C++ Simulated Fare Quote System Library

Summary

SimFQT aims at providing a clean API and a simple implementation, as a C++ library, of a Travel-oriented fare engine. It corresponds to the simulated version of the real-world Fare Quote or pricing system.

SimFQT makes an extensive use of existing open-source libraries for increased functionality, speed and accuracy. In particular the Boost (C++ Standard Extensions: http://www.boost.org) library is used.

SimFQT is the one of the components of the Travel Market Simulator (https://travel-sim.org). However, it may be used in a stand-alone mode.

Installation

On Fedora/CentOS/RedHat distribution

Just use DNF:

$ dnf -y install simfqt-devel simfqt-doc

You can also get the RPM packages (which may work on Linux distributions like Novel Suse and Mandriva) from the Fedora repository (e.g., for Fedora Rawhide, https://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/fedora/devel/rawhide/x86_64/)

Building the library and test binary from Git repository

The Git repository may be cloned as following:

$ git clone git@github.com:airsim/simfqt.git simfqtgit # through SSH
$ git clone https://github.com/airsim/simfqt.git # if the firewall filters SSH
$ cd simfqtgit

Then, you need the following packages (Fedora/RedHat/CentOS names here, but names may vary according to distributions):

Building the library and test binary from the tarball

The latest stable source tarball (simfqt*.tar.gz or .bz2) can be found here: https://github.com/airsim/simfqt/releases

To customise the following to your environment, you can alter the path to the installation directory:

export INSTALL_BASEDIR="${HOME}/dev/deliveries"
export SFQ_VER="1.00.8"
if [ -d /usr/lib64 ]; then LIBSUFFIX="64"; fi
export LIBSUFFIX_4_CMAKE="-DLIB_SUFFIX=$LIBSUFFIX"

Then, as usual:
