ALPS2.0:GettingStarted
From ALPS
Getting Started
You need:
- A Subversion client with SSL support
- See http://subversion.tigris.org/project_packages.html
- (on Mac OS X you can use e.g.: fink install svn-client-ssl)
- (in kubuntu use: sudo apt-get install subversion)
- (you can also install subversion from the source:
curl http://subversion.tigris.org/downloads/subversion-1.3.2.tar.gz | tar zxf - (optional) curl http://subversion.tigris.org/downloads/subversion-deps-1.3.2.tar.gz | tar zxf - cd subversion-1.3.2 ./configure --with-ssl make sudo make install
- The boost libraries 1.35
(presently this is the CVS head, go here for instructions how to access the CVS; during checkout use "boost" instead of "modulename") - Now build boost jam, where in the last line operating-system should be copied from the output of the build, $BINDIR is the directory where you want to install the executable:
cd boost/tools/jam/src sh build.sh (on MacOSX) install bin.operating-system/bjam $BINDIR (on Linux) cp bin.linuxx86/biam /usr/local/bin
- (NOT NEEDED) Next, build the boost binaries, where in the last line we assume you use the GNU compiler. In other cases, checkout here for the right toolset
cd boost/ bjam --toolset=gcc stage
- Now, you must apply for an account to the ALPS subversion repository. Send your request via email to Emanuel Gull. After an account has been created for you (usually, Emanuel is very fast in doing so...), change your password here.
- You are now in the position to get the latest ALPS V1 svn-head, by using
svn co --username your_user_name http://alps.comp-phys.org/svn/alps/trunk alps
- Setup BOOST_ROOT environment variable and user-config.jam
