Hello everyone,

I would like to use lemon graph to write some code for my optimizition course.
I also would like to work with Visual Studio 2008.

I read your installation description and I am confussed about some of the steps.
I downloaded lemon 1.2.2.zip and unzipped it, so now I have a folder named "lemon-1.2.2".

I also downloaded cmake.

I struggel with the "Configure the Cmake" part:

"We suggest to create a subfolder called build in the root of the source code repository."

What do you mean by "root of the source code repository"? I don't know, where to create this folder?

"Then start the CMake GUI and browse the source code and the build folders. "

What is the source code? In my "lemon-1.2.2" folder are many cpp and header files? Do I have to choose a specific subfolder in "lemon-1.2.2"?
What are the build folders? Do you mean the build folder I have to create? But I have to create one single subfolder build, don't I?

Maybe there is an easier way, since I do only simple things like writing a prim or a djikstra code.

I appreciate any help I can get.
Thank you very much,

Valentina Gerber
