Installing from source

These are generic installation instructions. Building from source requires cmake to be installed (https://cmake.org/).

Overview

The simplest way to compile this package is:

1. cd to the directory containing the package’s source code and type cmake . to configure the package for your system. This will build madnex in place.

   However, we strongly recommend building madnex out of the source tree as follows:

   • Create a build directory et go in this directory
   • Call cmake <path_to_madnex_SOURCES> to configure the directory

   Useful options are listed below.

   Running cmake takes awhile. While running, it prints some messages telling which features it is checking for.

2. Type make to compile the package.

3. Optionally, type make check to run any self-tests that come with the package.

4. Type make install to install the programs and any data files and documentation.

5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the source code directory by typing make clean.

Options

• enable-website: generate the TFEL website (enabled by default if pandoc is found)
• enable-portable-build: do not use processor specific flags.
• enable-doxygen-doc: enable the generation of the API documentation using with Doxygen.

cmake usefull variables
