git clone https://github.com/thunder422/ibcp.gitThis will create the ibcp directory and populate ot with the source files for the master branch (which is currently Release 0.1.15). However, the entire repository is present (there is a hidden .git directory). The commits can be viewed using the git log command (there are many options, which is why installing the git documentation is strongly recommended). The repository can also be viewed in GUI form using the gitk command if installed.
At this point, the program can be built using the make command in the ibcp directory. There are a couple of compiler warnings, which were corrected in the 0.1.6 development branch and can be ignored. The parser and translator tests can be run with the ./regtest command. Currently on Mint 13 (64-bit) on Release 0.1.5 (master), parser tests 1 and 3 fail.
Parser test 1 fails due to a bug with parsing integers, which did not occur on 32-bit Windows. This problem was corrected in the 0.1.16 development branch. Parser test 3 also fails because of an integer parsing error and due to a change in output of exponentiation numbers (64-bit Linux outputs only 2 digit exponents, but Windows outputs 3, which may also be due to the particular compiler or library versions). The exponent issue has yet to be corrected.
Next up, how to build the latest development branch, which is also contained in the git repository and uses cmake to create a make file...
