16 ## Build instructions

17

18 To build erebus you first need to install the following libraries:

19 - libvmath: http://code.google.com/p/libvmath or http://github.com/jtsiomb/libvmath

20 - libimago2: http://code.google.com/p/libimago or http://github.com/jtsiomb/libimago

21 - libdrawtext: http://nuclear.mutantstargoat.com/sw/libdrawtext or http://github.com/jtsiomb/libdrawtext

22 - GLUT: any implementation will do, try http://freeglut.sourceforge.net

24 ### UNIX

25 To build erebus on UNIX just type make in the root project directory. You need a

26 C++ compiler with C++11 support; recent versions of GCC and Clang should do the

27 trick.

28

29 ### Windows

30 On Windows you have the choice to build using either ms visual studio or mingw.

31 For mingw, just type make as described by the UNIX instructions above, and it

32 should hopefully work.

33

34 If you choose to build using visual studio, you'll need at least VS2013 for the

35 required level of C++11 support. Open the included erebus.sln solution file, and

36 hit build (ctrl+b). Make sure you've set up visual studio's header/library

37 search paths first to allow visual studio to find the dependencies outlined

38 above.
