How to make your own binary.

This section is for users who want to build Glucas using other than the default settings in the configure script or try tuning Glucas for their specific hardware.

You will need to know about your compiler settings, especially the optimization flags. You will also need to know about Glucas and YEAFFT configuration flags and ini files.

Makefile.Glucas is a skeleton of the Makefile. You have to edit the proper flags and macro definitions in that file. This file is commented and also has examples for several architectures. Here is an excerpt of the top of this file. You have to edit it and fill CC, O, LINK, C, OUT, CFLAGS, CFLAGS1, CFLAGS0, and DEFINE_GLUCAS. (See Glucas compiler options.)

# HOW TO CALL THE COMPILER. SELECT HERE YOUR COMPILER
CC=
# YOU CAN CHANGE HERE THE SUFFIXES FOR OBJECT
O=
# HOW TO LINK
LINK=
#ONLY COMPILE FLAG
C=
#OUTPUT FLAG
OUT=

# EXAMPLE for GNU/GCC compiler
#CC=gcc
#O=o
#LINK=$(CC)
#C=-c
#OUT=-o

#
# SET THE OPTIMAL COMPILER FLAGS AND GLUCAS DEFINE HERE
#
CFLAGS=

#
# SOME COMPILERS DON'T WORK WELL WITH CFLAGS, SO WE NEED A LESSER
# OPTIMIZATION FLAGS
#
CFLAGS1=

#
# tricky.c file needs even lesser optimization flag
#
CFLAGS0=

#
# SET THE OPTIMAL MACROS FOR GLUCAS
#
DEFINE_GLUCAS=

Only DEFINE_GLUCAS is specific for Glucas, the other flags depend on the users compiler/architecture.
