Dear Roberto, Thank you for your helpful answers! We are planning to use the library in a model checker for hybrid systems. I will probably have more questions later.
Best regards Elena

I have downloaded the latest release version of the library (0.5). I do not have problems with compiling the library. But when i try to compile the following program: #include"ppl.hh" main(void){}
with the command gcc file.c -lgmp -lgmpxx -lppl
i am getting lots of syntax errors. Compilation of test programs with make test goes well, but there are too many compilation options. Could you please help me with the minimal example to start using the library?
Best regards Elena

Dear PPL Developers, I am a beginner with PPL library and I am having problems with compilation. I am getting error messages like "redeclaration of 'typename', typename previously declared..." Do you have some demo files on usage of ppl? The library file is in ppl.hh?
Regards, Elena

I am a beginner with PPL library and I am having problems with compilation.
Dear Elena,
are you having problems compiling the library itself or compiling programs using the library? Which version of the library did you download?
I am getting error messages like "redeclaration of 'typename', typename previously declared..."
This is strange. Can you provide more details? Which version of which compiler are you using?
Do you have some demo files on usage of ppl?
All the files in the tests subdirectory are, in a sense, demo files. Some are more interesting than others, of course, but all the features of the library are tested in at least one of those.
The library file is in ppl.hh?
Well, the ppl.hh file is the only header file of the library so that including it is all you have to do in order to get your program compiled. If you give us more details about what is going wrong we will be more than happy to help. Response time may be higher than usual these days as most of us are attending the VMCAI and POPL conferences in Venice. All the best,
Roberto

Dear Elena,
it is now quite clear why you are getting lots of compilation errors. If you name a file "file.c" and use the command "gcc" to compile it, then the compiler interprets the file as a C program. The include file "ppl.hh" is the include file for the C++ interface of the library.
There are thus two possibilities:
- You want to use the C++ interface: then include, as you are doing,
"ppl.hh" but name your source "file.cc" and/or use the "g++" command instead of "gcc".
- You want to use the C interface: then include "ppl_c.h" instead of
"ppl.hh" and you are done.
Compilation of test programs with make test goes well, but there are too many compilation options. Could you please help me with the minimal example to start using the library?
Your program is the minimal program using the library, even though it does nothing. Just compile it with g++ using the same options you are giving to gcc and it should be OK. More interesting examples are given in the documentation and, as I said, the tests subdirectory is full of examples you can adapt. I am now writing from an uncomfortable environment, but I can send you something if you still have problems once I am back from the conference. All the best,
Roberto

I have managed to quickly hack tests/intersection1.cc to provide you with a non-trivial example: call the file below the signature "inters.cc" and compile it with
g++ -W -Wall -o inters inters.cc -lppl -lgmpcc -lgmp
All the best,
Roberto
