For a Unix system, you can use CMake to install mmCEsim

git clone https://github.com/mmcesim/mmcesim.git --recurse-submodules
cd mmcesim
mkdir build
cmake . build
cd build
make
sudo make install

You need to have Boost Library (v1.70 or higher) to compile. If you want to build the GUI app as well, you need to install Qt6.

Some options can be configured when calling cmake.

• CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE: Build type (default as Release)
• CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX: Installation prefix (default as system path)
• MMCESIM_BUILD_ASTYLE: Build astyle code formatter (default as ON)
• MMCESIM_BUILD_LOG: Build mmCEsim log tool (default as ON)
• MMCESIM_BUILD_MAINTAIN: Build mmCEsim maintenance tool (default as OFF)
• MMCESIM_BUILD_GUI: Build mmCEsim GUI App with Qt (default as OFF)
• MMCESIM_APPLE_COPY_SH: Copy additional shell script for macOS (default as OFF)
• MMCESIM_TESTS: Run mmCEsim tests (default as ON)

For example, you may use

cmake . build -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=usr/mmcesim

to install mmCEsim to the directory usr/mmcesim.

You can download the latest built binary in GitHub Releases. All these releases are statically linked, so no dependency library is required.
