14 adcroft 1.2 We'll walk you through the compilation of "exp4" which simulates zonal
15 adcroft 1.1 flow over a Gaussian bump.
16     <p>From the top-level source directory, where you installed the code, cd
17     to verification/exp4:
18     <blockquote>
19     <pre>% cd verification/exp4</pre>
20     </blockquote>
21 adcroft 1.3 There are four sub-directories and a README file.
22 adcroft 1.1 <ul>
23     <li>
24     <i>CVS/ </i>is where version information is stored by CVS. You should never
25     need to enter/read/change this.</li>
26    
27     <br><b><i>Please don't delete this directory/information.</i></b>
28     <li>
29     <i>code/ </i>contains copies of the source code unique to this experiment
30     that over-ride the originals. This is our way of customizing the code.</li>
31    
32     <li>
33     <i>input/</i> contains the input files and parameters for this experiment.</li>
34    
35     <li>
36     <i>results/</i> contains a single text file, <i>output.txt</i>, which we
37     use for quickly assessing the state of the code.</li>
38     </ul>
39     Now cd into <i>input/</i> and run the configuration tool <i>genmake</i>:
40     <blockquote>
41     <pre>% cd input</pre>
42    
43     <pre>% ../../../tools/genmake -mods=../code</pre>
44    
45     <pre>% make depend</pre>
46     </blockquote>
47     <i>genmake</i> will create a file <i>Makefile </i>and report which packages
48     are being included/excluded. <i>make depend</i> figures out the file dependancies
49     that allows <i>make</i> to work efficiently. You'll also notice the number
50     of files in the current directory has greatly expanded. This are all symbolic
51     links to the original source code.
52     <p>You only need to do the above steps once; here after, you can edit the
53     code and re-compile with <i>make</i>.
54     <p>Compile and link the code:
55     <blockquote>
56     <pre>% make</pre>
57     </blockquote>
58     This will take some time, depending on your system. [Hint: compiling on
59     remotely mounted disks is often really slow]
60     <p>If all goes well, you're ready to <a href="runModel.html">run the model</a>...
