Installation Instructions
=========================
For a full explanation of the DUNE installation process please read
the installation notes [0]. The following introduction is meant for
the impatient.
Getting started
---------------
Suppose you have downloaded all DUNE modules of interest to your
computer and extracted then in one common directory. See [1] for a
list of available modules.
To compile the modules Dune has to check several components of
your system and whether prerequisites within the modules are met. For
the ease of users we have designed a custom build system on top of the
automake tools. Run
./dune-common/bin/dunecontrol all
to commence those tests and build all modules you have
downloaded. Don't worry about messages telling you that libraries are
missing: they are only needed for grid-self-checks we need for
developing.
You can customize the build to your specific needs by using an options file
(see below)
./dune-common/bin/dunecontrol --opts=/path_to/file.opts
If you did not tell dunecontrol to install with an options file you
need to run
./dune-common/bin/dunecontrol make install
to install Dune (you may need root-permissions for the install
part depending on the prefix set)
A more comprehensive introduction to the build system can be found in [2].
Passing options to the build process
------------------------------------
Using the dunecontrol script the following atomic commands can be
executed:
- autogen (runs autogen in each module, only needed when downloaded
via svn)
- configure (runs the configure tests for each module
- exec (executes a command in each module directory)
- make (runs make for each module)
- update (updates the svn version)
The composite command all simply runs autogen, configure and make for
each module.
As it is often not convenient (and for the target all impossible) to
specify the options for each command as parameters after the call, one
can pass the options via file specified by the --opts=<file>
option. For each atomic command one specify the options via a ine
<COMMANY_UPPERCASE>_FLAGS=<flags> # e.g.: MAKE_FLAGS=install
The available options for make and svn are the natural ones. The
configure commands available can be found by issuing
dunecontrol --only=dune-common configure --help
and for autogen by
dunecontrol --only=dune-common autogen --help
(In the svn version this has to be calles after running autogen.)
An example of an options file is
# use a special compiler (g++ version 3.4) and install to a custom
# directory, default is /usr/local/bin
CONFIGURE_FLAGS="CXX=g++-3.4 --prefix='/tmp/Hu Hu'"
# Set the default target of make to install. Now the call above will
# not just build the DUNE modules but also install it
MAKE_FLAGS=install
# The default versions of automake and autogen are not sufficient
# therefore we need to specify what versions to use
AUTOGEN_FLAGS="--ac=2.59 --am=1.9
