How To Install castxml on CentOS 8

castxml is C-family abstract syntax tree XML output tool

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install castxml on CentOS 8.

What is castxml

Parse C-family source files and optionally write a subset of the Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) to a representation in XML. Source files are parsed as complete translation units using the clang compiler. XML output is enabled by the –castxml-gccxml option and produces a format close to that of gccxml. Future versions of castxml may support alternative output formats.

We can use yum or dnf to install castxml on CentOS 8. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install castxml.

Install castxml on CentOS 8 Using dnf

Update yum database with dnf using the following command.

sudo dnf makecache --refresh

The output should look something like this:
