Whenever the NAG C Library has been supplied in compiled form, that form is considered to be the standard library file. The use of all supplied software must be in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Software Licence signed by NAG and each site. Any request to use NAG software on a computer other than the one licensed must be referred to NAG (see Section 6).
This implementation is a compiled, tested, ready-to-use version of the NAG C Library that is considered suitable for operation on the computer systems detailed below:
hardware: Intel Itanium operating system: Linux 2.4.3 (RedHat 7.1) or compatible C compiler: gcc version 3.0 or compatible
For information about implementations of the NAG C Library for use on other computer systems please contact NAG.
This implementation was produced at NAG Ltd., Oxford on the computing system detailed below:
hardware: Intel Itanium operating system: Linux 2.4.3-12smp (RedHat 7.1 (Seawolf)) C compiler: gcc version 3.0 compiler options: -O3 -fPIC
The entire NAG C Library, Mark 6, was compiled with full optimization (-O3), except for the following functions which had to be compiled at lesser optimization levels:
d02qftt.c (-O2) e04kbpt.c (-O1) f02ecft.c (-O1) f02syct.c (-O1) f06qzzt.c (-O1) g07dact.c (-O0) g08cbf_ft.c (-O1) g02bbzt.c (-O1)
For further details, refer to other documentation supplied or contact NAG (see Section 6).

To install all library material use the Unix tar utility, e.g.
tar xvf /cdrom/cl06.tar(assuming the CD-ROM has been mounted as /cdrom).
The object library (libnagc.so.6) should be moved to a directory, such as /usr/lib, in the default search path of the linker, if possible, so that linkage is convenient. Also, a symbolic link to the library should be created, i.e.
ln -s libnagc.so.6 libnagc.so
The include files should be moved to a directory such as /usr/include so that they can be accessed during compilation, e.g.
mv include/*.h /usr/include
The script nagexample refers to the local directory containing the example programs. The file should be copied to (for example) /usr/local/bin, modified to reflect the local installation, and its protection set to world execute.
The man page, which directs users to the HTML form of the Users' Note, should be moved to a directory in the man search path, e.g.
cd doc mv nag_c_un.3 /usr/man/man3
For the NAG C Library you will be provided with an uncounted license key for use on a specific machine.
An uncounted license key consists of one FEATURE or INCREMENT line for each product licensed, for example:
FEATURE NAG_CL NAG 6.000 31-dec-2001 0 CBDA2041DC1BC45D2B68 \ "L64A," 80896b27
This enables an unlimited number of instances of version 6 of the application NAG_CL until the date specified on the system with hostid 80896b27 only. Note that the line is continued by escaping the newline character with '\'.
You will have to inform NAG of the hostid of the system. To obtain the hostid, locate the FLEXlm utility program 'lmutil' in cll6406da/license/bin/it64_lr2, and run it with argument 'lmhostid'.
Once you have obtained the license key, store the text of it in a file, say /usr/local/lib/nag/license.dat
The location of this file must be made known to the NAG application by setting the environment variable LM_LICENSE_FILE to the full pathname of the file before the application is invoked.
For example, in the C-shell, type:
setenv LM_LICENSE_FILE /usr/local/lib/nag/license.dator in the Bourne shell, type:
LM_LICENSE_FILE=/usr/local/lib/nag/license.dat export LM_LICENSE_FILE
No other actions are required to install an uncounted license.
tar xvf /cdrom/pdf.tar(assuming the CD-ROM has been mounted as /cdrom).
You may wish to move the PDF documentation files to the same location as that for other NAG products. You are encouraged to make them readily available to users, but in such a way that they are not generally accessible from outside your site.
The following material should also be made accessible to users:
compiled library:
libnagc.so.6include files:
include/*.hexample program material:
examples/source/??????e.c examples/data/??????e.d examples/results/??????e.r scripts/nagexamplelibrary documentation files:
doc/callspdf documentation files
Note that the example material has been adapted, if necessary, from that printed in the NAG C Library Manual, so that programs are suitable for execution with this implementation with no further changes. Making the example material directly available to users provides them with easily adaptable templates for their own problems.
On-line documentation is provided, in PDF form, with this implementation. Further information is contained in the Readme file on the distribution medium.
Copies of the printed form of the documentation are available for purchase; please refer to the NAG documentation order form (available on the NAG websites, see Section 6 (c)) for details of current prices.
The NAG Response Centres are available for general enquiries from all users and also for technical queries from sites with an annually licensed product or support service.
The Response Centres are open during office hours, but contact is possible by fax, email and phone (answering machine) at all times.
When contacting a Response Centre please quote your NAG site reference and NAG product code (in this case CLL6406DA).
The NAG websites are an information service providing items of interest to users and prospective users of NAG products and services. The information is reviewed and updated regularly and includes implementation availability, descriptions of products, downloadable software, product documentation and technical reports.
