Welcome to Equalizer, the standard middleware to create and deploy parallel, scalable OpenGL applications. It enables applications to benefit from multiple graphics cards, processors and computers to scale the rendering performance, visual quality and display size. An Equalizer application runs unmodified on any visualization system, from a simple workstation to large scale graphics clusters, multi-GPU workstations and Virtual Reality installations.

  mkdir build
  cd build
  cmake ..
  make

If CMake and git are in PATH, run the following batch script to build using Visual Studio 2013:

  build.bat

If your build fails with a Could NOT find Boost message, you may have a bad environment setup for Boost and CMake. To remedy this, CMake requires you to properly hint it to find your Boost distribution. Make sure you have the following variables set up:

1. BOOST_ROOT pointing to your Boost root directory.
2. BOOST_INCLUDEDIR pointing to your Boost includes (usually where BOOST_ROOT points to).
3. BOOST_LIBRARYDIR pointing to your Boost binary directory (lib32-msvc-12.0 for instance).
4. Boost_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS having major, minor, and patch versions (separated by space).
5. (optional) Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS set to ON if you want to statically link to Boost. (default is OFF)
6. (optional) Boost_USE_MULTITHREAD set to ON if you want to use Boost multi-threaded libraries. (default is ON)

An example set up would be (typed in Windows command prompt):

setx `BOOST_ROOT`                "F:\boost_1_57_0\"
setx `BOOST_INCLUDEDIR`          "F:\boost_1_57_0\"
setx `BOOST_LIBRARYDIR`          "F:\boost_1_57_0\lib32-msvc-12.0\"
setx `Boost_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS` "1.57 1.57.0"
setx `Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS`     "ON"
setx `Boost_USE_MULTITHREAD`     "ON"
