BNMin1

Building

This library uses the standard GNU autoconf build tool chain – see Autoconf for end-users for general information on how to configure and build.

Some packages that you will definitely need to compile BNMin1 are:

• C/C++/F77 compiler (gcc 3.x and 4.x should be supported)
  • Note that f2c-type compilers (e.g., fort77) may not work
• Boost C++ libraries (>= 1.34 as of time of writing)
• SWIG (>= 1.3.31 as of time of writing)
• GSL (>= V1.9 as of time of writing)

Quick-start building V1.8

Assuming that you have all the dependencies installed, this shell script will build and install BNMin1

# Destination directory -- obviously adjust to your preference
export INSTALLDIR=/home/bnikolic/temp/buildtest

# Install BNMin1 
wget http://www.mrao.cam.ac.uk/~bn204/soft/bnmin1-1.8.tar.bz2
tar xjvf bnmin1-1.8.tar.bz2
cd bnmin1-1.8
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$INSTALLDIR/lib PATH=$INSTALLDIR/bin:$PATH ./configure --prefix=$INSTALLDIR
make && make install && cd ..

Doesn’t work? Then:

1. Check output of “configure” script to see which dependencies are missing
2. Consult Autoconf for end-users
3. Email me, and please attach the “config.log” file
