AMF-Placer  2.0
An Open-Source Timing-driven Analytical Mixed-size FPGA Placer
Build the Placer

Build the Placer

First of all, users need to download the project and the command below will download it from GitHub:

git clone https://github.com/zslwyuan/AMF-Placer.git

We provide a script to build the placer and users can run the following command in the project root directory:

sudo apt-get install qt5-default #for GUI
./build.sh

after the first initial building with "build.sh" script, for the latter building after your update of source code, you can directly go into the build directory and type:

make -j8

This command will not download and building the Eigen3 source code and PaToH again, which might save some building time.
