Installation
Although xtl
is a header-only library, we provide standardized means to install it, with package managers or with cmake.
Besides the xtl headers, all these methods place the cmake
project configuration file in the right location so that third-party projects can use cmake’s find_package
to locate xtl headers.
Using the conda-forge package
A package for xtl is available for the mamba (or conda) package manager.
mamba install -c conda-forge xtl
Using the Spack package
A package for xtl is available on the Spack package manager.
spack install xtl
spack load xtl
From source with cmake
You can also install xtl
from source with cmake. On Unix platforms, from the source directory:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/prefix ..
make install
On Windows platforms, from the source directory:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -G "NMake Makefiles" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/prefix ..
nmake
nmake install
See the section of the documentation on Build and configuration, for more details on how to cmake options.
