Prerequisites

The following programs are required to be installed on the local computer.

Quick Start

  1. Download ADMB

    Download source distribution admb-11.4.1-src.zip.

    Double click downloaded zip file and copy admb directory to the Local Drive (C:\>).

  2. Build ADMB source

    Open Command Prompt window.

    Change to admb directory.

    C:\> cd admb
    

    To build with MinGW C++ compiler, use the command below.

    To build with MinGW C++ compiler and Msys , use the command below.

    C:\admb\> make

       C:\admb\> cd examples\admb\simple
