Rave Installation

Dependencies

Rave needs the following software:

(Gnu) C++ compiler
boost
clhep

Linux/Unix?

Rave is fully autotooled. configure; make; make install are your friends. Package builders may want to call bootstrap before using configure and make.

Also note that various packages exist, see the download section. Also check configure --help for special configurations.

Java

In order to be able to build the java bindings, the following applications need to be installed on the system:

javac (gcj will soon be added as another option)
java
jar or fastjar
swig

If these are all found, then building the java bindings will be enabled per default. Disabling the bindings can also be specified explicitly:

./configure --disable-java

It might be necessary to tell configure where to look for the java binaries and libraries:

./configure --with-java-home=<JAVAHOME>

Note that with rave < 0.2.2, for java to work, it is necessary to turn off optimisation, e.g.

configure CXXFLAGS="-g"

This is fixed in subversion head.

Cygwin

Building under cygwin may be tricky :-( Currently we've been able to compile a static version of rave only with a static version of clhep (compiled under cygwin, as well).

This should be achievable without special tweaking and special configuration settings, though. Just an ordinary configure; make ...

Using clhep libraries compiled with VC++ (the official way to build clhep under windows) has not yet been tried.
