dlib C++ library

Dlib is a modern C++ toolkit containing machine learning algorithms and tools
for creating complex software in C++ to solve real world problems.  See
http://dlib.net for the main project documentation and API reference.



COMPILING DLIB C++ EXAMPLE PROGRAMS
   Go into the examples folder and type:
       mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. ; cmake --build .
   That will build all the examples.  If you have a CPU that supports AVX
   instructions then turn them on like this:
       mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DUSE_AVX_INSTRUCTIONS=1; cmake --build .
   Doing so will make some things run faster.

COMPILING DLIB Python API
   Before you can run the Python example programs you must compile dlib. Type:
       python setup.py install
   or type
       python setup.py install --yes USE_AVX_INSTRUCTIONS
   if you have a CPU that supports AVX instructions, since this makes some
   things run faster.  

RUNNING THE UNIT TEST SUITE
   Type the following to compile and run the dlib unit test suite:
       cd dlib/test
       mkdir build
       cd build
       cmake ..
       cmake --build . --config Release
       ./dtest --runall

   Note that on windows your compiler might put the test executable in a
   subfolder called Release.  If that's the case then you have to go to that
   folder before running the test.

dlib however you like, even in closed source commercial software.
