+# LibSEDML
+Some time ago I developed [libSedML](http://libsedml.sf.net) a C# library that fully supports [SED-ML](http://sed-ml.org) for SBML as well as CellML models for creation of the description just as for the execution of Simulation Experiments. However, frequently the question to a C++ based library comes up. This project makes use of [libSBML](http://sbml.org/Software/libSBML) XML layer as well as code generation as starting point to produce a library for reading and writing of SED-ML models. 
+
+## Dependencies
+This library requires libSBML to be present, as its XML parsing layer will be used. for that either expat, xerces-c or libXML2 needs to be available. 
+
+## Building 
+This library uses [CMake](http://cmake.org) to build the library, so from an initial checkout all you would need todo is to run: 
+
+
+    mkdir build  
+    cd build
+    cmake -DLIBSBML_LIBRARY=< path to libsbml lib> -DLIBSBML_INCLUDE_DIR=< path to includes > ...  
+    make  
+    make install
+
+Should libSBML be installed in a default location it will be found automatically.
