• pm2v build 354 (hits: )
• Report in postscript (in french)

Building PM2V requires the following softwares:

1. An ANSI C compiler.
2. A POSIX compatible operating system.
3. MPI (a free implementation of MPI called MPICH can be dowloaded on http://www-unix.mcs.anl.gov/mpi/mpich )
4. Flex version 2.5.4 or higher (availlable on http://www.gnu.org)
5. Bison version 1.25 or higher (availlable on http://www.gnu.org)
6. makedepend.

Of course a computer with SMP architecture or a network is required for using the PM2V library.

Building the library may be difficult because you have to edit the Makefile. The possibility of creating a configure batch file is studied.

PM2V has been successfully built on the following platforms:

• IBM SP2
• Sun Solaris 2.7
• Linux

Using PM2V is pretty easy, the library has only three functions.

1. pm2v_open
2. pm2v_add_image
3. pm2v_close

Please refer to the report (in french) for further informations.
