Dear HG,

I have only a bit of experience with CodeBlocks under windows.
VisualStudio should not be too much different. In all case you need to
build from source, either from git or from the latest tar.gz. The next
step is to use CMake to produce a project file for VisualStudio (see
the documentation of CMake for that). Alternatively, you should be
able to import the source code directly in VisualStudio.

All the best,

Julien.

Dear Tahira,

We do not provide binary packages of the libraries for Windows,
therefore you have to compile the libraries on this system.
The Bio++ libraries are fully standard C++ libraries, so there is
nothing special with them, apart that you need to compile them in the
right order (first bpp-core, then bpp-seq, then any other).
This forum is not meant to discuss any general C++ or system issues,
but the usual steps when you are using an IDE is to create a new
project for each library, and import all the .h and .cpp in that
project, in their corresponding subfolders. The IDE then usually
offers to build a custom Makefile or similar compilation script. To
facilitate this task, Bio++ uses the CMake building system, which
allows you to directly generate a CodeBlocks project file that you
should be able to import. You can give a look at the CMake
documentation to to get help in using this program, it has a graphical
interface and is not too complicated to use. CMakes usually helps, but
you do not have to use it. Importing the code directly in your IDE can
sometimes work better.

Hope this helps,

Julien.

Dear Tahira,

You might indeed find some useful tools in the Bio++ libraries for
your project, for handling sequence data and reading from/writing to
various formats. There are also basic implementations for pairwise
alignments. For efficient algorithms, you should probably give a look
at the SeqAn library, which can be used in combination with Bio++ if
that would be needed.

All the best,

Julien.

Thanks very much for your kind concern. I have included the bpp-core libraries with Dev C++ successfully. But the libsequence is not working with Dev C++. I have included libsequence the same way as i included the bpp-core. Can You help me to figures whats the problem. Secondly i wanted to ask that whether Seqan can be used with Dev C++ or not? If yes, how it is included. I m really stuck in this  stuff kindly help me.

Dear Tahira,

I am afraid this is going out of the scope of this forum. There are
most likely more appropriate places for discussing libsequence, seqan
and/or DevC++.
Do not hesitate however if you have any question on the use of the
Bio++ classes.

All the best,

Julien.

Thanks very much for your help. I have included the bio-core successfully in Dev C++ but i m failed to include the bpp-seq library. Is there any compatibility issue? Can you suggest me any easy to use ide with respect to Bio++ libraries?

Dear Tahira,

Unfortunately as Julien said IDE issues are beyond the scope of this forum. To my knowledge there is no "ready-to-use" C++ IDE, all need some learning. If you are a beginner you should look for an IDE for which (ideally) you can have support from a colleague or a friend, or one which has a good online documentation.

Best regards,

Nicolas Rochette

Thanks for your kind concern. Kindly tell me that how can i include bio++ library? i have included the bio++(bpp-core) but i m not able to include bio++(bpp-seq) successfully. can you guide me for this? I know the basic concepts of c++ and i have also used some of popular ide. I jst want to include bio++ in any ide. Kindly help me for this.

Dear Tahira,

Maybe we did not understand what you meant... are you experiencing a
compilation error with bpp-seq? If so, please provide more
information, notably the error message you get.

Best regards,

Julien.
