To configure and compile SILC package give the comands:
./configure
- make (or gmake)
+ make (or gmake, GNU make is required)
make install
This will install the SILC binaries and configuration files into the
few options that you might want to use. Please refer to the rest of this
file for more generic installation instructions.
-`--with-gmp=PATH'
+`--with-gmp[=DIR]'
If you wish to use GMP library for arbitrary precision arithmetic
library instead of using the MPI library included in the package, you can
-give the --with-gmp=PATH option to the `configure'. The PATH is the path
-to the GMP library in your system.
+give the --with-gmp[=DIR] option to the `configure'. The DIR is the upper
+path in your system which contains lib/ and include/ for GMP library.
+
+'--with-iconv[=DIR]'
+
+ If your system doesn't provide iconv() function in its native libraries
+(usually libc) or if this function is broken (e.g. older Solaris systems),
+you may want to use libiconv instead. The DIR is the upper path in your
+system which contains lib/ and include/ for libiconv (e.g. /usr/local).
+
+`--without-pthreads'
+
+ If you do not want to compile the programs with POSIX multi-threads
+support you can give --without-pthreads option. In this case all compiled
+programs will work in single thread only.
`--disable-asm'
If you would like to enable the debugging for the compiled programs
you can give this option to the `configure'.
-`--disable-threads'
-
- If you do not want to compile the programs with multi threads support
-you can give --disable-threads option. In this case all compiled programs
-will work in single thread only.
-
`--enable-ipv6'
The `configure' will attempt to check for IPv6 support in your system.
- However, if it fails, but you still want to compile in the IPv6 support
- you can give --enable-ipv6 option to force the IPv6 support.
