Building on Linux - Xorgon/DEMOranges GitHub Wiki

The following are step-by-step instructions for building the project on Linux. This should work for both AMD and NVIDIA installations.

  1. Install CMake (installation instructions can be found here).

  2. Install the appropriate OpenCL SDK for your system. For NVIDIA instructions can be found here. The AMD SDK should be shipped with AMD GPU drivers (reference).

  3. Build the project.

    1. Download the source and unzip it. Alternatively, if git is installed, simply do git clone https://github.com/Xorgon/DEMOranges.
    2. Create a directory within the 'DEMOranges' directory called 'cmake-build' (or something similar).
    3. Navigate into the 'cmake-build' directory in command prompt and run cmake ../. This creates the CMake build files based on the CMakeLists.txt in the 'DEMOranges' directory.
    4. While in the 'cmake-build' directory run cmake --build ./ --target <target name>. <target name> can be any target from this list. I recommend building run_tests first to check whether your system is correctly set up.

  4. Run the program file for whichever target you built (./<target name>).
