Chapter 2: Installation Installing the Synplify DSP Software<br />
Installing Synplify DSP on a Linux Platform<br />
You can use one of two procedures to install the software on a Linux<br />
platform, depending on whether you have write permission to the MATLAB<br />
installation. See the following:<br />
• Installing with Write Permissions to the MATLAB Installation, on<br />
page 2-8<br />
• Installing Without Write Permissions to the MATLAB Installation, on<br />
page 2-9<br />
Installing with Write Permissions to the MATLAB Installation<br />
Use this procedure when you have write permission to the MATLAB installation<br />
and you want to install Synplify DSP permanently into the MATLAB<br />
environment. If you do not have write permission, use the procedure<br />
described in Installing Without Write Permissions to the MATLAB Installation,<br />
on page 2-9.<br />
1. Make sure you have a supported version of the MATLAB and Simulink ®<br />
software from The MathWorks ® installed.<br />
– For supported versions, check the release notes.<br />
– For a list of required MATLAB features that must be installed, see<br />
MathWorks Required Features, on page 2-11.<br />
2. Install the Linux software.<br />
– Download the software from the <strong>Synopsys</strong> download website<br />
(http://www.solvnet.synopsys.com).<br />
– Extract the software using the tar command, where toolversion is the<br />
combined tool name abbreviation or tool suite name and version<br />
string. For example:<br />
% tar -xvf toolversion_linux.tar<br />
– Run the installation script in the directory location containing the<br />
extracted files. For example:<br />
% cd extract_directory<br />
% ./linux/install.sh LO<br />
3. Start MATLAB. In MATLAB, change the working directory to<br />
/mathworks.<br />
