Quick Installation
==================
- To configure and compile SILC package give the commands:
+ To configure and compile SILC Runtime Toolkit give the commands:
./configure
- make (or gmake)
+ make
make install
- This will install the SILC binaries and configuration files into the
-/usr/local/silc/ directory. System wide configuration files are installed
-into the /etc/silc/ directory.
-
-You may need to add the /usr/local/silc path to your PATH environment
-variable after the installation.
-
Configuration Options
=====================
few options that you might want to use. Please refer to the rest of this
file for more generic installation instructions.
-`--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[=DIR] option to the `configure'. The DIR is the upper
-path in your system which contains lib/ and include/ for GMP library.
- Note that MPI is the prefered arbitrary precision arithmetic library and
-GMP can be used as a fall-back if you have problems with the MPI library
-included within this package.
-
`--with-iconv[=DIR]'
If your system doesn't provide iconv() function in its native libraries
option to the `configure' script. This will assure that assembler
optimized code is not compiled in.
-`--enabled-shared'
-
- If you wish to compile and install shared libraries then enable this
-option. By default all libraries are compiled as static libraries.
-
`--enable-debug'
If you would like to enable the debugging for the compiled programs
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.
+`--disable-cpu-optimizations'
+
+ By default the configure script will attempt to detect the type of your
+CPU and enable any features specific to your CPU that could optimize the
+performance of the Toolkit. If you are creating binary package that should
+work on any CPU (and not only your CPU) you should diable these
+optimizations. If you compile it for yourself only, keeping the
+optimizations enabled is recommended.
