Rave Installation
Dependencies
Rave needs the following software:
- (Gnu) C++ compiler
- boost
- clhep2 (should work with clhep1, also, though).
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.
Our expertise in this area is likely to rise in the near future.
