Installation

xsimd is a header-only library, so installing it is just a matter of copying the include/xsimd directory.

However we provide standardized means to install it, with package managers or with cmake. Besides the xsimd headers, all these methods place the cmake project configuration file in the right location so that third-party projects can use cmake’s find_package to locate xsimd headers.

Using the conda-forge package

A package for xsimd is available for the mamba (or conda) package manager.

mamba install -c conda-forge xsimd

Using the Spack package

A package for xsimd is available on the Spack package manager.

spack install xsimd
spack load xsimd

From source with cmake

You can install xsimd from source with cmake. On Unix platforms, from the source directory:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/prefix ..
make install

On Windows platforms, from the source directory:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake -G "NMake Makefiles" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/prefix ..
nmake
nmake install
