INSTRUCTIONS TO BUILD THE EXAMPLE ON UNIX
=========================================

To compile the symbreg example on Unix (once the Open BEAGLE framework is built),
'cd' to the main example directory, and type the following commands.

      ./configure
      make clean
      make

Then, the binary will be in directory 'symbreg'.

'configure' recognizes the following options to control how it
operates.

'--enable-optimization'
     Enable the 'optimization' mode by setting the optimization flags
     of the compiler. Use this flag to compile a version of the examples
     linked with an optimized version of the framework libraries.

'--with-beagle=DIR'
     Specify the installation path of Open BEAGLE.

'--with-beagle-include=DIR'
     Specify exact installation directory for Open BEAGLE headers.

'--with-beagle-GA-include=DIR'
     Specify exact installation directory for Open BEAGLE GA headers.

'--with-beagle-GP-include=DIR'
     Specify exact installation directory for Open BEAGLE GP headers.

'--with-beagle-libdir=DIR'
     Specify exact installation directory for Open BEAGLE libraries.

'--with-beagle-GA-libdir=DIR'
     Specify exact installation directory for Open BEAGLE GA libraries.

'--with-beagle-GP-libdir=DIR'
     Specify exact installation directory for Open BEAGLE GP libraries.

'--cache-file=FILE'
     Use and save the test results in file FILE instead of
     './config.cache'.  Set FILE to '/dev/null' to disable caching, for
     debugging 'configure'.

'--help'
     Print a summary of the options to 'configure', and exit.

'--quiet'
'--silent'
'-q'
     Do not print messages saying which checks are being made.  To
     suppress all normal output, redirect it to '/dev/null' (any error
     messages will still be shown).

'--version'
     Print the version of Autoconf used to generate the 'configure'
     script, and exit.

'configure' also accepts some other, not widely useful, options.


INSTRUCTIONS TO BUILD THE EXAMPLE ON MS VISUAL C++ .NET
=======================================================

Go to folder 'MSVCPP' and open the solution file 'symbreg.sln' with
MS Visual Studio .NET. Then you can compile the example. The binary will
be in folder 'symbreg'.
