Re: [igraph] Getting the latest development version of igraph

[Richard Geddes]

Gabor,

Thanks for the info.  I'll give it a try and let you know if I encounter problems.

I have 2 systems:
- my development system (32-bit Ubuntu 7.10 desktop with GUI and Eclipse)
- my production system - 64-bit Ubuntu 7.10 server - no GUI, basically stripped down linux to run programs on large graphs - up to 5 million nodes and up to 25 million edges.  The values produced in analysis can overflow the 32-bit machine.

So far, non-igraph programs running in both my systems have no problems... should I expect any difficulties in moving to the 64-bit machine for igraph libraries?

Thank you
Richard

Richard,

what is your operating system? 
If you happen to have linux then there should be a tla package 
for your distribution, eg. in Debian or Ubuntu Linux all
you need is typing 

apt-get install tla 

The arch homepage is here:
http://regexps.srparish.net/www/index.html#Gnu-arch
This seems to be good starting point if you have MS Windows or OSX:
http://www.gnuarch.org/gnuarchwiki/

As for using tla itself, it is quite easy, first your register the 
igraph archive:

tla register-archive http://cneurocvs.rmki.kfki.hu/arch/address@hidden
tla my-default-archive address@hidden

Then you get the sources into a directory called igraph-dev-0.5:

tla get igraph--main--0.5 igraph-dev-0.5

To update your archive all you need is to go into the igraph-dev-0.5 
directory and type 

tla update

Compiling the development version needs autoconf and automake, libtool, 
maybe more tools as well. It can be done with something like:

./bootstrap.sh
./configure
make
make install

If you want to create an R package, you also need Python installed,
and obviously, GNU R too. Do this:

./bootstrap.sh
./configure
./bootstrap.sh
cd interfaces/R
make

Tell me if you need more help,
Gabor

Hello,

I'd like to get the latest version of the igraph libraries, however, I'm
only familiar with the subversion version control system.  Could someone
point me in the right direction so I can install the development version
on my system.  I'm not familiar with "the tla arch revision control system".

Thank you
Richard
