NAME

depqbf - a solver for quantified boolean formulae

SYNOPSIS

depqbf [options ...] [NUM] [FILE]

DESCRIPTION

depqbf is a search-based solver for quantified boolean formulae (QBF) in prenex conjunctive normal form. It is based on the DPLL algorithm for QBF with conflict-driven clause and solution-driven cube learning. By analyzing the structure of a formula, DepQBF tries to identify independent variables. In addition to other benefits, this often increases freedom for decision making. See also the JSAT system description of DepQBF 0.1 from QBFEVAL'10 for references and a brief outline of the idea.

depqbf reads QBF formulas in QDIMACS format. If FILE is not given, it reads its input from stdin. It complies with input/output standards as required by QBFEVAL'10.

OPTIONS

depqbf accepts the following options:
-h, --help
Print usage information.
--version
Print version.
--pretty-print
Only parse and print formula.
-v
Increase verbosity incrementally.
NUM
Optional: time-out after NUM seconds.
FILE
Optional: read input from FILE.

EXIT STATUS

The exit status is 10 if the QBF formula given as input is satisfiable, and 20 if it is unsatisfiable; any other exit code indicates that the formula was not solved.
