Building

jack-example-tools uses the meson build system.

To configure the project, meson's universal options (e.g. --prefix) can be used to prepare a build directory:

meson --prefix=/usr build

To build the applications and libraries ninja is required:

ninja -C build

Installing

Meson is able to install the project components to the system directories (when run as root), while honoring the DESTDIR environment variable:

DESTDIR="/some/other/location" meson install -C build
