A tool for automating building Charm++ and ChaNGa
perl 5.2 or newer
An MPI-compatible compiler (if you want to use the MPI extensions)
For building without MPI, use
./configure
make
make test
If you have MPI installed, then use
./configure --enable-mpi
If your MPI compiler is named xxx rather than mpicc, then use
./configure --enable-mpi MPICC=xxx
If your MPI runner is named yyy rather than mpiexec, then use
make test MPIEXEC=yyy
The most common usage will be to check that Charm++ and ChaNGa are passing the "basic" build test.
perl build.pl --charm-target=YYY --build-type=basic --njobs=NN
where YYY is your regular Charm++ build target and NN is the number of make jobs per build to use. See the Usage section of the wiki for details.
To run parallel builds, you can use
mpiexec -np XX perl build.pl --charm-target=YYY --build-type=basic --njobs=NN
Note that the test suite uses MPI to distribute work across the XX MPI ranks in a round-robin fashion and then invokes make with NN jobs on each rank, so you will get XX * NN total threads across all machines.
