Compiling ASPECT and generating documentation
Compiling ASPECT and generating documentation#
After downloading ASPECT and having built the libraries it builds on, you can compile it by typing
make
on the command line (or make -jN
if you have multiple processors in your
machine, where N
is the number of processors). This builds the
ASPECT executable which will reside in the build
directory and will be named aspect
. To run
ASPECT from the main source directory, you would need
to reference it as ./build/aspect
. If you intend to modify
ASPECT for your own experiments, you may want to also
generate documentation about the source code. This can be done using the
command
cd doc; make
which assumes that you have the doxygen
documentation generation tool
installed. Most Linux distributions have packages for doxygen
. The result
will be the file doc/doxygen/index.html
that is the starting point for
exploring the documentation.
