GKlib

A library of various helper routines and frameworks used by many of the lab's software

Build requirements

Assuming that the above are available, two commands should suffice to build the software:

make config 
make

Configuring the build

It is primarily configured by passing options to make config. For example:

make config cc=icc

would configure it to be built using icc.

Configuration options are:

cc=[compiler]     - The C compiler to use [default: gcc]
prefix=[PATH]     - Set the installation prefix [default: ~/local]
openmp=set        - To build a version with OpenMP support

Building and installing

To build and install, run the following

make
make install

By default, the library file, header file, and binaries will be installed in

~/local/lib
~/local/include
~/local/bin

Other make commands

make uninstall 
     Removes all files installed by 'make install'.

make clean 
     Removes all object files but retains the configuration options.

make distclean 
     Performs clean and completely removes the build directory.
