it is possible to build the sample using the locally generated NugGet package. In order to use the locally vcpkg-exported package in Visual Studio, open Nuget package manager console and run the following commands:
Install-Package <package name provided by vcpkg export command> -Source "d:\d\vcpkg_new"
<hit F5 to build and run>

Setup C SDK vcpkg for Linux or Mac development environment

  • Within an existing C SDK sample cmake file (e.g. iothub_client/samples/iothub_ll_telemetry_sample/linux/CMakeLists.txt), replace the current contents with the following:
#Copyright (c) Microsoft. All rights reserved.	
#Licensed under the MIT license. See LICENSE file in the project root for full license information.

#this is CMakeLists.txt for iothub_ll_telemetry_sample
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.11)

if(WIN32)
message(FATAL_ERROR "This CMake file is only support Linux builds!")
endif()

  • Run following commands in the newly created cmake directory:
cmake .. -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=~/vcpkg_new/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake
cmake --build .
./iothub_ll_telemetry_sample
