| 8 | If you are working under Unix/Linux-like system and you have `wget' |
|---|
| 9 | installed, you can downloaded the required source code for the ASL |
|---|
| 10 | by executing the included script `get.ASL' in this directory. |
|---|
| 11 | |
|---|
| 12 | Otherwise, follow those instructions: |
|---|
| 13 | |
|---|
| 14 | 1. Obtain the ASL source code, for example from |
|---|
| 15 | http://www.netlib.org/ampl/solvers/ . |
|---|
| 16 | Check http://www.netlib.org/ampl/solvers/README for instructions on |
|---|
| 17 | how to obtain the entire directory 'solvers' in a convenient manner. |
|---|
| 18 | |
|---|
| 19 | For example: |
|---|
| 20 | |
|---|
| 21 | In this directory enter: |
|---|
| 22 | |
|---|
| 23 | ftp www.netlib.org |
|---|
| 24 | |
|---|
| 25 | and log in as 'anonymous' and enter your email address as password |
|---|
| 26 | |
|---|
| 27 | In FTP, enter |
|---|
| 28 | |
|---|
| 29 | ftp> cd ampl |
|---|
| 30 | ftp> bin |
|---|
| 31 | ftp> get solvers.tar |
|---|
| 32 | ftp> quit |
|---|
| 33 | |
|---|
| 34 | --- |
|---|
| 35 | |
|---|
| 36 | If the netlib server is down, you can also obtain a tarball from |
|---|
| 37 | |
|---|
| 38 | http://cm.bell-labs.com/netlib/ampl/index.html |
|---|
| 39 | |
|---|
| 40 | (at the "tar" link for "solvers") |
|---|
| 41 | |
|---|
| 42 | 2. Unpack this package, so that the directory solvers is now located |
|---|
| 43 | in $SRCROOTDIR/OTHERS/ASL , i.e. you have a directory |
|---|
| 44 | $SRCROOTDIR/OTHERS/ASL/solvers containing the source code for the |
|---|
| 45 | ASL. |
|---|
| 46 | |
|---|
| 47 | For example: |
|---|
| 48 | |
|---|
| 49 | If you obtained the file 'solvers.tar' as described above and it is |
|---|
| 50 | in this directory, enter |
|---|
| 51 | |
|---|
| 52 | tar xf solvers.tar |
|---|
| 53 | |
|---|
| 54 | Since the files are compressed when obtained as described above, |
|---|
| 55 | you need to uncompress them, e.g. by typing |
|---|
| 56 | |
|---|
| 57 | gunzip -fr solvers |
|---|
