Build dependencies are

• cmake and make (for the build system)
• sph-sc (to generate C sources from SC sources)
• indent (optional; to indent the generated sources)
• GNU Scientific Library (for vector and scientific functions)
• GNU Guile (for the scheme wrappers)

The easiest way to install these dependencies is to use GNU Guix.

$ guix shell

To build, run the following commands.

$ cmake -B build
$ make -C build

See examples in the examples directory. You can build and run them, for example, using the following commands. pre-inst-env is a shell wrapper that sets the necessary environment variables so that headers and dynamic libraries are found correctly.

$ ./build/pre-inst-env gcc -lgsl -lgslcblas -lnsmc examples/generate-cone-vector.c -o generate-cone-vector
$ ./build/pre-inst-env ./generate-cone-vector
