1 Installation Instructions
2 =========================
4 Since you are reading this I assume you already obtained one of the release
5 tarballs and successfully extracted it. The latest version of LEMON is
6 available at our web page (http://lemon.cs.elte.hu/).
8 LEMON provides two different build environments, one is based on "autotool",
9 while the other is based on "cmake". This file contains instructions only for
10 the former one, which is the recommended build environment on Linux, Mac OSX
11 and other unices or if you use Cygwin on Windows. For cmake installation
12 instructions visit http://lemon.cs.elte.hu.
14 In order to install LEMON from the extracted source tarball you have to
15 issue the following commands:
19 This command changes to the directory which was created when you
20 extracted the sources. The x.y.z part is a version number.
24 This command runs the configure shell script, which does some checks and
25 creates the makefiles.
29 This command compiles the non-template part of LEMON into libemon.a
30 file. It also compiles the programs in the tools and demo subdirectories
35 This step is optional, but recommended. It runs the test programs that
36 we developed for LEMON to check whether the library works properly on
41 This command installs LEMON under /usr/local (you will need root
42 privileges to be able to do that). If you want to install it to some
43 other location, then pass the --prefix=DIRECTORY flag to configure in
44 step 2. For example: `./configure --prefix=/home/username/lemon'.
46 6. `make install-html'
48 This command installs the documentation under share/doc/lemon/docs. The
49 generated documentation is included in the tarball. If you want to
50 generate it yourself, then run `make html'. Note that for this you need
51 to have the following programs installed: Doxygen, Graphviz, Ghostscript,
55 Configure Options and Variables
56 ===============================
58 In step 2 you can customize the actions of configure by setting variables
59 and passing options to it. This can be done like this:
60 `./configure [OPTION]... [VARIABLE=VALUE]...'
62 Below you will find some useful variables and options (see `./configure --help'
67 Change the C++ compiler to 'comp'.
71 Pass the 'flags' to the compiler. For example CXXFLAGS='-O3 -march=pentium-m'
72 turns on generation of aggressively optimized Pentium-M specific code.
76 Set the installation prefix to PREFIX. By default it is /usr/local.
80 Build the examples in the demo subdirectory.
84 Do not build the examples in the demo subdirectory (default).
88 Build the programs in the tools subdirectory (default).
92 Do not build the programs in the tools subdirectory.
96 Enable GLPK support (default). You should specify the prefix too if
97 you installed GLPK to some non-standard location (e.g. your home
98 directory). If it is not found, GLPK support will be disabled.
100 --with-glpk-includedir=DIR
102 The directory where the GLPK header files are located. This is only
103 useful when the GLPK headers and libraries are not under the same
104 prefix (which is unlikely).
106 --with-glpk-libdir=DIR
108 The directory where the GLPK libraries are located. This is only
109 useful when the GLPK headers and libraries are not under the same
110 prefix (which is unlikely).
114 Disable GLPK support.
116 --with-cplex[=PREFIX]
118 Enable CPLEX support (default). You should specify the prefix too
119 if you installed CPLEX to some non-standard location
120 (e.g. /opt/ilog/cplex75). If it is not found, CPLEX support will be
123 --with-cplex-includedir=DIR
125 The directory where the CPLEX header files are located. This is
126 only useful when the CPLEX headers and libraries are not under the
127 same prefix (e.g. /usr/local/cplex/cplex75/include).
129 --with-cplex-libdir=DIR
131 The directory where the CPLEX libraries are located. This is only
132 useful when the CPLEX headers and libraries are not under the same
134 /usr/local/cplex/cplex75/lib/i86_linux2_glibc2.2_gcc3.0/static_pic_mt).
138 Disable CPLEX support.
140 --with-soplex[=PREFIX]
142 Enable SoPlex support (default). You should specify the prefix too if
143 you installed SoPlex to some non-standard location (e.g. your home
144 directory). If it is not found, SoPlex support will be disabled.
146 --with-soplex-includedir=DIR
148 The directory where the SoPlex header files are located. This is only
149 useful when the SoPlex headers and libraries are not under the same
150 prefix (which is unlikely).
152 --with-soplex-libdir=DIR
154 The directory where the SoPlex libraries are located. This is only
155 useful when the SoPlex headers and libraries are not under the same
156 prefix (which is unlikely).
160 Disable SoPlex support.
