Installing Metis from Source
Compiling and running the interpreted version of Metis requires an
installation of Moscow ML.
Compiling and running the native code version of Metis requires an
installation of MLton.
Both versions use GNU Make and Perl.
- Download the metis.tar.gz file.
- Extract it with the command tar xvzf metis.tar.gz
- There will be a new directory called metis. Change to
this directory.
- Type make clean to clean out any object files, then
- either make mosml to build the Moscow ML version,
- or make mlton to build the MLton version.
- Test your installation by executing
- either bin/mosml/metis --help to run
the Moscow ML version,
- or bin/mlton/metis --help to run the
MLton version.
- If a usage message appears, the installation was successful.
