TO simplify the link and compilation part,
I have add 3 files
examples++-load/WHERE_LIBRARY
examples++-load/WHERE_LIBRARY-download
examples++-load/WHERE_LIBRARY-config
On my mac I have install gsl with MacPorts
MBA-de-FH:~ hecht$ more work/ff++/examples++-load/WHERE_LIBRARY
gsl LD -L/opt/local/lib/ -lgsl
gsl INCLUDE -I/opt/local/include/
MBA-de-FH:~ hecht$
the files
examples++-load/WHERE_LIBRARY-config
examples++-load/WHERE_LIBRARY-download
are restectively created with ./configure commande ,
the compilation of all downlaod software.
and the examples++-load/Makefile.
The use of commande compile with search of include and lib.

For debian, ubuntu, MacOS, Windows see the the prerequisite
installed packages before configuration and compilatation.
This file details specific configuration details for FreeFem++. For
a standard installation, please refer to the file named "INSTALL".
annd see the end of this file to have some
configure example:
Full version 3d need automatic download option
----------------------------------
For a Full 3d version , some external piece of software
can by usefull, the simplest wait is to add "--enable-download"
to the "./configure" (need of "wget" or "curl" unix command).
The download archive are store in :
download/pkg/SuiteSparse-2.4.0.tar.gz # umpack
download/pkg/arpack96.tar.gz # arpack
download/pkg/f2c.tar # f2c if no fortran 77
download/pkg/fftw-3.2.1.tar.gz # fft
download/pkg/patch.tar.gz # arpack
download/pkg/superlu_3.1.tar.gz # superlu
download/pkg/tetgen1.4.2.tar.gz # tetgen
download/blas/cblas.tgz # blas
if you have not internet access juste copie this files at the same place.
Debugging and optimization
--------------------------
Without any option, "./configure" selects the best optimization
options for the local machine. To produce optimized binaries that can
be ported to other machines, add the option "--enable-generic".
To produce FreeFem++ programs containing debugging symbols and no
optimization, use "--enable-debug".
If you need to add specific flags to the ones that ./configure
chooses, just define the corresponding automake variable before
running configure. For instance, to add flag "-x" to C++ compilations,
say:
> CXXFLAGS=-x ./configure
Other useful configuration variables include:
- CFLAGS for C compilation
- FFLAGS for Fortran compilation
- LIBS libraries for the linking stage
- LDFLAGS linking flags
- LDADD extra options for the linking stage
- F77 the fortran compile (if not fortran is installed see section NOFORTRAN)
- FC the fortran 90 compiler
- CC the cc compiler
- CXX the c++ compiler
Linear algebra libraries and eigen value problem
-----------------------------------------------
By default, "./configure" looks for the X11, BLAS, ARPACK and UMFPACK, OpenGL, GLUT
libraries on the local system.
ARPACK is use to compute eigenvalue.
and UMFPACK is a new fast sparse linear solver.
If configure cannot find the libraries
by itself, you can specify the full path to a library file (ending
with ".a") or the options use by the linker (ex: "-L/usr/local/lib -lblas")
with the following options:
--with-blas="blas linker options"
--with-arpack="arpack linker options"
--with-amd="amd linker options"
--with-umfpack="umfpack linker options"
Or, if the configuration flag "--enable-download" is specified, the
compilation step ("make") will try to download the missing libraries
(from their official websites) and compile them.
Remark, under linux or window the simplest way to get
a not to bad version is
./configure --enable-download
Here are the different versions of FreeFem++ produced by one
compilation (some versions may be missing if your system does not
support them):
* FreeFem++: standard version (using X11 graphics on Linux and MacOS
10, Win32 on Windows and MacOS X) (located in src/std)
* FreeFem++-nw: without graphics (located in src/nw)
* FreeFem++: graphics based on OpenGL (located in src/nw)
* ffglut: the graphic tools
* FreeFem++-mpi: parallel version, without graphics (located in src/mpi)
The compilation procedure (produced with automake) builds all the
libraries and executables sequentially. Running "make" in a
subdirectory does not rebuild dependencies in other directories.
The compilation has been tested under linux and MacOs/Darwin with g++
version 3.3. 4.0 4.4 It take 30 mn to compile all on
my PowerBook G4 1Mhz 1024MB.
Rebuilding "configure"
------------------------
Developers of FreeFem++ can rebuild the configuration system using
Automake and Autoconf with the command:
> autoreconf
# to reconfigure with the same parameter
> ./reconfigure
Extra utilities
---------------
To run an interactive test of FreeFem++:
> make visualcheck
To run a speed test:
> make speedtest
To create the documentation in .ps and .pdf format (in the "DOC" directory):
> make documentation
Examples
--------
All the Examples are in the two directories examples++ and
examples++-tutorial. The suffix is .edp ("equations aux derivees
partielles" in French)
To test all the examples under unix:
> cd examples++; ../src/std/FreeFem++ all.edp
> cd examples++-tutorial; ../src/std/FreeFem++ all.edp
To try the dynamic linking loader example:
remark: some adaptation must be done with the suffix probleme (.dll, .so, .dylib )
and directory to seach dynamic lib (shell variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH)
warning under Window XP, first install the cygwin environnent (see http://www.cygwin.com)
> cd example++-load build a dll file with the following shell script:
> ./ff-c++ myfunction.cpp
to execute the examples try
under window xp

or otherwise

Warning the default compile is now 64 bits,
2) install g95 fortron (to have a fortran 64 bits by default)
install macport from http://www.macports.org/
sudo port install g95
or add flags -m64 to the fortran command (not tested).
cd download/f2c
make install-10.6

* Under Windows:
----------------
see the end of README_WINDOW files
* NOFORTRAN:
------------
You have not fortran compiler use f2c and the use the script fort77
by the way just do:
cd download/f2c
# to build and install fort77, linf2c.a in download/bin download/lib
make install
# to install in /usr/local/
make install-sudo
# to build and universal f2c library on MacOS 10.4 and install in /usr/local/bin /usr/local/lib
# and in download/bin download/lib download/bin download/include
# 32/ 64 bits architecture on intel and ppc
make -n install-10.4
for the 64 on intel version 10.6 (SDK)
make -n install-10.6
