\page install How to install BDM

BDM is written as a multiplatform library, which was tested on Linux, Windows and Mac OSX.
However, installation on each platform is specific.

BDM comes in two basic versions:
<dl>
 <dt> binary  <dd> with precompiled executables and matlab mex files that can be configured by external text files
 <dt> source code <dd>  that can be compiled into any required form. 
 
</dl>
 
\section bin Binary form

Distribution of the binary form is not currently available. 


\section src Source code

is available from svn repository:
http://mys.utia.cas.cz:1800/svn/mixpp

For download use an appropriate SVN client http://subversion.tigris.org/links.html#clients

\subsection pre Prerequisities

You need to have the following tools available on your system:
 * working C++ compiler, e.g. gcc on Linux, or Visual Studio on windows
 * CMake a cross-platform build system, http://www.cmake.org
 * ITPP library, http://itpp.sourceforge.net/ which is a part of all major linux distributions, for its installation on Windows, see Section Windows.
 
\subsection lin Linux

All prerequisities are available as binary packages for most distribution. E.g. for debian-based distributions, use
\code
apt-get install g++ cmake libitpp-dev 
\endcode

Compile the BDM library and its applications using 
\code
$ cd directory/with/bdm/sources
$ cmake .
$ make
\endcode

\subsection win Windows

The following approach was tested on Visual Studio 9, so we recommend to download and install it. 
http://www.microsoft.com/express/vc/

Make sure you have cmake installed.

Expert users are advised to download and compile their ITPP version following a guide on : 
http://itpp.sourceforge.net/current/installation.html

For convenience of the beginners, DLLS of the ACML and lib+include files for ITPP and ACML are
provided at: http://staff.utia.cas.cz/smidl/Public/mixpp_win32lib.zip
If you want to use them copy the content of the zip file to win32\ directory and
make sure to set your PATH environment variable:
\code
 Path = %PATH%; <mixpp_dir>\win32\dll
 \endcode
Otherwise you will not be able to run any programs.


Compilation of BDM:

 * When everything is set-up, make a copy of win32/run_cmake.bat, edit it 
  to reflect your environment (i.e. change paths to cmake and your C++ target environment) 
  and run it.

 * It should generate build files for your compiler in the main BDM 
  directory
