.. _Installation of GNATprove: Installation of |GNATprove| =========================== In general, you will need to install a recent version of GNAT toolchain to compile |SPARK| programs. You will need to install one toolchain for each platform that you target, for example one toolchain for native compilation on your machine and one toolchain for cross compilation to an embedded platform. For analyzing |SPARK| programs, we recommend to first install GNAT Studio and then install |GNATprove| under the same location. Alternatively, you can install the GNATbench plug-in for Eclipse instead of GNAT Studio, using the Eclipse installation mechanism. The same version of GNAT Studio or GNATbench can support both native and cross compilations, as well as |SPARK| analysis. .. index:: GPR_PROJECT_PATH; at installation If you choose to install |GNATprove| in a different location, you should also modify the environment variables ``GPR_PROJECT_PATH`` (if you installed GNAT). On Windows, edit the value of ``GPR_PROJECT_PATH`` under the Environment Variables panel, and add to it the value of ``/lib/gnat`` and ``/share/gpr`` (so that |SPARK| can find library projects installed with GNAT) and ``/lib/gnat`` (so that GNAT can find the SPARK lemma library project installed with |SPARK|, for details see :ref:`Manual Proof Using SPARK Lemma Library`). On Linux/Mac with Bourne shell, use:: export GPR_PROJECT_PATH=/lib/gnat:/share/gpr:/lib/gnat:$GPR_PROJECT_PATH or on Linux/Mac with C shell:: setenv GPR_PROJECT_PATH /lib/gnat:/share/gpr:/lib/gnat:$GPR_PROJECT_PATH See below for detailed installation instructions of GNAT Studio and |GNATprove|. System Requirements ------------------- Formal verification is complex and time consuming, so |GNATprove| will benefit from all the speed (CPU) and memory (RAM) that can be made available. A minimum of 2 GB of RAM per core is recommended. More complex analyses will require more memory. A recommended configuration for running |GNATprove| on large systems is an x86-64 machine running Linux 64bits or Windows 64bits with at least 8 cores and 16 GB of RAM. Slower machines can be used to analyze small subsystems, but a minimum of 2.8Ghz CPU and 2 GB of RAM is required. Installation under Windows -------------------------- If not already done, first run the GNAT Studio installer by e.g. double clicking on `gnatstudio--i686-pc-mingw32.exe` and follow the instructions. .. note:: If you're using GNAT Community instead of GNAT Pro, you should run instead the GNAT Community installer, which installs GNAT Studio and SPARK. Then similarly run the |GNATprove| installer, by e.g. double clicking on `spark--x86-windows-bin.exe`. If you intend to install |GNATprove| in a location where a previous installation of |GNATprove| exists, we recommend that you uninstall the previous installation first. You should have sufficient rights for installing the package (administrator or normal rights depending on whether it is installed for all users or a single user). Installation under Linux/Mac ---------------------------- If not already done, you need to extract and install the GNAT Studio compressed tarball and then run the install, e.g.:: $ gzip -dc gnatstudio---bin.tar.gz | tar xf - $ cd gnatstudio---bin $ ./doinstall Then follow the instructions displayed. .. note:: If you're using GNAT Community instead of GNAT Pro, you should install instead the GNAT Community package, which installs GNAT Studio and SPARK. Then do the same with the SPARK tarball, e.g.:: $ gzip -dc spark---bin.tar.gz | tar xf - $ cd spark---bin $ ./doinstall Note that you need to have sufficient rights for installing the package at the chosen location (e.g. root rights for installing under /opt/spark). Installation of the FSF version of SPARK ---------------------------------------- A so-called FSF version of SPARK is freely available. Manual install ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ You can download a "gnatprove" package from this `github project `_. Extracting the package and adding the ``bin`` directory to your PATH is enough. You can get the GNAT compiler from the same link, and there is a `different project `_ for GNATStudio, the IDE. Install using alire ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ You can obtain SPARK via `Alire `_. To do this, follow the installation instructions of Alire, then you can add the ``gnatprove`` dependency to an alire project using:: alr with gnatprove Alire will download gnatprove if necessary. The older GNAT Community version ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ There is an older community version of the tools, packaged with GNAT and GNATStudio. You can download it from `AdaCore's website `_.
