GMP PERL MODULE INSTALLATION
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This module can be compiled within the GMP source directory or moved
|
|
|
|
elsewhere and compiled. An installed GMP can be used, or a specified
|
|
|
|
GMP build tree. Both static and shared GMP builds will work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The simplest case is when GMP has been installed to a standard system
|
|
|
|
location
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
perl Makefile.PL
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If not yet installed then the top-level GMP build directory must be
|
|
|
|
specified
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
perl Makefile.PL GMP_BUILDDIR=/my/gmp/build
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In any case, with the module built, the sample program provided can be
|
|
|
|
run
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
perl -Iblib/arch sample.pl
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
If you built a shared version of libmpir but haven't yet installed it,
|
2008-04-17 17:03:07 -04:00
|
|
|
then it might be necessary to add a run-time path to it. For example
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/my/gmp/build/.libs perl -Iblib/arch sample.pl
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Documentation is provided in pod format in GMP.pm, and will have been
|
|
|
|
"man"-ified in the module build
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
man -l blib/man3/GMP.3pm
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
man -M`pwd`/blib GMP
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A test script is provided, running a large number of more or less
|
|
|
|
trivial checks
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
make test
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The module and its documentation can be installed in the usual way
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This will be into /usr/local or wherever the perl Config module
|
|
|
|
directs, but that can be controlled back at the Makefile.PL stage with
|
|
|
|
the usual ExtUtils::MakeMaker options.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once installed, programs using the GMP module become simply
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
perl sample.pl
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And the documentation read directly too
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
man GMP
|
