Installation instructions for Eigen
|
||||
***********************************
|
||||
|
||||
Explanation before starting
|
||||
***************************
|
||||
|
||||
It is very important to understand than Eigen consists only of header files,
|
||||
hence there is nothing to compile before you can use it. Moreover, these
|
||||
header files do not depend on your platform, they are the same for
|
||||
everybody.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Method 1. Installing without using CMake
|
||||
****************************************
|
||||
|
||||
You can use right away the headers in the Eigen/ subdirectory. In order
|
||||
to install, just copy this Eigen/ subdirectory to your favorite location.
|
||||
If you also want the unsupported features, also copy the unsupported/
|
||||
subdirectory.
|
||||
|
||||
Method 2. Installing using CMake
|
||||
********************************
|
||||
|
||||
Let's call this directory 'source_dir'. Before starting, create another
|
||||
directory which we will call 'build_dir'.
|
||||
|
||||
Do:
|
||||
|
||||
cd build_dir
|
||||
cmake source_dir
|
||||
make install
|
||||
|
||||
The "make install" step may require administrator privileges.
|
||||
|
||||
You can adjust the installation destination (the "prefix")
|
||||
by passing the -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=myprefix option to cmake, as is
|
||||
explained in the message that cmake prints at the end.
