--- PREFACE  --------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------

BuDDy was originally developed by Jorn Lind-Nielsen as a part of his
PhD thesis.
After using BuDDy as a BDD library for long time (while getting some
support from Jorn through email), I have been suggested by Jorn to take
ownership of the project and move it to SourceForge.
I invite all users who are interested to participate in the development
to contact me.  (I always have desired tasks / features awaiting...)
I hope that BuDDy will prosper under my management.

--- REQUIREMENTS ----------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------

* A (not too old) C++ compiler. I use g++ 3.3.3
* A machine that supports 32 bit integers


---------------------------------------------------------------------
--- INSTALLING ------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------

The following commands should build and install the library.

  ./configure
  make
  make install

`./configure' accepts many arguments to tune your installation.
The following options are noteworthy:

  --includedir=/somewhere/include
    Specify where header files will be installed.

  --libdir=/somewhere/lib
    Specify where libraries will be installed.

  --disable-shared
    Do not build the shared library for BuDDy.

  --disable-static
    Do not build the static library for BuDDy.

  --enable-swap-count
    Count number of fundamental variable swaps (for debugging)

  --enable-cache-stats
    Gather statistical information about operator and unique node
    caching (for debugging)

Run `./configure --help' for a complete listing, and see
the INSTALL file for generic instructions.

Some machines are missing "CLOCKS_PER_SEC".  BuDDy will use
a default value of 60 on these.  You can overwrite this setting
by setting DEFAULT_CLOCK as follows:

  ./configure CPPFLAGS=-DDEFAULT_CLOCK=1000

Part of the BuDDy library needs 64 bit arithmetics.  With gnu C++,
Microsoft C++ and KAI C++, and any C99 compiler, this is part of the
language and used by BuDDy.  With other compilers BuDDy need to
implement the math it self -- which is a bit slower.  If you now of a
64 bit unsigned integer type on your platform then define that in the
BUDDYUINT64 variable. Example: 
   
  ./configure CPPFLAGS=-DBUDDYUINT64="long long"

Run `make check' to build the examples.
The examples also serve as a regression suite.

--- USING -----------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Assuming that the files "bdd.h" and "libbdd.a" are in directories
"/usr/local/include" and "/usr/local/lib" then the compile command
could be:

 g++ -I/usr/local/include myfile.cc -o myfile -L/usr/local/lib -lbdd

Your machine may be setup to use the above directories automatically,
so you might be able to do:

 g++ myfile.cc -o myfile -lbdd
