Install VTR

  1. Download the VTR release

  2. Unpack the release in a directory of your choice (herafter referred to as $VTR_ROOT)

  3. Navigate to $VTR_ROOT and run

    make
    

    which will build all the required tools.

Warning

$VTR_ROOT should be replaced with the path to the root of VTR source tree on your machine.

The complete VTR flow has been tested on 64-bit Linux systems. The flow should work in other platforms (32-bit Linux, Windows with cygwin) but this is untested.
