User guide of CurveLab explains how to install CurveLab C++. This post is a quick-note for CurveLab C++ installation w/o mex. It requires 2 main steps.
1. FFTW installation
Download FFTW version 2.1.5 from download page. Extract the compressed file and configure/make/install it (type the following commands line by line).
tar -xvf fftw-2.1.5.tar.gz
cd fftw-2.1.5
./configure --with-pic
make
sudo make install
2. CurveLab compilation
Download CurveLab from the software page. Extract the compressed file. Next, edit the makefile.opt as the curvelab.pdf writes and then make the library.
tar -xvf CurveLab-2.1.3.tar.gz
cd CurveLab-2.1.3
# edit makefile.opt (set FFTW_DIR to be the path in which FFTW 2.1.5 is installed, /usr/loca/include in my case)
make lib
make test
