BppSuite

BppSuite is a suite of ready-to-use programs for phylogenetic and sequence analysis.

Standalone executables
Standalone executables are available for linux32, linux64, win32, win64 and Mac.

Getting the source files
This is done with git.

Compiling and installing
All desired libraries, bpp-core, bpp-seq and bpp-phyl should be installed beforehand, for example in directory $bpp-dir.

That's it ! The executables will be installed in $bpp_dir/bin directory.

Explanation : CMake can be given internal variables using the -D option. The install directory is specified by the CMake CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX variable. Because our install directories are non-standard (eg. not /usr/local/lib</tt>), the CMake CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH</tt> and CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH</tt> variables must also be provided.

Installation

 * to the source directory,
 * build the Makefile with cmake

The binaries will be installed in /usr/local/bin</tt>, a location which requires superuser access rights. An alternative option consists in installing in the user home, for example in a subdirectory called bin</tt>. The CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX</tt> variable specifies where the bin</tt> directory should be installed.

In addition, if the Bio++ libraries are in a non standard location (such as ~/.local</tt>), use the following option:


 * Build the library:
 * Then install it:
 * You can also generate the pdf documentation by typing

Examples
Many examples are available in the subdirectory of Examples</tt>.
