Jason Ish 2421b024f2 examples: program linking against library
Provide an example of an extremely simple application that links
against Suricata. This provides a Makefile integrated with the
Suricata build system for in-tree building, as well as an example
Makefile for building out of tree.

Currently this application just wraps SuricataMain and does nothing
else.

Simple Library Example

Building In Tree

The Suricata build system has created a Makefile that should allow you to build this application in-tree on most supported platforms. To build simply run:

make

Building Out of Tree

A Makefile.example has also been generated to use as an example on how to build against the library in a standalone application.

First build and install the Suricata library including:

make install-library
make install-headers

Then run:

make -f Makefile.example

If you installed to a non-standard location, you need to ensure that libsuricata-config is in your path, for example:

PATH=/opt/suricata/bin:$PATH make -f Makefile.example
