- Replaced WITHOUT_XXX build options with WITH_XXX to make it easier to
understand and configure.
- Updated GitHub workflow to align with these changes and include a
build 'with lmdb' (again, analogous to non-Windows configurations)
- This configuration flag was introduced in commit d47185d in the
context of PR #3207.
- Moved to the configure step's 'run' command in order to be shared
across configurations.
- For the sake of reference, matrix.platform.configure should be used
for configuration flags that are needed for a specific
platform/architecture (which was the reason it was introduced in
commit d9255d8, PR #3144).
Implemented a new configuration option --enable-assertions=[yes|no] within config.ac, enabling controlled inclusion of -DNDEBUG in CPPFLAGS. The default setting suppresses assertions (by adding -DNDEBUG to CPPFLAGS), preserving the original behavior. This enhancement allows for the optional enabling of assertions during development or debugging by setting --enable-assertions=yes, thereby excluding -DNDEBUG from CPPFLAGS.
- Added support to build 32-bit versions of libModSecurity on Linux
- Added support to build libModSecurity using clang on Linux (both
64-bit and 32-bit versions)
- Fixed macOS dependencies to include yajl, not only because it is
a required dependency, but because tests were not being run on
macOS builds without it.
- Added build 'without libxml' to Linux & macOS configurations.
- Added build 'without ssdeep' to Linux configurations (already in macOS
configuration)
- Added build 'with lmdb' to Linux & macOS configurations, replacing the
existing one 'without lmdb' because by default LMDB is disabled if not
explicitly turn on in configure.
- Removed 'without yajl' build because it's a required 3rd party
dependency.
- Added bison & flex dependencies to enable parser generation.
- By default, all the 3rd party dependencies are enabled.
- A dependency can be turned off by adding the "-DWITHOUT_xxx=ON" to
the call of vcbuild.bat
- List of 3rd party dependencies and associated option to turn them off:
- LMDB: WITHOUT_LMDB
- LUA: WITHOUT_LUA
- LibXML2: WITHOUT_LIBXML2
- MaxMind: WITHOUT_MAXMIND
- cURL: WITHOUT_CURL
