Building NetlistViewer on Linux

March 24, 2025 ยท View on GitHub

Please install wxWidgets 3.0 and Boost >= 1.58 using your Linux package manager (apt, yum, dnf, etc). E.g. on Ubuntu:

   $ sudo apt install -y libwxgtk3.0-gtk3-dev libboost-graph1.74.0 libboost-serialization1.74.0 libboost-all-dev

The wx-config global utility will be used to discover location of wxWidgets header/lib files. Boost libs/headers are assumed to be in standard sytem-wide paths.

Then just run

    $ cd <your-path-to-NetlistViewer-sources>/build/linux 
	$ make
    $ sudo make install
    $ NetlistViewer

NOTE: these steps are also part of the CI pipeline of the Github project.
