To understand the code a bit more...…

To get a bit deeper in pgrouting again some questions. I see the source code of pgrouting 1.0.0a on my debain machine.

For example: The data dijkstra.c , dijkstra.h and dijkstra.o contain the dijkstra-algorith, I think? Are they written in C/C++ ??

The data configure and configure.in, in which language are they written? Ore are they shell-skripts? What is their function?

Especially "configure" seems to be so difficult, not only because of it`s size, oh dear..........

The data: librouting.a librouting.so , librouting.so.0 librouting.so.0.0

If I open them in an editor they are so cryptic. Its binary-code isnt it? But how are they created?

Well, I think to understand pgRouting I have to get in C/C++. Thanks again, Kai

    Hi Kai, It is better to move to the newer version which uses cmake. It has a different directory structure which makes it more clear.
