Some aspects of ns-3 depend on Unix or specifically Linux support, such as the emulation or TapBridge features, and those components are not enabled on the Windows or MacOS versions cited above.
There are a few options that are not enabled by default and are not available on all platforms. At the end of the configuration process explained below , the status of these options are shown as detected by a waf script:. Generally if the platform is missing some requirement for an option it is marked as "not enabled. The table below is meant to help sort out the different features and on which platforms they are supported.
This table reflects the status as of ns It can be the case that trying to use an old version of ns-3 on a newer system can lead to warnings or errors because the compilers have become more strict over time. The below wiki page has some suggestions to work around this. Conversely, it can be the case that a user has an old version of Linux but newer compilers and libraries are needed to run the latest versions of ns This blog has some recommendations on how to use chroot jails to work around this:.
As mentioned above, different options require additional support. Note that other distributions e. Note: CentOS version 6 series currently 6. The below instructions are based on a CentOS 6. Some additional packages are needed goocanvas and pygoocanvas. Then, try this:. Note, if you perform this install successfully on a CentOS server that does not have a desktop installed i. Jump to installation. The following list of packages should be accurate through the Ubuntu Ubuntu Note: As of ns If working with an earlier release, one may in general substitute 'python' for 'python3' in the below e.
To check your version, type "sphinx-build". When a source package is installed by a build of R which supports multiple sub-architectures, the normal installation process installs the packages for all sub-architectures.
The exceptions are. In those cases only the current architecture is installed. Further sub-architectures can be installed by. Some R packages contain compiled code which links to external software libraries. Unless the external library is statically linked which is done as much as possible for binary packages on Windows and macOS , the libraries have to be found when the package is loaded and not just when it is installed.
How this should be done depends on the OS and in some cases the version. For Unix-alikes except macOS the primary mechanism is the ld. Standard library locations will be covered by the cache, and well-designed software will add its locations as for example openmpi does on Fedora. On macOS the primary mechanism is to embed the absolute path to dependent dynamic libraries into an object when it is compiled.
Running R CMD otool -L on the package shared object will show where if anywhere its dependencies are resolved. The danger with any of the methods which involve setting environment variables is of inadvertently masking a system library.
The command update. It downloads the list of available packages and their current versions, compares it with those installed and offers to fetch and install any that have later versions on the repositories. An alternative interface to keeping packages up-to-date is provided by the command packageStatus , which returns an object with information on all installed packages and packages available at multiple repositories.
The print and summary methods give an overview of installed and available packages, the upgrade method offers to fetch and install the latest versions of outdated packages. One sometimes-useful additional piece of information that packageStatus returns is the status of a package, as "ok" , "upgrade" or "unavailable" in the currently selected repositories.
Utilities such as install. Under that base URL there should be directory trees for one or more of the following types of package distributions:. If you have a mis-configured server that does not report correctly non-existent files you may need these files. To add your repository to the list offered by setRepositories , see the help file for that function.
Incomplete repositories are better specified via a contriburl argument than via being set as a repository. It can be convenient to run R CMD check on an installed package, particularly on a platform which uses sub-architectures. The outline of how to do this is, with the source package in directory pkg or a tarball filename :. Where sub-architectures are in use the R CMD check line can be repeated with additional architectures by. If multiple sub-architectures fail only because they need different settings, e.
So on Windows to install, check and package for distribution a source package from a tarball which has been tested on another platform one might use. Internationalization refers to the process of enabling support for many human languages, and localization to adapting to a specific country and language. Current builds of R support all the character sets that the underlying OS can handle.
These are interpreted according to the current locale , a sufficiently complicated topic to merit a separate section. Note though that R has no built-in support for right-to-left languages and bidirectional output, relying on the OS services. For example, how character vectors in UTF-8 containing both English digits and Hebrew characters are printed is OS-dependent and perhaps locale-dependent. The other aspect of the internationalization is support for the translation of messages.
This is enabled in almost all builds of R. A locale is a description of the local environment of the user, including the preferred language, the encoding of characters, the currency used and its conventions, and so on. Aspects of the locale are accessed by the R functions Sys. The system of naming locales is OS-specific. There is quite wide agreement on schemes, but not on the details of their implementation. A locale needs to specify. R is principally concerned with the first for translations and third.
