PVS Specification and Verification System

=========================================

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/SRI-CSL/PVS.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/SRI-CSL/PVS)

PVS is a verification system: that is, a specification language integrated with support tools and a theorem prover. It is intended to capture the state-of-the-art in mechanized formal methods and to be sufficiently rugged that it can be used for significant applications. PVS is a research prototype: it evolves and improves as we develop or apply new capabilities, and as the stress of real use exposes new requirements.

For documentation and pre-built binaries, please visit http://pvs.csl.sri.com/.

Making PVS 8.0 from sources

---------------------------

In short:

0. For Macs, you'll need to install xcode, in Ubuntu, apt-get install build-essential

1. Use your favorite package manager to get SBCL and Emacs

2. git clone https://github.com/SRI-CSL/PVS.git

3. cd PVS

4. Run ./configure, use your package manager if, e.g., curl is missing

5. Run make

Notes:

1. This works for Mac M1 natively

2. For some reason the make on Intel Macs pauses a long time at the

   compile for list-decls; just be patient.

3. There is a Dockerfile that will create a Docker image for PVS; this can

   be used on a Windows platform.

4. If you're using the current version of NASA's pvslib, you will get some

   errors. You can temporarily use the pvs8.0 branch of 

     https://github.com/samowre/pvslib.git,

   which is a fork of it upgraded to work with PVS 8.0 and SBCL.
