Getting Started

Note that this is done on an Ubuntu operating system, on Windows some steps are different.

  • Step 2: Extract and Configure it (my path: /home/jafarabadi/Documents/fftw-3.3.4)
cd /home/jafarabadi/Documents/fftw-3.3.4
./configure
make
make install
  • Alternatively install fftw through your package manager (e.g. pacman -Sy fftw)
  • Step 3: Add library to project: first open [your_project_name].pro file in Qt Creator and add this line:
LIBS += -lfftw3
  • Step 4: Example
#include <fftw3.h>
int N;

// Set N to the number of complex elements in the input array

fftw_complex *in, *out;
in = (fftw_complex *)fftw_malloc(sizeof(fftw_complex) * N);
out = (fftw_complex *)fftw_malloc(sizeof(fftw_complex) * N);

// Initialize 'in' with N complex entries

fftw_plan my_plan;
my_plan = fftw_plan_dft_1d(N, in, out, FFTW_FORWARD, FFTW_ESTIMATE);
fftw_execute(my_plan);

// Use 'out' for something

fftw_destroy_plan(my_plan);
fftw_free(in);
fftw_free(out);
