Source distribution

This section explains how to compile libenki from the source distribution.

Prerequisites

To compile libenki and programs who depend on it, you need:

a working and fairly recent c++ compiler, such as http://gcc.gnu.org "GCC"
http://www.cmake.org "CMake"
A build environment compatible with CMake.

Compilation

Those short instructions assume that you want to use http://www.gnu.org/software/make/ "GNU make" to build Enki. If you want to use another build environment, such as Microsoft Visual Studio, please refer to http://www.cmake.org/HTML/Documentation.html "cmake documentation". Once you have downloaded and extracted the libenki source distribution, either from a released version or from http://subversion.tigris.org "SVN", you can create the Makefiles by running:

cmake .

and then build Enki by running:

make

You can also change the build options by running:

ccmake .

prior to cmake.
