Installation

CMake is used to build the library. For default build use:

> mkdir build
> cd build
> cmake ../
> make

after the compilation the libraries and headers must be either installed system-wide by make install or PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH must be adjusted to point to headers and library files. The default install path can be change, ie: cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/catima

Alternative to the system-wide installation is to adjust library path and include paths. This can be done sourcing the init.sh file, which is generated in the build directory:

source init.sh

cmake options

compile options, enable or disable with cmake:

cmake ../ -D[OPTION]

available options:

  • BUILD_SHARED_LIBS - if ON shared library is build, otherwise static

  • PYTHON_MODULE - enable/disable building of the python bindigs, pybind11 is required to build the catima python module, default OFF

  • APPS - build command line app, default ON

  • TESTS - build tests, default OFF

  • EXAMPLES - build examples, default OFF

  • DOCS - prepare doxygen documentation (after cmake, make docs needs to be executed)

  • GENERATE_DATA - makes program to re-generate precalculated tables (ie precalculated LS coefficients), default:OFF

  • THIN_TARGET_APPROXIMATION - compile the library with thin target approximation, default: ON

  • GSL_INTEGRATION - use GSL integration functions, otherwise use built-in integrator, default: OFF

  • GLOBAL - compile with GLOBAL code (source not included at the moment, needs to be manually added to global directory, default:OFF)

  • STORE_SPLINES - store splines in cache, if disabled datapoints are stored and splines are recreated, default ON

ie:

cmake -DPYTHON_MODULE=ON -DEXAMPLES=ON ../
