| OpenFst - Release 1.2 |
| |
| OpenFst is a library for constructing, combining, optimizing, and |
| searching weighted finite-state transducers (FSTs). |
| |
| REQUIREMENTS: |
| This version is known to work under Linux, MacOS, and Solaris using |
| g++ (>= 4.1). Expected to work wherever adequate POSIX (dlopen, ssize_t, |
| basename), c99 (snprintf, strtoll, <stdint.h>), and tr1 (<tr1/ordered_set>, |
| <tr1/ordered_map>) support are available. |
| |
| INSTALLATION: |
| Follow the generic GNU build system instructions in ./INSTALL. We |
| recommend configuring with =--enable-static=no= for faster |
| compiles. |
| |
| Optional features: |
| --enable-bin Build fst::script and command-line binaries (def: yes) |
| --enable-compact-fsts Enable all CompactFst classes (def: no) |
| --enable-const-fsts Enable all ConstFst classes (def: no) |
| --enable-far Enable FAR (FST Archive) extension (def: no) |
| --enable-lookahead-fsts Enable LookAheadFst classes (def: no) |
| --enable-pdt Experimental push-down transducer extensions (def: no) |
| --with-icu Use ICU to provide unicode support (def: no) |
| |
| Configuring with --enable-bin=no gives very fast compiles, but |
| excludes the command line utilities. |
| |
| Compiling with '-Wall -Wno-sign-compare' under g++ should give no |
| warnings from this library. |
| |
| USAGE: |
| Assuming you've installed under the default /usr/local, the FST |
| binaries are found on /usr/local/bin. To use in your own program, |
| include <fst/fstlib.h> and compile with '-I /usr/local/include'. |
| Link against /usr/local/lib/libfst.so and -ldl. Set your |
| LD_LIBRARY_PATH (or equivalent) to contain /usr/local/lib. The |
| linking is, by default, dynamic so that the Fst and Arc type DSO |
| extensions can be used correctly if desired. Any extensions will |
| be found under /usr/local/include/fst/extensions and /usr/local/lib/fst. |
