Prerequisites

You gotta start somewhere. Here that means you need Xerces-C, Cernlib, and Root. The following need to be defined first:

  • XERCESCROOT
  • ROOTSYS
  • CERN
  • CERN_LEVEL

and an example for jlabl3 (running RHEL6.4 as of Mon Oct 14 2013): [not yet tested]

setenv XERCESCROOT /group/halld/Software/ExternalPackages/xerces-c-3.1.1.Linux_CentOS6-x86_64-gcc4.4.6
setenv ROOTSYS /apps/root/PRO/root
setenv CERN /apps/cernlib/x86_64_rhel6
setenv CERN_LEVEL 2005

and an example for jlab1102 (running CentOS6 as of Fri Jan 25 2013): [tested to work by MMD: 2013/01/06]

setenv XERCESCROOT /group/halld/Software/ExternalPackages/xerces-c-3.1.1.Linux_CentOS6-x86_64-gcc4.4.6
setenv ROOTSYS /apps/root/PRO/root
setenv CERN /group/halld/Software/ExternalPackages/cernlib/Linux_CentOS6-x86_64-gcc4.4.6
setenv CERN_LEVEL 2005

ifarml5 (Fedora 8) no longer exists.

Check-out and build

The following will checkout out and build CCDB, JANA, HDDS, and sim-recon in the current directory in the C-shell:

setenv GLUEX_TOP `pwd`
svn checkout https://halldsvn.jlab.org/repos/trunk/scripts/build_scripts
source build_scripts/gluex_env.csh
set make_targets="ccdb_build jana_build hdds_build sim-recon_build"
make -f $BUILD_SCRIPTS/Makefile_all $make_targets

Note that this prescription uses gluex_env.csh to set-up the GlueX environment.

Run the code

Again you have to start somewhere. Let's assume that you want to create a directory to run the code, update your path, run the default configuration of the Monte Carlo and reconstruct the result with a default analysis code. The following assumes that you have already set up your environment as prescribed in the previous section.

Create a run directory

An example:

cd $HOME
mkdir run
cd run

Refresh the path

rehash

Run the Monte Carlo

cp $HALLD_HOME/src/programs/Simulation/HDGeant/control.in .
hdgeant

Smear the hits

mcsmear hdgeant.hddm

Run the analysis

hd_root hdgeant_smeared.hddm

What if I don't have the prerequisites?

If the system you are on does not have Xerces-C, ROOT, or CERNLIB, there are targets in Makefile_all that can build these for you (although YMMV). For example if you do not have xerces on your system then you can modify the instructions above as follows:

  1. Do not set the XERCESCROOT environment on your own (as described in the "pre-requisites" section above). gluex_env.csh will do that for you.
  2. Add the target "xerces_build" to the "make_targets" environment variable (as described in the "check-out and build" section above), i. e., say
    set make_targets="xerces_build jana_build hdds_build halld_build"
    

Likewise you can build ROOT and CERNLIB in a similar manner. The appropriate targets are "cernlib_build" and "root_build" respectively.
