We assume that you have successfully downloaded and unpacked the package, possibly including 3rd-party packages in sphinx/sxaccelerate/3rd-party/packages/ .

Please make sure that CPU throttling is deactivated when compiling (specifically: ATLAS!).

You may want to run the [[testbed]] after compilation.

Depending on the scope of your work with S/PHI/nX please choose the best fitting building approach:
58
| | Users | Testers | Developers |
59
| build S/PHI/nX release |once | once | frequently |
60
| build S/PHI/nX debug | | once | frequently|
61
| build SxAccelerate | | | once - frequently |
62
| build numlibs | | | once - rarely |
63
64
   * On machines with N CPUs: you may use parallel make via make -j 2N 
65
66
h2. configure options (selection)
67
68
| --disable-atlas  --disable-lapack  --enable-mkl  --with-mklpath=... | use MKL for BLAS/LAPACK (support for selected versions) | 	
69
| --disable-atlas  --disable-lapack  --enable-acml | use ACML for BLAS/LAPACK |
70
| --enable-mpi | compile MPI version (experimental) |
71
| --enable-openmp | compile using openmp, try to use openmp numerical libraries (experimental) |
72
| --with-numlibs=... | all external numerical libraries can be found in these paths (/path/1/:/path/2/:/path/3/) |
73
| --without-numlibs | external numerical libraries can be found in standard paths or via specified LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS |
74
| CXX=... | set C++ compiler |
75
| CXXFLAGS=... | set additional C++ compiler flags |
76
| LDFLAGS=... | set additional linker flags (see compiler/linker docu) |
77
|CPPFLAGS=... | set additional preparser flags (see compiler docu) |
78
|CPPFLAGS='-I...' | set additional search path for external includes  |
