SeeGraph Compilation

by Joshua New



           


I) What is SeeGraph?
SeeGraph is a visual analytics package for weighted, undirected graphs. Find out more about this package at SeeGraph's homepage.

II) System Requirements
Graphics card - this package requires a graphics card which supports OpenGL version 2.0 (released 9/9/04).
    To determine if your system has a card which supports OpenGL 2.0, download GLview.
    We also recommend you use the latest driver for your video card which can usually be found at either NVIDIA or ATI.

III) Download Source
Download SeeGraph v1.01 source [zip] [tar.gz]
    Unzip/untar to target directory and go to that location.
    This zip package contains a VC6 workspace (*.dsw) and VC7 solution (*.sln) for Windows, and a makefile for Linux.

IV) Setup libraries/dependencies (in ./SeeGraph1.01/OpenGL)

OpenGL:
    You will need OpenGL, GLU, GLUT, and GLEW. The header, libs, and DLLs for Windows (and GLEW for Linux) should be included in your download. For more info on other operating systems, read up and download OpenGL.
    For VC6 user in Windows XP:
        *.h --> C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Include\GL\
        *.lib --> C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Lib\
        *.dll --> C:\WINDOWS\system32\ (or ./SeeGraph folder to maintain multiple OpenGL versions on one machine)
    Linux:
        *.h --> /usr/include/GL/
        *.a --> /usr/lib/

Visual CookBook (VCB): (in ./SeeGraph1.01/OpenGL)
    Copy folder ./OpenGL/VCBrelease to C:\ (Windows) or /home/username/VCBrelease (Linux).
    Note: Linux users with have to edit the makefile for this location. Windows users will have to edit the Project=>Settings include and lib/link preprocessor paths if copied to a location other than C:\. For more info on VCB for other operating systems, read about and download VCB.

V) Run
For Windows:
    Run "Command Prompt"
    cp Debug/SeeGraph.exe ./
    SeeGraph.exe data/demo1.wel
For Linux:
    ./SeeGraph ./data/demo1.wel
