Installing ATLAS on Windows¶
ATLAS is a moving target. With each version, configuration changes. It could once use the clapack_cmake sources, but as of 3.10.X, it appears that one must have a fortran compiler and one must build with the full lapack.
Cygwin should be installed as described here, and a fortran compiler can be obtained from MinGW-w64 as described here.
On Windows 7, you must turn off user notification in UserAccountControlSettings and reboot to build ATLAS. If not, you may see
cd bin/ ; ./xatlas_install -1 0 -a 1
/bin/sh: ./xatlas_install: Permission denied
make[1]: *** [build] Error 126
ATLAS appears to have problems with parentheses in paths. To get around this
- On Win64 do
mkdir /ProgramFilesX86
mount "C:/Program Files (x86)" /ProgramFilesX86
and additionally source bilder/setatlaspath.sh
. Check your path afterwards. Our current observation is that this removes only some irrelevant directories from the path, but your mileage may vary. At this point, a simple configuration command like
<path to your>/configure \
--prefix=/winsame/contrib-vs9/atlas-3.11.17-ser \
-b 64 \
--with-netlib-lapack-tarfile=<path to your>/lapack-3.4.2.tgz
(where 64 might be replaced by 32) should succeed.
