Building MXNET

Primary source [https://mxnet.apache.org/get_started/build_from_source]

Make

#!/bin/sh
rm -rf build
mkdir -p build && cd build
cmake  -DUSE_CUDA=OFF -DUSE_OPENMP=ON -DUSE_OPENCV=ON -DUSE_MKL_IF_AVAILABLE=OFF -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..
make -j USE_CPP_PACKAGE=1
make install

Release with CUDA enabled

#!/bin/sh
rm -rf build
mkdir -p build && cd build
cmake -DUSE_CPP_PACKAGE=ON -DUSE_CUDA=ON -DUSE_CUDNN=ON  -DUSE_TVM_OP=OFF -DUSE_OPENMP=ON -DUSE_OPENCV=ON -DUSE_MKL_IF_AVAILABLE=OFF -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .. -GNinja ..

Ninja build

#!/bin/sh
rm -rf build
mkdir -p build && cd build
cmake -DUSE_CPP_PACKAGE=ON -DUSE_CUDA=OFF -DUSE_OPENMP=ON -DUSE_OPENCV=ON -DUSE_MKL_IF_AVAILABLE=OFF -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug .. -GNinja ..

# This uses CMake's Build Tool Mode, which is an abstract interface for a couple of commands to the native build tool (e.g. make or Ninja) 
cmake --build . --config Debug -j 24

# Build and Install
cmake --build . --target install  --config Debug -j 24
