Configuration

Check that XC_MAX_ORDER is defined to the highest order derivatives you need (and not higher) in src/config.h. Warning: Using a too large value for XC_MAX_ORDER makes compilation slow and the generated code huge.

Building a debug/development version

Edit the Makefile that matches your compiler (Makefile.gcc or Makefile.intel or ...) to set CXX (C++ compiler) and flags and run

$ make -f Makefile.gcc

(or using the corresponding Makefile) This will create the library file lib/libxcfun.so

Building an optimized version

Edit the Makefile that matches your compiler (Makefile.gcc or Makefile.intel or ...) and add -DNDEBUG to the compiler flags. Add optimization compiler options. Make sure your compiler performs inlining (-O3 with gcc).
