INSTALLING

GG uses CMake to generate its build system.  CMake just creates build files
for you to use with your preferred build tool (GNU Make, MSVC Project files,
etc.).

You need to have CMake installed (get it at http://cmake.org), and then just
execute "cmake" from the top of the GG source tree.  If you want to build
multiple variants, you might want to move to another directory, and execute
"cmake path/to/GG" instead.  This will create all the build products where
ever you are, instead of in the GG source tree.  CMake should be able to guess
which build tool you'd like to use; if you want to specify something other
than what it guesses, see the -G option in the cmake docs.

To configure the GG build (debug vs. release, static vs. dynamic libs, etc.),
run "ccmake [path/to/GG]" on unices, or cmake-gui on Windows and Mac OSX.

Once you've configured GG, just build it and/or install it with your build
tool.

Note that you should know about a few variables that will help CMake
find Boost when it is installed somewhere odd, or on a platform like
Windows where there is no default install location.  Look in the CMake
documentation for your version of CMake, for BOOST_ROOT,
BOOST_INCLUDEDIR, and BOOST_LIBRARYDIR.

To summarize...

For unices:

cmake
ccmake (optional)
make
make install

For Windows:

Run cmake-gui
Build GG in MSVC's IDE using the generated project files.

For Mac OS X:

Run cmake-gui
Build GG in XCode's IDE using the generated project files.
