cannam@127 80
cannam@127 81 <p>FFTW includes two standalone utility programs that deal with wisdom. We
cannam@127 82 merely summarize them here, since they come with their own <code>man</code>
cannam@127 83 pages for Unix and GNU systems (with HTML versions on our web site).
cannam@127 84 </p>
cannam@127 85 <p>The first program is <code>fftw-wisdom</code> (or <code>fftwf-wisdom</code> in
cannam@127 86 single precision, etcetera), which can be used to create a wisdom file
cannam@127 87 containing plans for any of the transform sizes and types supported by
cannam@127 88 FFTW. It is preferable to create wisdom directly from your executable
cannam@127 89 (see <a href="Caveats-in-Using-Wisdom.html#Caveats-in-Using-Wisdom">Caveats in Using Wisdom</a>), but this program is useful for
cannam@127 90 creating global wisdom files for <code>fftw_import_system_wisdom</code>.
cannam@127 91 <a name="index-fftw_002dwisdom-utility-1"></a>
cannam@127 92 </p>
cannam@127 93
cannam@127 94 <p>The second program is <code>fftw-wisdom-to-conf</code>, which takes a wisdom
cannam@127 95 file as input and produces a <em>configuration routine</em> as output. The
cannam@127 96 latter is a C subroutine that you can compile and link into your
cannam@127 97 program, replacing a routine of the same name in the FFTW library, that
cannam@127 98 determines which parts of FFTW are callable by your program.
cannam@127 99 <code>fftw-wisdom-to-conf</code> produces a configuration routine that links
cannam@127 100 to only those parts of FFTW needed by the saved plans in the wisdom,
cannam@127 101 greatly reducing the size of statically linked executables (which should
cannam@127 102 only attempt to create plans corresponding to those in the wisdom,
cannam@127 103 however).
