Installation Instructions ========================= Since you are reading this I assume you already obtained one of the release tarballs and successfully extracted it. The latest version of LEMON is available at our web page (http://lemon.cs.elte.hu/). LEMON provides two different build environments, one is based on "autotool", while the other is based on "cmake". This file contains instructions only for the former one, which is the recommended build environment on Linux, Mac OSX and other unices or if you use Cygwin on Windows. For cmake installation instructions visit http://lemon.cs.elte.hu. In order to install LEMON from the extracted source tarball you have to issue the following commands: 1. `cd lemon-x.y.z' This command changes to the directory which was created when you extracted the sources. The x.y.z part is a version number. 2. `./configure' This command runs the configure shell script, which does some checks and creates the makefiles. 3. `make' This command compiles the non-template part of LEMON into libemon.a file. It also compiles the programs in the tools subdirectory by default. 4. `make check' This step is optional, but recommended. It runs the test programs that we developed for LEMON to check whether the library works properly on your platform. 5. `make install' This command installs LEMON under /usr/local (you will need root privileges to be able to do that). If you want to install it to some other location, then pass the --prefix=DIRECTORY flag to configure in step 2. For example: `./configure --prefix=/home/username/lemon'. 6. `make install-html' This command installs the documentation under share/doc/lemon/docs. The generated documentation is included in the tarball. If you want to generate it yourself, then run `make html'. Note that for this you need to have the following programs installed: Doxygen, Graphviz, Ghostscript, Latex. Configure Options and Variables =============================== In step 2 you can customize the actions of configure by setting variables and passing options to it. This can be done like this: `./configure [OPTION]... [VARIABLE=VALUE]...' Below you will find some useful variables and options (see `./configure --help' for more): CXX='comp' Change the C++ compiler to 'comp'. CXXFLAGS='flags' Pass the 'flags' to the compiler. For example CXXFLAGS='-O3 -march=pentium-m' turns on generation of aggressively optimized Pentium-M specific code. --prefix=PREFIX Set the installation prefix to PREFIX. By default it is /usr/local. --enable-tools Build the programs in the tools subdirectory (default). --disable-tools Do not build the programs in the tools subdirectory. --with-glpk[=PREFIX] Enable GLPK support (default). You should specify the prefix too if you installed GLPK to some non-standard location (e.g. your home directory). If it is not found, GLPK support will be disabled. --with-glpk-includedir=DIR The directory where the GLPK header files are located. This is only useful when the GLPK headers and libraries are not under the same prefix (which is unlikely). --with-glpk-libdir=DIR The directory where the GLPK libraries are located. This is only useful when the GLPK headers and libraries are not under the same prefix (which is unlikely). --without-glpk Disable GLPK support. --with-cplex[=PREFIX] Enable CPLEX support (default). You should specify the prefix too if you installed CPLEX to some non-standard location (e.g. /opt/ilog/cplex75). If it is not found, CPLEX support will be disabled. --with-cplex-includedir=DIR The directory where the CPLEX header files are located. This is only useful when the CPLEX headers and libraries are not under the same prefix (e.g. /usr/local/cplex/cplex75/include). --with-cplex-libdir=DIR The directory where the CPLEX libraries are located. This is only useful when the CPLEX headers and libraries are not under the same prefix (e.g. /usr/local/cplex/cplex75/lib/i86_linux2_glibc2.2_gcc3.0/static_pic_mt). --without-cplex Disable CPLEX support. --with-soplex[=PREFIX] Enable SoPlex support (default). You should specify the prefix too if you installed SoPlex to some non-standard location (e.g. your home directory). If it is not found, SoPlex support will be disabled. --with-soplex-includedir=DIR The directory where the SoPlex header files are located. This is only useful when the SoPlex headers and libraries are not under the same prefix (which is unlikely). --with-soplex-libdir=DIR The directory where the SoPlex libraries are located. This is only useful when the SoPlex headers and libraries are not under the same prefix (which is unlikely). --without-soplex Disable SoPlex support. --with-coin[=PREFIX] Enable support for COIN-OR solvers (CLP and CBC). You should specify the prefix too. (by default, COIN-OR tools install themselves to the source code directory). This command enables the solvers that are actually found. --with-coin-includedir=DIR The directory where the COIN-OR header files are located. This is only useful when the COIN-OR headers and libraries are not under the same prefix (which is unlikely). --with-coin-libdir=DIR The directory where the COIN-OR libraries are located. This is only useful when the COIN-OR headers and libraries are not under the same prefix (which is unlikely). --without-coin Disable COIN-OR support.
