00018 BUILDING EO
00019 ==================================================================
00020 The basic installation procedure goes the following:
00021
00022 Go to your build-directory and run
00023 $(SRCDIR)/configure
00024 make
00025 make check
00026 make install
00027 where $(SRCDIR) is the top-level source directory of EO, i.e. where
00028 the sources where unpacked.
00029
00030 See $(SRCDIR)/configure for possible options. You can specify to not
00031 build example applications, the tutorial, or to build the ParadisEO
00032 tutorial. You may also change the installation directory that way.
00033
00034 Now you should probably go to the tutorial and start learning about EO
00035 features and programming.
00036
00037
00038 In case of problems, you can read the INSTALL file - but remember this
00039 is a standard installation file from GNU and that it contains nothing
00040 specific about EO.
