          Introduction to fftw
        
        
          FFTW is a C subroutine library for computing the discrete Fourier
          transform (DFT) in one or more dimensions, of arbitrary input size,
          and of both real and complex data (as well as of even/odd data,
          i.e. the discrete cosine/sine transforms or DCT/DST).
        
        
          This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-8.3
          platform.

          Installation of fftw
        
        
          Install fftw by running the
          following commands:
        
        
./configure --prefix=/usr  --enable-shared --enable-threads &&
make
        
          To test the results, issue: make
          check.
        
        
          Now, as the root user:
        
        
make install
       
      
        
          Command Explanations
        
        
          --enable-shared
          --disable-static: Use shared libs instead of static
          libs.
        
        
          --enable-threads:
          This enables libfftw3_threads.so to
          be compiled. It is used by e.g. the gimp plugin from G'MIC.
        
        
          --enable-float: This enables floating
          point, and will cause the library to be called libfftw3f.so (needed by RawTherapee (and similarly for
          the threaded library if that is built (not needed by RawTherapee).
          These versions are not usable by packages in this book which use
          libfftw3 so if you need both you will
          need to build fftw twice.
