编译和使用bsdiff

在android开发中，越到后面生成apk文件越来越大，每次用户更新都是全部下载更新，浪费时间和流量，如果能增量更新就不错了，使用bsdiff就是为了生成更新包

bsdiff下载地址：http://www.daemonology.net/bsdiff/

下载后解压文件，到文件目录中，执行make

你会发现不能通过，报错了

Makefile:13: *** missing separator.  Stop.

这是makefile文件的内容的格式不对，

CFLAGS          +=      -O3 -lbz2

PREFIX          ?=      /usr/local
INSTALL_PROGRAM ?=      ${INSTALL} -c -s -m 555
INSTALL_MAN     ?=      ${INSTALL} -c -m 444

all:            bsdiff bspatch
bsdiff:         bsdiff.c
bspatch:        bspatch.c

install:
        ${INSTALL_PROGRAM} bsdiff bspatch ${PREFIX}/bin
        .ifndef WITHOUT_MAN
        ${INSTALL_MAN} bsdiff.1 bspatch.1 ${PREFIX}/man/man1
        .endif

13行开始到最后前面加TAB，为什么要这样请自行查阅makefile的规则了

保存后再make

还是有问题，不过bsdiff正常生成了

make: *** [bspatch] Error 1

错误很明显，找不到u_char等，因为缺少了头文件

在文件中加入

#include <sys/types.h>

一般这个文件会放到/usr/include/sys/types.h，可以自行查看源码，很简单

再次make就好了

 

bsdiff使用很简单

bsdiff oldfile newfile patchfile

oldfile:旧的文件

newfile:生成的新文件

patchfile:生成的patch文件
