The main components of nchat are split into separate libraries, which by default are built as shared libraries and dynamically loaded at run-time. The rationale is to minimize memory usage, startup time and also build time.
Using build config flags one can change how the internal components are loaded.
Link internal libraries dynamically:
HAS_DYNAMICLOAD=OFF
Link internal libraries statically:
HAS_SHARED_LIBS=OFF
The protocols supported by nchat is controlled by the following cmake flags:
HAS_DUMMY=ON
HAS_TELEGRAM=ON
HAS_WHATSAPP=ON
It is possible to enable / disable protocols by passing one or multiple flags to cmake:
mkdir -p build && cd build
cmake -DHAS_WHATSAPP=OFF .. && make -s
Similarly the make.sh script provides options, example:
./make.sh --no-telegram build
and
./make.sh --no-whatsapp build
