This base directory for TriBITS acts as a TriBITS Project, a TriBITS Repository, and a TriBITS Package. As such, it contains the standard files that are found in a TriBITS Project, Repository, and Package:
ProjectName.cmake # PROJECT_NAME=TriBITS CMakeLists.txt # PROJECT_NAME = PACKAGE_NAME = TriBITS PackagesList.cmake # Lists just "TriBITS . PT" TPLsList.cmake # Lists only MPI cmake/ # Dependencies.cmake, etc.
The core functionality of TriBITS is provided in the following directory, 'tribits'/:
tribits/: The part of TriBITS that CMake projects use to access TriBITS
functionality and assimilate into the TriBITS framework. It also contains
basic documentation and examples. Files and directories from here are what
get installed on the system or are snapshotted into
<projectDir>/cmake/tribits/. Each TriBITS Project decides what parts of
it wants to install or snapshot using the script
tribits/snapshot_tribits.py (which takes arguments for what dirs to
snapshot, see below). This directory contains no tests at all. All of the
tests for TriBITS are in the test/ directory (see below). The breakdown of
the contents of tribits/ are described in the file
tribits/README.DIRECTORY_CONTENTS.rst.
The following directories are not snapshotted into
<projectDir>/cmake/tribits/ by the script tribits/snapshot_tribits.py:
test/: Contains all of the automated tests for TriBITS as part of the TriBITS "TriBITS" package. When doing development, these tests are critical.
dev_testing/: Contains scripts that support the development of the TriBITS system itself in various contexts.
common_tools/: Contains misc utilities that are not central to the TriBITS system but are very helpful to keep around and do not take up too much space.
refactoring/: Some scripts and other files that have aided in various refactorings of TriBITS and are used to upgrade client TriBITS projects.
