How to build axis2c Unofficial source code

I have to create SOAP services in C using axis2C. But since axis2C is kind of not maintained properly as per this question, I have to use axis2C unofficial source code. But I could not see configure file to build the sources. How should I build this. I checked all the documentation both in here and in the github repo but no luck. All points to the axis2C official documentation. Should I copy the sources from unofficial to official code and try with the configure script in official folder ?

This project probably uses the GNU build system. In this system, ./configure is a portable shell script that is automatically generated from hand-written input files, the main file is configure.ac.

So, distribution packages of the source will contain ./configure, therefore enabling anyone on any platform with a sh-compatible shell and a make utility to build the software. But as it is a generated file, you will not find it in source-code repositories, e.g. on github.

To build a package using the GNU build system directly from source controls, you have to use the GNU autotools yourself to generate ./configure. In order to do this, install the following packages:

• autoconf -- generates ./configure from ./configure.ac.
• automake -- generates portable makefile templates Makefile.in from Makefile.am (those templates are then filled with values by the ./configure script to write the final Makefiles)
• libtool -- tools for building dynamic shared objects on different platforms

Then, the command autoreconf -i given in the root of your source package should generate the ./configure script for you.

Note that there are packages providing a script ./autogen.sh (or similarly named). If this is there, you should call it instead of running autoreconf -i yourself, it might contain additional necessary preparation steps. ./autogen.sh will typically directly run the generated ./configure for you.
