This is the git repository for LibTomMath, a free open source portable number theoretic multiple-precision integer (MPI) library written entirely in C.
API/ABI changes: check here
The develop
branch contains the in-development version. Stable releases are tagged.
Documentation is built from the LaTeX file bn.tex
. There is also limited documentation in tommath.h
.
There is also a document, tommath.pdf
, which describes the goals of the project and many of the algorithms used.
The project can be build by using make
. Along with the usual make
, make clean
and make install
,
there are several other build targets, see the makefile for details.
There are also makefiles for certain specific platforms.
Tests are located in demo/
and can be built in two flavors.
make test
creates a stand-alone test binary that executes several test routines. make mtest_opponent
creates a test binary that is intended to be run against mtest
.
mtest
can be built with make mtest
and test execution is done like ./mtest/mtest | ./mtest_opponent
.
mtest
is creating test vectors using an alternative MPI library and test
is consuming these vectors to verify correct behavior of ltm
Building is straightforward for GNU Linux only, the section “Building LibTomMath” in the documentation in doc/bn.pdf
has the details.
The project provides support for the CMake build system.
git clone https://github.com/libtom/libtommath.git
mkdir -p libtommath/build
cd libtommath/build
cmake ..
make -j$(nproc)
A shared library build can be done by setting -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=On
when invoking the cmake
command.
