SVN access (developer version)

Installation

The 2.0 version follows the stnadard CMake procedure. After downloading the source package go into the main dir and type:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
make install

If needed it is also possible to configure some options for the installation. You can do this manually specifying the parameters using -D switch, eg. cmake .. -DMUSCLE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/somelocation, but the easiest way is to use ccmake or gmake programs. The following options may be particullarly important:

• MUSCLE_INSTALL_PREFIX - the default prefix for the installation (default: /opt/muscle)
• BUILD_API_DOC - determines if the API documentation should be build (default: No)
• BUILD_MTO - determines if the Muscle Transport Overlay should be build (default: Yes)
• BUILD_CPP - determines if the CPP part of the Muscle should be build (default: Yes)

Regression tests

After invoking the make install command, it is possible to make regression tests to check the consistency of the MUSCLE installation:

make test
