OpenSMT2 is an SMT solver written in C++. It supports reading files in SMT-LIB2 format and the theories QF_UF, QF_RDL, QF_IDL, QF_LRA, QF_LIA, QF_UFLRA, QF_UFLIA and QF_AX. The system also provides an API; the distribution includes a minimal example how to use the API.

Building from source

To build the system from the source code repository, you need a C++17 compliant compiler and the following libraries and headers installed:

• gmp
• libedit or readline (optional)

In addition the smtlib2 parser uses flex and bison. OpenSMT2 uses cmake as a build system generator. To compile OpenSMT2 (using make build system), use the following command

$ mkdir build; cd build; cmake ..; make

For better interactive experience from shell, OpenSMT can be linked against the BSD-licensed line-editing library Editline Library. You can optionally choose to build OpenSMT against the GPL-licensed GNU Readline Library. Building OpenSMT in this way means that the resulting binary is GPL licensed, and not MIT licensed. To enable line editing with editline:

$ cmake -DENABLE_LINE_EDITING:BOOL=ON ..

and to enable readline and create a GPL-licensed build of OpenSMT:

$ cmake -DENABLE_LINE_EDITING:BOOL=ON -DUSE_READLINE:BOOL=ON ..

Changing build type

The default build type is RELEASE. Different build type can be configured using cmake variable CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE. For example, to create a debug build use

$ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..

Restricting components to build

By default, when building OpenSMT, an executable, a static library, and a shared library are created. However, in certain circumstances, it is desirable not to build components you do not need. In these instances, you turn off building components:

• Passing -DBUILD_STATIC_LIBS:BOOL=OFF will turn off building the static archive for OpenSMT (libopensmt2.a)

• Passing -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL=OFF will turn off building the shared library for OpenSMT (libopensmt2.so)

• Passing -DBUILD_EXECUTABLES:BOOL=OFF will turn off building the OpenSMT executable (opensmt)

Given how the opensmt executable is built, you cannot build the executable (i.e., with the default value of -DBUILD_EXECUTABLES:BOOL=ON) with the static archive off (i.e., with -DBUILD_STATIC_LIBS:BOOL=OFF).

Unit tests

If you have cmake version 3.11 or higher, the build system will construct unit tests. These are available through

$ ctest

Installing OpenSMT2

As long as you haven't disabled building them, the path to the OpenSMT executable is <BUILD_DIR>/src/bin/opensmt, the OpenSMT libraries are located in <BUILD_DIR>/src/api. To install OpenSMT in your system simply run

$ make install

The install directory can be customized using cmake variable CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX. The default is /usr/local. This installs the library in the folder <INSTALL_DIR>/lib and puts the necessary header files in the folder <INSTALL_DIR>/include/opensmt.

Capabilities and usage examples

OpenSMT is an SMT solver, it decides satisfiability of logical formulas in fragments of first-order logic. The input format is SMT-LIB2 and OpenSMT currently supports the following SMT-LIB logics: QF_UF, QF_RDL, QF_IDL, QF_LRA, QF_LIA, QF_UFLRA and QF_UFLIA, both in a single-query and an incremental mode. Support for QF_AX is preliminary and only in a single-query mode.

To run OpenSMT on a SMT-LIB2 file (.smt2) simply pass the path to the file as an argument to the executable:

$ opensmt test.smt2

It is also possible to run OpenSMT without any arguments, in which case it reads the input from the standard input.

Interpolation

OpenSMT supports a range of interpolation algorithms for propositional logic, linear real arithmetic, and uninterpreted functions with equality.

When using OpenSMT as an executable, interpolation is off by default. It can be enabled by passing -i option to the executable, or by setting the SMT-LIB option produce-interpolants in the input file before the (set-logic) command.

(set-option :produce-interpolants 1)

When using OpenSMT as a library, the option needs to be set in SMTConfig before Opensmt object is created, see this example.

Interpolation is supported for SMT-LIB logics QF_UF, QF_LRA, and QF_LIA in both single-query and incremental mode. An example of how SMT-LIB2 file can be extended to instruct OpenSMT to compute interpolants can be found here.
