Chris@82 79
Chris@82 80 <p>FFTW includes two standalone utility programs that deal with wisdom. We
Chris@82 81 merely summarize them here, since they come with their own <code>man</code>
Chris@82 82 pages for Unix and GNU systems (with HTML versions on our web site).
Chris@82 83 </p>
Chris@82 84 <p>The first program is <code>fftw-wisdom</code> (or <code>fftwf-wisdom</code> in
Chris@82 85 single precision, etcetera), which can be used to create a wisdom file
Chris@82 86 containing plans for any of the transform sizes and types supported by
Chris@82 87 FFTW. It is preferable to create wisdom directly from your executable
Chris@82 88 (see <a href="Caveats-in-Using-Wisdom.html#Caveats-in-Using-Wisdom">Caveats in Using Wisdom</a>), but this program is useful for
Chris@82 89 creating global wisdom files for <code>fftw_import_system_wisdom</code>.
Chris@82 90 <a name="index-fftw_002dwisdom-utility-1"></a>
Chris@82 91 </p>
Chris@82 92
Chris@82 93 <p>The second program is <code>fftw-wisdom-to-conf</code>, which takes a wisdom
Chris@82 94 file as input and produces a <em>configuration routine</em> as output. The
Chris@82 95 latter is a C subroutine that you can compile and link into your
Chris@82 96 program, replacing a routine of the same name in the FFTW library, that
Chris@82 97 determines which parts of FFTW are callable by your program.
Chris@82 98 <code>fftw-wisdom-to-conf</code> produces a configuration routine that links
Chris@82 99 to only those parts of FFTW needed by the saved plans in the wisdom,
Chris@82 100 greatly reducing the size of statically linked executables (which should
Chris@82 101 only attempt to create plans corresponding to those in the wisdom,
Chris@82 102 however).
