This file describes how to use the or-tools .NET binary archive.

OR-Tools is located at http://code.google.com/p/or-tools

This module has been tested under:
  - ubuntu 10.04 and up (32 and 64 bit).
  - Mac OS X Lion with xcode 4.x (64 bit).
  - Microsoft Windows with Visual Studio 2012 and 2013 (32 and 64 bit).

Upon decompressing the archive, you will get the following structure:

or-tools/
  LICENSE-2.0.txt  <- Apache License
  README           <- This file
  data/            <- Data for the examples
  examples/        <- C# examples
  bin/             <- Directory containing assemblies and native libraries

Running the examples will involve compiling them, then running them.

Let's compile examples/csflow.cs and run it.

on windows 32 bit:
   csc /target:exe /out:csflow.exe /platform:x86 /lib:bin /r:Google.OrTools.dll examples\csflow.cs
   csflow.exe

on windows 64 bit:
   csc /target:exe /out:csflow.exe /platform:x64 /lib:bin /r:Google.OrTools.dll examples\csflow.cs
   csflow.exe

On linux (mono comes from the distribution, on ubuntu at least)
   mono-csc /target:exe /out:csflow.exe /platform:anycpu /lib:bin /r:Google.OrTools.dll examples/csflow.cs
   MONO_PATH=bin mono csflow.exe

On Mac OS X (mono is compiled under dependencies/install)
   dependencies\install\bin\mcs /target:exe /out:csflow.exe /platform:anycpu /lib:bin /r:Google.OrTools.dll examples/csflow.cs
   MONO_PATH=bin dependencies\install\bin\mono csflow.exe
