ABOUT THE ILMBASE LIBRARIES
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Half is a class that encapsulates our 16-bit floating-point format.
|
|
|
|
IlmThread is a thread abstraction library for use with OpenEXR
|
|
and other software packages. It currently supports pthreads and
|
|
Windows threads.
|
|
|
|
Imath implements 2D and 3D vectors, 3x3 and 4x4 matrices, quaternions
|
|
and other useful 2D and 3D math functions.
|
|
|
|
Iex is an exception-handling library.

BUILDING ILMBASE
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
To build IlmBase on GNU/Linux or other UNIX-like systems, do this:
|
|
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
unless you obtained IlmBase directly from git, in which case you
|
|
should first read README.git
|
|
|
|
|
|
Please type :
|
|
|
|
./configure --help
|
|
|
|
for a list of options in relation to building IlmBase libraries. In
|
|
particular, peruse README.namespaces for information regarding the
|
|
use of namespaces in IlmBase and OpenEXR.
|
|
|
|
|
|
See README.OSX for details on building IlmBase in MacOS X.
|
|
|
|
Do `make check` to run the IlmBase confidence tests. They should all
|
|
pass; if you find a test that does not pass on your system, please let
|
|
us know.
|
|
|
|
Other UNIX variants haven't been tested, but should be easy to build.
|
|
Let us know if you're having problems porting IlmBase to a particular
|
|
platform.
|
|
|
|
All include files needed to use the IlmBase libraries are installed in the
|
|
OpenEXR subdirectory of the install prefix, e.g. /usr/local/include/OpenEXR.
|
|
|
|
|
|
USING ILMBASE IN YOUR APPLICATIONS
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
On systems with support for pkg-config, use `pkg-config --cflags
|
|
IlmBase` for the C++ flags required to compile against IlmBase
|
|
headers; and `pkg-config --libs IlmBase` for the linker flags required
|
|
to link against IlmBase libraries.
