13 Compile the code</h1></center>
14 We'll walk you through the compilation of "exp4" which simulates zonal
15 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 There are four sub-directories and a README file.
22 <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>...
