    1. BUILDING AND INSTALLATION

    CMake (Unix)

    mkdir build && cd build
    cmake ..     # Default to Unix Makefiles.
    make
    make verify  # (optional)

    See Documentation/Building#Building on Unix using CMake for more information.

    CMake (Windows)

    Install CMake: https://cmake.org/

    md build && cd build
    cmake -G "Visual Studio 10" ..   # Or use any generator you want to use. Run cmake --help for a list
    cmake --build . --config Release # Or "start libevent.sln" and build with menu in Visual Studio.

    See Documentation/Building#Building on Windows for more information.

    Package Managers

    You can download and install libevent using the vcpkg dependency manager:

    git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg.git
    cd vcpkg
    ./bootstrap-vcpkg.sh
    ./vcpkg integrate install
    ./vcpkg install libevent

    The libevent port in vcpkg is kept up to date by Microsoft team members and community contributors. If the version is out of date, please create an issue or pull request on the vcpkg repository.

    Autoconf

    Note, since 2.2 it is deprecated

    ./configure
    make
    make verify   # (optional)
