You first need to install GMP, the GNU Multiprecision Arithmetic Library, 16 1.1 mrg see <http://gmplib.org/>, and GNU MPFR, see <http://www.mpfr.org>. 17 1.1 mrg GNU MPC requires GMP version 4.3.2 or later 18 1.1 mrg and GNU MPFR version 2.4.2 or later. 19 1.1 mrg 20 1.1 mrg 1. In the directory of the GNU MPC archive, type 21 1.1 mrg 22 1.1 mrg tar xzf mpc-1.0.1.tar.gz 23 1.1 mrg cd mpc-1.0.1 24 1.1 mrg ./configure 25 1.1 mrg make 26 1.1 mrg 27 1.1 mrg This assumes that GMP and GNU MPFR are installed in a directory searched 28 1.1 mrg by default by the compiler. Otherwise, use --with-gmp=DIR or 29 1.1 mrg --with-mpfr=DIR with ./configure (see the Texinfo documentation). 30 1.1 mrg 31 1.1 mrg 2. You should run the test suite, type 32 1.1 mrg 33 1.1 mrg make check 34 1.1 mrg 35 1.1 mrg If any error occurs, please report it on the mailing list 36 1.1 mrg <mpc-discuss (a] lists.gforge.inria.fr>, or file a bug at the bug tracker 37 1.1 mrg <https://gforge.inria.fr/tracker/?atid=607&group_id=131&func=browse> . 38 1.1 mrg 39 1.1 mrg 3. To install the GNU MPC library, type 40 1.1 mrg 41 1.1 mrg make install 42 1.1 mrg 43 1.1 mrg By default, the files are copied into subdirectories of /usr/local. 44 1.1 mrg You need write permissions on these directories, or pass an alternative 45 1.1 mrg installation directory using the --prefix option to ./configure. 46 1.1 mrg 47 1.1 mrg 4. You can optionally create documentation, type 48 1.1 mrg 49 1.1 mrg make dvi 50 1.1 mrg 51 1.1 mrg or 52 1.1 mrg 53 1.1 mrg make ps 54 1.1 mrg 55 1.1 mrg This requires the Texinfo package (version 4.2 at least). 56 1.1 mrg 57 1.1 mrg In case of difficulties, please send a description of the problem to 58 1.1 mrg <mpc-discuss (a] lists.gforge.inria.fr>. 59 1.1 mrg 60 1.1 mrg ############################################################################## 61 1.1 mrg 62 1.1 mrg Note for AIX users: 63 1.1 mrg =================== 64 1.1 mrg 65 1.1 mrg If GMP was built with the 64-bit ABI, before building and testing GNU MPC, 66 1.1 mrg it might be necessary to set the OBJECT_MODE environment variable to 64 67 1.1 mrg by, e.g., 68 1.1 mrg export OBJECT_MODE=64 69 1.1 mrg This has been tested with the C compiler IBM XL C/C++ Enterprise Edition 70 1.1 mrg V8.0 for AIX, version: 08.00.0000.0021, GMP 4.2.4 and GNU MPFR 2.4.1. 71 1.1 mrg 72 1.1 mrg ############################################################################## 73 1.1 mrg 74 1.1 mrg Note for Windows users: 75 1.1 mrg ======================= 76 1.1 mrg 77 1.1 mrg There is a special file Makefile.vc for Windows, contributed by Mickal 78 1.1 mrg Gastineau. This file works both for the Windows Server 2003 R2 Platform SDK, 79 1.1 mrg and for the Windows SDK of Vista. To use it, simply replace "make" by 80 1.1 mrg "nmake /f makefile.vc" in the above instructions: 81 1.1 mrg 82 1.1 mrg compilation : 83 1.1 mrg nmake /f makefile.vc GMP=<gmp_install_dir> MPFR=<mpfr_install_dir> 84 1.1 mrg 85 1.1 mrg clean : 86 1.1 mrg nmake /f makefile.vc GMP=<gmp_install_dir> MPFR=<mpfr_install_dir> clean 87 1.1 mrg 88 1.1 mrg check : 89 1.1 mrg nmake /f makefile.vc GMP=<gmp_install_dir> MPFR=<mpfr_install_dir> check 90 1.1 mrg 91 1.1 mrg If you want to compile mpc with mingw in the msys shell, you might need to 92 1.1 mrg add the following to the configure command (or in your environment): 93 1.1 mrg 94 1.1 mrg LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include 95 1.1 mrg 96 1.1 mrg In addition, you might need to give the following additional argument to 97 1.1 mrg configure (reported for mpc-0.9): 98 1.1 mrg 99 1.1 mrg CPP="x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc -E" 100 1.1 mrg 101 1.1 mrg (reported by Sisyphus) 102
