d@0 56
d@0 57 <p><a name="index-code-generator-376"></a>
d@0 58 The directory <code>genfft</code> contains the programs that were used to
d@0 59 generate FFTW's &ldquo;codelets,&rdquo; which are hard-coded transforms of small
d@0 60 sizes.
d@0 61 <a name="index-codelet-377"></a>We do not expect casual users to employ the generator, which is a rather
d@0 62 sophisticated program that generates directed acyclic graphs of FFT
d@0 63 algorithms and performs algebraic simplifications on them. It was
d@0 64 written in Objective Caml, a dialect of ML, which is available at
d@0 65 <a href="http://pauillac.inria.fr/ocaml/">http://pauillac.inria.fr/ocaml/</a>.
d@0 66 <a name="index-Caml-378"></a>
d@0 67 If you have Objective Caml installed (along with recent versions of
d@0 68 GNU <code>autoconf</code>, <code>automake</code>, and <code>libtool</code>), then you
d@0 69 can change the set of codelets that are generated or play with the
d@0 70 generation options. The set of generated codelets is specified by the
d@0 71 <code>dft/codelets/*/Makefile.am</code>,
d@0 72 <code>dft/simd/codelets/Makefile.am</code>, and
d@0 73 <code>rdft/codelets/*/Makefile.am</code> files. For example, you can add
d@0 74 efficient REDFT codelets of small sizes by modifying
d@0 75 <code>rdft/codelets/r2r/Makefile.am</code>.
d@0 76 <a name="index-REDFT-379"></a>After you modify any <code>Makefile.am</code> files, you can type <code>sh
d@0 77 bootstrap.sh</code> in the top-level directory followed by <code>make</code> to
d@0 78 re-generate the files.
d@0 79
d@0 80 <p>We do not provide more details about the code-generation process, since
d@0 81 we do not expect that most users will need to generate their own code.
d@0 82 However, feel free to contact us at <a href="mailto:fftw@fftw.org">fftw@fftw.org</a> if
d@0 83 you are interested in the subject.
d@0 84
d@0 85 <p><a name="index-monadic-programming-380"></a>You might find it interesting to learn Caml and/or some modern
d@0 86 programming techniques that we used in the generator (including monadic
d@0 87 programming), especially if you heard the rumor that Java and
d@0 88 object-oriented programming are the latest advancement in the field.
d@0 89 The internal operation of the codelet generator is described in the
d@0 90 paper, &ldquo;A Fast Fourier Transform Compiler,&rdquo; by M. Frigo, which is
d@0 91 available from the <a href="http://www.fftw.org">FFTW home page</a> and also
d@0 92 appeared in the <cite>Proceedings of the 1999 ACM SIGPLAN Conference on
d@0 93 Programming Language Design and Implementation (PLDI)</cite>.
