We use the 'scons' tool to build the library, unit tests,
documentation and examples. You'll need to obtain a copy
from http://www.scons.org/ or from your system distributor.
From the top-level directory, run the following commands
Once scons is installed, invoke 'scons' in the top-level
directory to build the library. This will create a static
library (also in the top-level) directory which can be
linked into other programs. The public api is defined
in <strophe.h> which is also in the top-level directory.
NOTE: By default libstrophe uses expat as it's XML parser.
You may pass in --with-libxml2 with the ./configure command
to switch to using libxml2 as your XML parser.
Invoke 'scons test' in the top-level directory to execute
the unit and self tests.
$ ./bootstrap.sh
$ ./configure
or
$ ./configure --with-libxml2
$ make

The examples/ directory contains some examples of how to
use the library; these may be helpful in addition to the
