**********************************************************************

You can obtain the source code for the CoinMP package in two ways:

1. Obtain the source directly from the COIN-OR subversion repository
   (recommended).  For this you needs the program 'svn' installed on
   your machine, and output of "svn --version" must contain 
   "handles 'https' scheme".

   Assuming that you want to download the code into a subdirectory
   "COIN-CoinMP", you type

   svn co https://projects.coin-or.org/svn/CoinMP/stable/1.2 Coin-CoinMP

2. Download the tarball from http://www.coin-or.org/download/source/CoinMP
   extract it, for example, with

   gunzip CoinMP-1.2.0.tgz
   tar xvf CoinMP-1.2.0.tar

   (Here "-1.2.0" is of course replaced by the actual release string 
    in the tarball you downloaded.)

To build the 'CoinMP.dll', start MS Visual Studio 8 (2005) or 9 (2008), 
open the solution file 'CoinMP.sln' in the CoinMP\MSVisualStudio\v8 
folder and select 'Build Solution' from the 'Build' menu.

**********************************************************************

Go into the directory that you just downloaded or extracted (e.g.,
Coin-CoinMP or CoinMP_2006Jun07).  Then you type

   ./configure

Note that you might have to specify additional options, in case you
don't want to use the default choices that configure makes (e.g.,
compilers).  Please visit

   https://projects.coin-or.org/BuildTools/wiki/user-configure

and the CoinMP Trac page

   https://projects.coin-or.org/CoinMP

for more information.

If everything went fine, you will see at the end of the output

   "Main configuration of CoinMP successful"

***           Unix     COMPILATION AND INSTALLATION                ***
**********************************************************************

In the directory where you ran the configure script:

1. Compile the code by typing

   make

2. To test if the code works, you can type

   make test

3. To install the code, you type

   make install

   After this, you will find the executables, libraries and header
   files in the "bin", "lib" and "include" subdirectory, respectively.

More information on the compilation and installation can be found at

   https://projects.coin-or.org/BuildTools/wiki/user-compile

Now you can link your own code with the installed libraries.  You can
find examples in the

   CoinMP/examples/

subdirectory, see also the information at
