Gambit: Software Tools for Game Theory | ||
---|---|---|
<<< Previous | Introduction | Next >>> |
The development and testing of Gambit takes place primarily on the following platforms:
Microsoft Windows 95, 98 and NT, using the free Borland C++ 5.5 compiler. The binary distributions for Windows should work on other versions of Windows, but may not be tested. Reports are always welcome.
RedHat Linux 6.x and 7.x, using wxWindows, the GTK toolkit and gcc. The wxWindows library also supports Motif/Lesstif, and the code should compile on other flavors of Linux and Unix; again, however, these may not be tested. Again, reports are always welcome.
The latest stable and unstable releases of Gambit can always be found at the Gambit website at http://www.hss.caltech.edu/gambit. You can build Gambit from source, in which case you will need one of the compilers mentioned above, and the appropriate version of wxWindows. Build instructions are found in the file INSTALL in the main directory of the source distribution. Gambit is also distributed in binary form for Windows, in which case you don't need the compiler or wxWindows installed. There currently are not any prebuilt binaries for *nix.
![]() | If you build the wxWindows libraries on *nix, make sure to grab the correct version for the toolkit you're using. Gambit is currently tested using wxGTK. You should also be able to build using the wxMotif port, but we currently have no reports whether or not this works correctly. Make sure you don't get the base library wxBase; this does not contain the GUI classes needed to build the Gambit graphical interfaces. |
