4. Installation

4.1. Normal Installation

Assuming you have downloaded the dco/c++ installer from our website, extract the installation materials using the following command:

  tar xvzf dclux33ngl.tgz

This will extract the files install.sh, dclux33ngl.tar.gz and nag_tsandcs.txt.

You can then install the materials from the download directory by executing the shell script install.sh in a command window as:

  ./install.sh

By default, the dco/c++ materials are installed in

  ${HOME}/NAG/dclux33ngl
or the equivalent for your locale.

4.2. Silent Installation

It is also possible to run install.sh in unattended or silent modes. The installer takes command line switches for this purpose:

4.3. Licence Management

The use of this product is controlled by the Kusari licence management system. This release of dco/c++ uses version 2.2-88 of Kusari.

In order to enable the software, NAG will issue you with a licence key. The licence key is contained in a text file consisting of details of the software that will be enabled. For evaluation purposes a trial licence may be used. For more details on how to install the licence, please see respective subdirectory after installation.

5. Example Programs

Access to the dco/c++ materials can be checked by running a few example programs following the advice given below. (Detailed documentation on dco/c++ and examples is located in the User Guide which can be found in the dclux33ngl/doc directory).

5.1. Running from a command line

The output of the make command shows the compilation and link options used to produce each executable program. In addition, results of running the program are compared with reference results. Note that there may be small differences between observed and reference results, depending on the environment.

More sophisticated examples (case studies) are located in folders

To run all these examples change directory to the case_studies folder and type make. This will compile all examples located in the folder. Again, to run an example individually change to a subdirectory with the example of your choice and type make.
