POSIX installation
Get the source
VLE First, copy or update the source tree from [Github](https://github.com/vle- forge).
With Git
cd $HOME
# you never git clone vle, the use git clone:
git clone git://github.com/vle-forge/vle.git
cd vle
# else, just update vle from git:
cd vle
git pull -r
With Wget or Curl
cd $HOME
wget http://vle-project.org/pub/vle/2.1/2.1.0/vle-2.1.0.tar.gz
tar zxf vle-2.1.0.tar.gz
cd vle-2.1.0
Install dependencies
Ubuntu 16.04 and Debian 8 Jessie
For Ubuntu 16.04 or Debian GNU/Linux 8:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install curl libxml2-dev libboost-dev cmake pkg-config g++ \
qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools qtbase5-dev qtbase5-dev-tools \
qtchooser qt5-default libqt5svg5-dev
Debian 7 Wheezy
For the Debian old, VLE 2 can compile with clang++ and libc++:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install curl libxml2-dev libboost-dev cmake pkg-config clang++ libc++-dev linv++abi-dev \
qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools qtbase5-dev qtbase5-dev-tools \
qtchooser qt5-default
export CXX=clang++-libc++
export CC=clang
Ubuntu 14.04
For Ubuntu 14.04, we need a recent C++14 compiler. We propose the use of the [Ubuntu Toolchain test builds](https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu- toolchain-r/+archive/ubuntu/test). So, use the following instructions.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install curl libxml2-dev libboost-dev cmake pkg-config g++ \
qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools qtbase5-dev qtbase5-dev-tools \
qtchooser qt5-default g++-6 gcc-6 gcc-4.8 g++-4.8
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-6 60 --slave /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-6
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.8 60 --slave /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-4.8
sudo update-alternatives --config gcc
Build the code
Once you have met requirements, compile and install VLE using the following command:
cd vle # or cd vle-2.1.0 is you use wget
mkdir build && cd build
export QT_SELECT=qt5
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo ..
make -j4
make install
make test
If you install VLE outside /usr like above, you must define these
variables into your .bashrc or equivalent. For example, with
prefix=/usr/local:
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export MANPATH=/usr/local/man
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
