Building and Installing Zorba

Building Zorba

Once you have successfully configured your Zorba build (as described in Configuring a Zorba Build Using CMake), you should now be able to build the project.

The build will take some time. If it finishes successfully, you're ready to install and run Zorba.

Install Zorba

In either case, Zorba will be installed into the location specified by the CMake configuration parameter CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX, as described in Configuration Parameters (the -D arguments).

Setting the PATH

In order for users on your system to use Zorba, the bin/ subdirectory of your installation directory must be on their path.

Testing your Zorba Installation

Once Zorba is installed and on your path, try it out! Type:

zorba -q "1+1"

You should get the following output:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
2

If so - congratulations! You're done and ready to use Zorba.
