                                           PLASMA CMAKE BUILD NOTES

   These notes are intended to help you build PLASMA using the CMake build system. The open source CMake
   build system can be downloaded and installed from [1]http://www.cmake.org/.

   Currently,  the  CMake  build system is used mainly to generate Windows binaries and packages. In the
   future CMake may also be used for the Unix and Linux builds.

PLASMA on a Windows Machine

   For  Windows,  PLASMA is distributed as a pre-built package for 32 and 64 bit architectures. The only
   extra requirement is an external BLAS library that needs to be available.

   For  your  convenience,  precompiled  versions of the reference BLAS, LAPACK and MATGEN libraries are
   included,  however  your  performance  using  these  libraries  will  be  very low, and the libraries
   themselves  may  be out-of-date. Please obtain and use optimized math libraries, e.g., Intel MKL, AMD
   ACML, Atlas BLAS, Goto BLAS. Precompiled versions of the LAPACKE and blas_cwrapper libraries are also
   included.

  Building and Running PLASMA applications on a Windows Machine

   The  examples  directory  contains a Makefile.nmake that gives several examples of how to compile and
   link example PLASMA programs using different compilers and BLAS in 32 or 64 bit precisions. Adjust to
   your environment, and compile and run the examples. On a Windows machine, using a command window, you
   should be able to do the following.

   cd examples
   nmake -f Makefile.nmake example_dpotrf.c
   example_dpotrf.exe

  Building PLASMA libraries on a Windows Machine

   You  should  normally  not  need  to  rebuild  PLASMA,  but  you may chose to do so. The tested build
   environment  consists of Intel C and Fortran compilers with the Intel MKL BLAS. You will need to have
   the  CMake  build  system  installed. Currently the CMake build requires that you do not build in the
   source  directory  so that pre-existing files are not clobbered. The examples below create a separate
   BUILD  directory  and  do  the  builds there. For your convenience, certain required libraries (BLAS,
   LAPACK,  MATGEN, LAPACKE, blas_cwrapper) are pre-built and included in the binary Windows package. If
   you have optimized versions of these libraries, please link to them instead.

  Building 64 bit on Windows with Intel Environment

   Assuming you are in top directory for your PLASMA distribution. Set up a command shell with the Intel
   environment (adjust paths for your machine).

call "c:/Program Files (x86)/Intel/Compiler/11.1/067/bin/ifortvars.bat" intel64
call "c:/Program Files (x86)/Intel/Compiler/11.1/067/bin/iclvars.bat" intel64
call "c:/Program Files/Intel/MKL/10.0.4.023/tools/environment/mklvarsem64t.bat"
mkdir BUILD
cd BUILD
cmake -DCMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER=ifort -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=icl -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=icl -DLAPACKE_LIBRARIES=../li
b/lapacke.lib -DCLAPACK_INCLUDES=include -G "NMake Makefiles" ..
nmake

  Building 32 bit on Windows with Intel Environment

   Assuming  you are in top directory for your PLASMA distribution. Setup a command shell with the Intel
   environment (adjust paths for your machine)

call "c:/Program Files (x86)/Intel/Compiler/11.1/067/bin/ifortvars.bat" ia32
call "c:/Program Files (x86)/Intel/Compiler/11.1/067/bin/iclvars.bat" ia32
call "c:/Program Files/Intel/MKL/10.0.4.023/tools/environment/mklvars32.bat"
mkdir BUILD
cd BUILD
cmake -DCMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER=ifort -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=icl -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=icl -DLAPACKE_LIBRARIES=../li
b/lapacke.lib -DCLAPACK_INCLUDES=include -G "NMake Makefiles" ..
nmake
