# f18
## Selection of the C/C++ compiler
F18 requires a C++17 compiler. As of today, the code was only tested with g++
7.2.0, g++ 7.3.0 and clang 6.0.
For a proper installation, we assume that the PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variables
are properly set to use gcc, g++ and the associated libraries.
cmake will require that the environement variables CC and CXX are properly set (else it will
search for use the 'cc' and 'c++' program which are likely /usr/bin/cc and /usr/bin/c++) that
can be done now or while calling cmake
export CC=gcc
export CXX=g++
## Installation of LLVM & CLANG 6.0
F18 depends of the LLVM & CLANG libraries even when clang is not used as C++ compiler.
If those libraries are not provided by your system then you may want to follow the
build instructions at https://clang.llvm.org/get_started.html
## Installation of F18
######## Choose the installation directory
F18_PREFIX=...
######## Get Flang sources in $ROOT/f18
cd $ROOT
git clone https://github.com/ThePortlandGroup/f18.git
######## And build it in a dedicated directory
######## Reminder: If LLVM & Clang where not installed in a standard
######## location then you may also have to specify it via the
######## CMAKE_MODULE_PATH or CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH variables.
mkdir $ROOT/f18-build
cd $ROOT/f18-build
CC=gcc CXX=g++ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$F18_PREFIX $ROOT/f18
make -j 4
make install
