Files and Directories
To compile and link your programs with LEDA, the LEDA main directory should contain
at least the following files and subdirectories:
Readme.txt
Install\win32 bcc lib.txt
incl\
man html\
Readme File
txt–version of this section
the LEDA include directory
HTML version of the LEDA user manual

• libl.lib, libg.lib, libp.lib, libw.lib, libgeow.lib, libd3.lib
Compiling and Linking Application Programs in a DOS-Box
(a) Setting the Environment Variables for Borland C++:
• Make sure that that the directory containing bcc32.exe is contained in your
path. bcc32.exe is located in the \bin subdirectory of your compiler (, e.g.,
c:\programs\borland\cbuilder6\bin)
• Make sure that there is a file bcc32.cfg in the \bin subdirectory of your
compiler which sets the compiler options for the Include and Lib paths (-I and
-L switches of compiler). On the authors machine the following lines had to be
added to bcc32.cfg:
-I"c:\programs\Borland\cbuilder6\include"
-L"c:\programs\Borland\cbuilder6\lib"
• Make sure that there is a file ilink32.cfg in the \bin subdirectory of your
compiler which sets the linker option for the Lib path. The author had to add
the following line to ilink32.cfg :
-L"c:\programs\Borland\cbuilder6\lib"
(b) Compiling and Linking Application Programs:
Now you can use the LEDA libraries as follows to compile and link your application
programs.
We use to indicate the root directory of your LEDA installation, e.g.,
c:\LEDA-4.4\.
Programs using basic data types:
bcc32 -P -I\incl -L prog.c libl.lib
