UGENE

Building UGENE

Prerequisites

Make sure the Qt (>= 5.2.1 and < 5.6) development libraries are installed:

• Ubuntu 16.04: sudo apt-get install qt5-default qttools5-dev-tools qtscript5-dev libqt5svg5-dev libqt5webkit5-dev libprocps4-dev
• Ubuntu 14.04: sudo apt-get install qt5-default qttools5-dev-tools qtscript5-dev libqt5svg5-dev libqt5webkit5-dev libprocps3-dev
• Ubuntu 12.04:
  • Download and install Qt 5.5.1: www.qt.io/download-open-source/
  • Set the system variable: export PATH=$PATH:~/Qt5.5.1/5.5/gcc_64/bin
  • sudo apt-get install g++ libgl1-mesa-dev libproc-dev libglu1-mesa-dev
  • sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libproc.so /usr/lib/libprocps.so
• Fedora: sudo yum install qt5-qtscript-devel qt5-qtbase-devel qt5-qtsvg-devel qt5-linguist qt5-qtwebkit-devel gcc-c++ redhat-rpm-config procps-ng-devel mesa-libGLU-devel
• Arch Linux: sudo pacman -S qt
• Mac OS X: download from Qt official site (http://www.qt.io/download/)
• Windows: download from Qt official site (http://www.qt.io/download/)

For Windows users:

To build with devenv (Visual Studio)

1. qmake -r -tp vc ugene.pro
2. open ugene.sln from Visual Studio or run devenv.exe ugene.sln /Build from MSVC command line

To build with nmake.exe:

1. qmake -r ugene.pro
2. run nmake, nmake debug or nmake release to build UGENE

For *nix users:

0. installation paths may be set up in ugene_globals.pri
1. qmake -r (Fedora: qmake-qt5 -r)
2. make -j 4
3. sudo make install
4. ugene -ui

Note: usually, make builds a release version of UGENE. However, on certain platforms default target is debug. To enforce release build use make release or make all.

Some more information you can see in installer/_common_data/README file.

Build with CUDA

1. Download and install required software from http://www.nvidia.com/object/cuda_get.html for your OS

2. Make sure that some system variable are set:

   CUDA_LIB_PATH=/path_where_cuda_installed/lib
   CUDA_INC_PATH=/path_where_cuda_installed/include
   PATH=$PATH:/path_where_cuda_installed/bin
   

   for *nix: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$CUDA_LIB_PATH

3. cd ./src and open ugene_globals.pri, find and set variable UGENE_CUDA_DETECTED = 1

Build with OpenCL

1. Download and install video driver wich supports OpenCL
2. Download OpenCL headers from http://www.khronos.org/registry/cl/ or find them in video vendor SDK directory.
3. make sure that you have system variable is set correctly: OPENCL_INC_PATH=/path_where_open_cl_installed
4. cd ./src and open ugene_globals.pri, find and set variable UGENE_OPENCL_DETECTED = 1

Notes: UGENE_CELL flag in ugene_globals should be uncommented when building on Cell BE platform
