B.3 Building DODS

If you need to build the OPeNDAP software, or link it to existing libraries, you will need the following GNU software. Refer to http://www.gnu.org for instructions. Look at http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html for a list of mirrors of that archive. Use the mirror closest to you, the transmission will be faster.

GNU C++ Compiler
OPeNDAP needs g++, the GNU C++ compiler to compile.
binutils
The GNU linker is part of this package.
libstdc++
The standard C++ library. 
GNU Make
GNU Make is not essential, but will make like easier.
flex
The GNU lexical-analyzer generator
bison
The GNU parser generator.
