7 | Eigen consists only of header files, hence there is nothing to compile
|
---|
8 | before you can use it. Moreover, these header files do not depend on your
|
---|
9 | platform, they are the same for everybody.
|
---|

|
---|
11 | Method 1. Installing without using CMake
|
---|
12 | ****************************************
|
---|
13 |
|
---|
14 | You can use right away the headers in the Eigen/ subdirectory. In order
|
---|
15 | to install, just copy this Eigen/ subdirectory to your favorite location.
|
---|
16 | If you also want the unsupported features, copy the unsupported/
|
---|
17 | subdirectory too.
|

19 | Method 2. Installing using CMake
|

|

|
---|
22 | Let's call this directory 'source_dir' (where this INSTALL file is).
|
---|
23 | Before starting, create another directory which we will call 'build_dir'.
|
---|
24 |
|
---|
25 | Do:
|
---|
26 |
|
---|
27 | cd build_dir
|
---|
28 | cmake source_dir
|
---|
29 | make install
|
---|
30 |
|
---|
31 | The "make install" step may require administrator privileges.
|
---|
32 |
|
---|
33 | You can adjust the installation destination (the "prefix")
|
---|
34 | by passing the -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=myprefix option to cmake, as is
|
---|
35 | explained in the message that cmake prints at the end.
