Installation¶

Attention

Until we get conan or vcpkg up and running, installation is via cmake.

Upgrading from previous versions¶

Please see the note on version stability and backward compatibility here.

Third party dependencies¶

Install and link¶

**Eigen** provides a linear algebra library. It isn’t as consistent with MATLAB’s API as armadillo (an alternative), but the API is very understandable and is used extensively in the C++ community.

**glog** google’s asynchronous logging library, used for logging to file.

**googletest** for unit testing.

Submodule dependencies¶

We also use cpr and json, which are included as submodule dependencies.

THIS WILL CHANGE VERY SOON! But for now, you’ll need to clone the repository and its submodules, cpr and json, in order to build it.

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/thclark/cpplot

Compilation with cmake¶

A cross-platform compilation file is provided using cmake, but it’s not tested on windows.

PRs to fix or improve it for windows are most welcome.
