The Mathematical Components repository
This repository holds the Mathematical Components Library for the Coq system: an extensive body of mathematics formalized in the Coq/SSReflect language.
It also contains the proof of the Odd Order Theorem, that builds on top of the Mathematical Components Library.
Layout and compilation of the library
The library is divided into packages which group together related files. Each package defines a distribution and compilation unit.
Packages can be compiled using the traditional make utility or
the more recent OPAM one.
We provide a convenience root Makefile in order to compile all packages
at once using make. This is the simplest option.
We also provide opam files to compile each package using OPAM.
Note that the OPAM packages for the Mathematical Components library
are available in the standard Coq OPAM repositories,
under the coq-mathcomp- name space. If you are only interested
in installing a Mathematical Components package via OPAM, follow
the standard instructions available on the Coq website.
Compilation and installation with make
The instructions assume you are in the mathcomp directory and that
you have a supported version of Coq.
The list of Coq versions that are known to work can be obtained with:
ls ssreflect/plugin/
Alternatively, if you are familiar with the OPAM slang:
grep depends: ssreflect/opam
If coqc is in your PATH, then you are good to go. Alternatively you
can export the COQBIN variable to tell make where the coqc binary is:
export COQBIN=/home/gares/COQ/coq/bin/
To compile the entire library just type make. If you have parallel
hardware then make -j 3 is probably a faster option.
The files can be edited using CoqIDE or Proof General, or any
other editor that understands the _CoqProject file, with no
further configuration from the mathcomp directory.
coqide ssreflect/div.v
Note that you may need to enable _CoqProject processing in your
editor (e.g. the default for CoqIDE is to ignore it).
To install the compiled library, just execute make install.
Compilation and installation with OPAM
The instructions assume you are in the mathcomp directory
and that you have OPAM installed and configured with the
standard Coq repositories.
For each package, pin the opam file:
opam pin -n add ssreflect
This can be achieved in one go as follows:
for P in */opam; do opam pin -n add ${P%%/opam}; done
Then you can use opam install to compile and install any package.
For example:
opam install coq.8.5.dev coq-mathcomp-ssreflect