Note that the charset may be deducible from the language, as some OSes offer only one charset per language. See man locale and locale -a for more details.
Windows also uses locales, but specified in a rather less concise way. For example, chinese is Traditional Chinese and not Simplified Chinese as used in most of the Chinese-speaking world.
Internally macOS uses a form similar to Linux: the main difference from other Unix-alikes is that where a character set is not specified it is assumed to be UTF The preferred language for messages is by default taken from the locale.
The last three are normally used to set the locale and so should not be needed, but the first is only used to select the language for messages. It is usually possible to change the language once R is running via not Windows Sys. But this is OS-specific, and has been known to stop working on an OS upgrade.
Note that translated messages may be cached, so attempting to change the language of an error that has already been output in another language may not work. Messages are divided into domains , and translations may be available for some or all messages in a domain. R makes use of the following domains. Dividing up the messages in this way allows R to be extensible: as packages are loaded, their message translation catalogues can be loaded too.
R-level and C-level domains are subtly different, for example in the way strings are canonicalized before being passed for translation.
However, if a specific translation catalogue exists but does not contain a translation, the less specific catalogues are consulted. Translations in the right language but the wrong charset are made use of by on-the-fly re-encoding. Almost all current CPU s have both and bit sets of instructions. For most a bit version is the default, but for some e. The principal difference is in the size of the pointers. R allocates memory for large objects as needed, and removes any unused ones at garbage collection.
When the sizes of objects become an appreciable fraction of the address limit, fragmentation of the address space becomes an issue and there may be no hole available that is the size requested. This can cause more frequent garbage collection or the inability to allocate large objects. So, for speed you may want to use a bit build especially on a laptop , but to handle large datasets and perhaps large files a bit build.
You can often build both and install them in the same place: See Sub-architectures. This is done for the Windows binary distributions. Even on bit builds of R there are limits on the size of R objects see help "Memory-limits" , some of which stem from the use of bit integers especially in Fortran code. The routines supporting the distribution and special 45 functions in R and a few others are declared in C header file Rmath. These can be compiled into a standalone library for linking to other applications.
Note that they are not a separate library when R is built, and the standalone version differs in several ways. A little care is needed to use the random-number routines. You will need to supply the uniform random number generator.
This takes values from the enumeration type. If R has not already been made in the directory tree, configure must be run as described in the main build instructions. The example file test. Note that you will probably not be able to run it unless you add the directory containing libRmath. You need to set up 46 almost all the tools to make R and then run in a Unix-like shell.
This creates a static library libRmath. If you want an import library libRmath. This will use the first found of libRmath. You should be able to force static or dynamic linking via. It is possible to link to Rmath. Auto-import will probably work with MinGW-w64, but it is better to be sure. This appendix gives details of programs you will need to build R on Unix-like platforms, or which will be used by R if found by configure.
Next: Useful libraries and programs , Previous: Essential and useful other programs under a Unix-alike , Up: Essential and useful other programs under a Unix-alike [ Contents ][ Index ]. You need a means of compiling C and Fortran 90 see Using Fortran. For versions of gcc prior to 5. Note that options essential to run the compiler even for linking, such as those to set the architecture, should be specified as part of CC rather than in CFLAGS.
The command-line editing and command completion depends on the GNU readline library including its headers : version 6. A suitably comprehensive iconv function is essential. The OS needs to have enough support 52 for wide-character types: this is checked at configuration. Some C99 functions 53 are required and checked for at configuration. Installations of zlib version 1.
Either PCRE1 version 8. Only the 8-bit library and headers are needed if these are packaged separately. JIT support optional is desirable for the best performance. The --enable-jit flag is supported for most common CPUs. See also the comments for Solaris. Library libcurl version 7.
Information on libcurl is found from the curl-config script: if that is missing or needs to be overridden 58 there are macros to do so described in file config. A tar program is needed to unpack the sources and packages including the recommended packages.
A version 59 that can automagically detect compressed archives is preferred for use with untar : the configure script looks for gtar and gnutar before tar — use environment variable TAR to override this. You will not be able to build most of the manuals unless you have texi2any version 5.
