Installation on MacOS

For MacOS, the Quantum Origin SDK is provided in a .tar.gz archive. Extract this file to a new folder of your choice.

Installing

Once extracted, run the script qo-sdk-setup-environment.sh that will copy the library and header files to their correct locations, as described below.

$ chmod +x qo-sdk-setup-environment.sh
$ sudo ./qo-sdk-setup-environment.sh
