New page

== Introduction ==

<code>CMake</code> is an open-source, cross-platform family of tools designed to build, test and package software.
<code>CMake</code> is used to control the software compilation process using simple platform and compiler independent configuration files, and generate native makefiles and workspaces that can be used in the compiler environment of your choice..

For <code>Geant4</code>, <code>CMake</code> is used to control the installation process through the generation of <code>CMake</code> <code>makefiles</code>.

== Details ==

; Website : https://cmake.org/
; Source URL : https://cmake.org/files/v3.5/
; Installed version : 3.5.2 (16 April 2016)
; Source code : <code>src/geant4-prerequisites/cmake/cmake-3.5.2-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz</code>

== Installation Notes ==

<code>Geant4</code> requires <code>CMake</code> 3.3 or higher.

Unlike most of the other <code>Geant4</code> prerequisites, <code>CMake</code> comes as precompiled binaries downloaded directly from https://cmake.org/download/ .
There are versions available for myriad operating systems, including 32-bit and 64-bit Linux.
These instructions show the latter since the UCL HEP Cluster runs 64-bit Scientific Linux.

There are a number of different <code>Zip</code> archive formats available: any of these can be downloaded and extracted into the appropriate location in <code>/unix/pbt/software/src</code> (see instructions below).

Once unpacked, the files need only be moved into the correct target directory.
Although files can be moved by hand for the '''Production''' environment, it is recommended to use the <code>dev2prod.sh</code> script as part of the automated copying process.
Instructions for the former, however, are given below.

== Installation ==

When downloading software, the downloaded tarball (or other <code>Zip</code> archive) should be placed in an appropriately named directory in <code>/unix/pbt/software/src</code>: the instructions below assume that the directory is <code>/unix/pbt/software/src/cmake</code>.

=== Source Code Extraction ===

<pre>
cd /unix/pbt/software/src/geant4-prerequisites/cmake
tar -xvz -f cmake-3.5.2-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz
</pre>

=== Build And Install ===

Although it is discouraged to copy the <code>CMake</code> binaries from the '''Development'''' to the '''Production''' directory — this should be handled by the <code>dev2prod.sh</code> script — instructions for doing so are given below.

==== Development Environment ====

<pre>
cd /unix/pbt/software/src/geant4-prerequisites/cmake
mv -v cmake-3.5.2-Linux-x86_64 /unix/pbt/software/dev/
</pre>

==== Production Environment ====

<pre>
cd /unix/pbt/software/dev/
cp -av cmake-3.5.2-Linux-x86_64/* /unix/pbt/software/prod/
