gitlost ab3cf4f395 eci.c: replace libiconv-adapted code with own implementations so
as to fully comply with BSD license (for why Library GPL 2+ not
  compatible see https://opensource.stackexchange.com/a/6701),
  ~3% slower (maybe), +~6K extra in data
  (gb18030.c, gb2313.c & sjis.c removed, mapping .TXT files moved
  to backend/tools/data & extra ones added, 2 new PHP generators)
GUI: CODE39/EXCODE39: show/hide HIBC check digit option in addition
  to enable/disable (less confusing)
CLI: batch: pedantic check for EOF using intChar in newline fgetc()
  loop
test_args.c: don't use WIFEXITED(), WEXITSTATUS() on Windows
manual: lessen some copy/paste verbiage by referring back, other
  small tweaks/typos

Prerequisites for building zint
-------------------------------
Prerequisites are git, cmake, make, gcc and gcc-c++, e.g. Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt install git cmake build-essential
or Fedora (git, make and gcc should already be installed)
sudo dnf install cmake gcc-c++
libpng is optional but necessary for PNG support, e.g. Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt install libpng-dev
or Fedora
sudo dnf install libpng-devel
Prerequisites for building zint-qt
----------------------------------
Sign up and download the Qt Maintenance Tool from
https://www.qt.io/download-qt-installer
On Ubuntu/Debian you may need to install xinerama to run the tool:
sudo apt install libxcb-xinerama0
Launch the tool and install the "Desktop gcc 64-bit" component for either Qt
5.15.2 or Qt 6 (>= 6.1).
Once Qt is installed you may need to tell CMake where it is:
export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<qt-version-dir>/gcc_64
e.g. export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/opt/Qt/5.15.2/gcc_64
To build zint-qt you also need to install mesa (for OpenGL), e.g. Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt install mesa-common-dev libglu1-mesa-dev
or Fedora
sudo dnf install mesa-libGL mesa-libGL-devel
Build
-----
The rest is standard CMake
git clone https://git.code.sf.net/p/zint/code zint
cd zint
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
sudo make install
CMake options
-------------
A number of options are available:
ZINT_COVERAGE:BOOL=OFF # Set code coverage flags
ZINT_DEBUG:BOOL=OFF # Set debug compile flags
ZINT_NOOPT:BOOL=OFF # Set no optimize compile flags
ZINT_SANITIZE:BOOL=OFF # Set sanitize compile/link flags
ZINT_STATIC:BOOL=OFF # Build static library
ZINT_TEST:BOOL=OFF # Set test compile flag
ZINT_USE_PNG:BOOL=ON # Build with PNG support
ZINT_USE_QT:BOOL=ON # Build with Qt support
which can be set by doing e.g.
cmake -DZINT_SANITIZE=ON ..

"backend/tests/README".
