Getting the Dependencies
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
``ccmake`` provides a nicer graphical interface compared to ``cmake``.
Press ``t`` in ``ccmake`` if you need to see absolutely all
configuration options (e.g., if your Python installation is not standard).
-boost (at least v1.48, v1.59 recommended)
- - On Debian / Ubuntu: ``apt install libboost-dev libboost-context-dev``
+boost mandatory components (at least v1.48, v1.59 recommended)
+ - On Debian / Ubuntu: ``apt install libboost-dev``
- On CentOS / Fedora: ``dnf install boost-devel``
- On macOS with homebrew: ``brew install boost``
+boost recommended components (optional).
+ - boost-context may be used instead of our own fast context switching code which only works on amd64.
+ - boost-stacktrace is used to get nice stacktraces on errors in SimGrid.
+ - On Debian / Ubuntu: ``apt install libboost-context-dev libboost-stacktrace-dev``
+python bindings (optional):
+ - On Debian / Ubuntu: ``apt install pybind11-dev python3-dev``
+Model-checking mandatory dependencies
+ - On Debian / Ubuntu: ``apt install libevent-dev``
+Model-checking optional dependencies
+ - On Debian / Ubuntu: ``apt install libunwind-dev libdw-dev libelf-dev``
Eigen3 (optional)
- On Debian / Ubuntu: ``apt install libeigen3-dev``
- On CentOS / Fedora: ``dnf install eigen3-devel``
- On macOS with homebrew: ``brew install eigen``
- Use EIGEN3_HINT to specify where it's installed if cmake doesn't find it automatically.
+JSON (optional, for the DAG wfcommons loader)
+ - On Debian / Ubuntu: ``apt install nlohmann-json3-dev``
+ - Use nlohmann_json_HINT to specify where it's installed if cmake doesn't find it automatically.
For platform-specific details, please see below.

start with a fresh one when you install new dependencies.

- <install_cmake_outsrc>`.

- run time.
+ Activates the liveness verification mode. This will hinder simulation speed even when the model checker is not activated at run

enable_ns3 (on/OFF)

enable_smpi (ON/off)
Allows one to run MPI code on top of SimGrid.

SIMGRID_PYTHON_LIBDIR (auto-detected)
- Where to install the Python module library. By default, it is set to the cmake Python3_SITEARCH variable if installing to /usr,

The best solution to get SimGrid working on windows is to install the
-Ubuntu subsystem of Windows 10. All of SimGrid (but the model checker)

works in this setting. Native builds never really worked, and they are
disabled starting with SimGrid v3.33.

Once you have the Python development headers installed as well as a
-recent version of the `pybind11 <https://pybind11.readthedocs.io/en/stable/>`
+recent version of the `pybind11 <https://pybind11.readthedocs.io/en/stable/>`_
module (version at least 2.4), recompiling the Python bindings from
the source should be as easy as:
.. code-block:: console
$ pip install simgrid

-Linux Multi-Arch specific instructions
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-On a multiarch x86_64 Linux, it should be possible to compile a 32-bit
-version of SimGrid with something like:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- $ CFLAGS=-m32 \
- CXXFLAGS=-m32 \
- FFLAGS=-m32 \
- PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/ \
- cmake . \
- -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR=i386 \
- -DCMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER=/some/path/to/i686-linux-gnu-gfortran \
- -DGFORTRAN_EXE=/some/path/to/i686-linux-gnu-gfortran \
- -DSMPI_C_FLAGS=-m32 \
- -DSMPI_CXX_FLAGS=-m32 \
- -DSMPI_Fortran_FLAGS=-m32
-
-If needed, implement ``i686-linux-gnu-gfortran`` as a script:
-
-.. code-block:: shell
-
- #!/usr/bin/env sh
- exec gfortran -m32 "$@"
