By default, if Gemini++ is found on the system when KaliVeda is built from source, the simple interface class KVGemini will be compiled and installed along with the standard libraries.

For KaliVeda to "find" Gemini, there must be a shared library libGemini.so in one of the standard paths or in the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH. The header files (CNucleus.h etc.) must also be installed, and are expected to be in a directory whose path relative to the directory containing the shared library is ../include/gemini. If installed in a non-standard location, the user can give a hint to cmake when building KaliVeda using -DGEMINI_DIR=[path]; then we expect to find [path]/lib/libGemini.so and [path]/include/gemini/CNucleus.h etc.

Gemini++ can be obtained from Bob Charity's website (look for gemini.tar.gz in the gemini++ folder); however, the Makefile provided does not create a shared library, neither does it install either the library or the header files as required for use with KaliVeda.

Therefore we provide a specially-modified version of Gemini++ which you can download, build and install, and which will work with KaliVeda out of the box. It corresponds to the latest version available from the website above; the only modifications concern the creation of a shared library and installation of all necessary files in the right structure. Read and follow the instructions here.