To make PDF versions of the manuals you will also need file texinfo. If you want to build from the R Subversion repository then texi2any is highly recommended as it is used to create files which are in the tarball but not stored in the Subversion repository. Building PDF package manuals including the R reference manual and vignettes is sensitive to the version of the LaTeX package hyperref and we recommend that the TeX distribution used is kept up-to-date. Note that package hyperref currently requires packages kvoptions , ltxcmds and refcount.
The essential programs should be in your PATH at the time configure is run: this will capture the full paths. The liblzma library is in the public domain and X11, libbzip2 , libcurl and zlib have MIT-style licences. The ability to use translated messages makes use of gettext and most likely needs GNU gettext : you do need this to work with new translations, but otherwise the version of the gettext runtime contained in the R sources will be used if no suitable external gettext is found.
Cairo version 1. These tests will fail if pkg-config is not installed 61 , and might fail if cairo was built statically unless configure option --with-static-cairo is used. Pango is optional but highly desirable as it is likely to give much better text rendering, including kerning. For the best font experience with these devices you need suitable fonts installed: Linux users will want the urw-fonts package.
On platforms which have it available, the msttcorefonts package 62 provides TrueType versions of Monotype fonts such as Arial and Times New Roman. See the R help on X11 on selecting such fonts.
The bitmapped graphics devices jpeg , png and tiff need the appropriate headers and libraries installed: jpeg version 6b or later, or libjpeg-turbo or libpng version 1. They also need support for either X11 or cairo see above. Should support for these devices not be required or broken system libraries need to be avoided there are configure options --without-libpng , --without-jpeglib and --without-libtiff.
The TIFF library has many optional features such as jpeg , libz , zstd , lzma , webp jbig and jpeg12 , none of which is required for the tiff devices but may need to be present to link the library usually only an issue for static linking. Option --with-system-tre is also available: it needs a recent version of TRE. An implementation of XDR is required, and the R sources contain one which is likely to suffice although a system version may have higher performance.
Use of the X11 clipboard selection requires the Xmu headers and libraries. These are normally part of an X11 installation e. Some systems notably macOS and at least some FreeBSD systems have inadequate support for collation in multibyte locales.
It will be used by default where available: should a very old or broken version of ICU be found this can be suppressed by --without-ICU. At the time of writing a full installation on Fedora Linux used the following packages and their development versions, and this may provide a useful checklist for other systems:.
Note that the tk. The build process looks for Java support on the host system, and if it finds it sets some settings which are useful for Java-using packages such as rJava and JavaGD : these require a full JDK. Asked 8 years, 3 months ago.

Although I'm sure this answer is helpful for people in the know, it reads as gibberish to noobish me. With anaconda installed on windows one can simply execute: conda install -c conda-forge poppler.

It has many useful tools, it is intuitive, performant and clear. This app was the key to me come back to Ubuntu. I couldn't stay on Ubuntu without this one, it is the equivalent of Preview on Mac OS, even more powerful than Preview.
Thanks indeed. On Linux, TeXLive can be installed in the user's home directory rather than system, which is analogous to portable. When a program is installed as portable, it probably has different access permissions than does a system installation. This helps avoid some not all potential security problems.
Particularly in the case of MikTeX,a portable installation is likely to avoid various "access denied" problems that occasionally arise during updates. If you are a single user on your own computer, I cannot think of any downsides to a portable installation. However, it won't work if you have a multi-user or networked system.
MikTeX keeps track of package authenticity, and doesn't like you manually installing a package within the texmf distribution folder. You must use texmf-local or equivalent. TeXLive allows you to cheat more easily, but I cannot think of any reason to do that. Sign up to join this community. The best answers are voted up and rise to the top.

I don't know why? It's a somewhat "basic" question, but I might have asked it, too. And it attracted a lot of answers, so it was interesting. Tex Live doesn't allow you to install 64bit binaries on Windows, Miktex does, and these binaries work better when you deal with large files.

My impression is that Christian pays attention to security. IgorKotelnikov You said the same thing three times. There's no evidence that any of them are right. Show 5 more comments. I guess here you want differences: Only MiKTeX can do 'on the fly' package installation, as TeX Live is more focussed on having a system that works well on multi-user systems.
For most users, it's largely down to 'personal opinion' or 'what you try first'! Jasper: Last time I did it, you had to do the basic install first then do a second 'cycle' to install everything.
The update wizard also did not pick up new packages as part of an 'update': I had to again select those separately.
