85To build an application that uses the CUDD C++ interface, you should
86add
87<PRE>
88#include "cuddObj.hh"
89</PRE>
90to your source files. In addition to the normal CUDD libraries (see
91Section&nbsp;<A HREF="node3.html#sec:compileExt">3.1</A>) you should link
92<code>libobj.a</code><A NAME="1204"></A> to your executable. Refer to the
93<TT>Makefile<A NAME="1205"></A></TT> in the top level directory of the
94distribution for further details.

104<P>
105The following fragment of code illustrates some simple operations on
106BDDs using the C++ interface.
107<PRE>
108        Cudd mgr(0,0);
109        BDD x = mgr.bddVar();
110        BDD y = mgr.bddVar();
111        BDD f = x * y;
112        BDD g = y + !x;
113        cout &lt;&lt; "f is" &lt;&lt; (f &lt;= g ? "" : " not")
114             &lt;&lt; " less than or equal to g\n";
115</PRE>
116This code creates a manager called <code>mgr</code> and two variables in it.
117It then defines two functions <code>f</code> and <code>g</code> in terms of the
118variables. Finally, it prints a message based on the comparison of the
119two functions. No explicit referencing or dereferencing is required.
120The operators are overloaded in the intuitive way. BDDs are freed when
121execution leaves the scope in which they are defined or when the
122variables referring to them are overwritten.
