glsim ===== The glsim project aims to provide a C++ class library to build numerical simulation software. The basic library consists of classes that handle the cumbersome but essential administrative tasks that a simulation program must perform. There are also numerical routines and basic analysis programs. A couple of complete, full-working simulation programs are also distributed. Although useful in themselves (they have actually been used in research projects), they are mainly intended as examples of the use of the libraries. The aim of the glsim project is not to provide a full-featured simulation program using technique X, but to enable researchers to more easily produce working simulation programs, by freeing them of the need to write code for the housekeeping part of the simulation. INSTALLATION ------------ See the file INSTALL for detailed instructions. Basically, after unpacking you must run ./configure.sh make sudo make install As of version 0.3alpha, you do not need noweb to build the library. Note however that the official sources are the .nw files, the .cc and other sources are only distributed for convenience. If you contact the maintainers with comments/questions/patches about the source, you must refer to the .nw files. DOCUMENTATION ------------- glsim is written under the literate progamming paradigm. All documentation is written and generated together with the source code and libraries by running the commands above. If you have LaTeX/BiBTeX installed, make will build the file doc/glsim.dvi, which contains the full documentation and source code. If you decide to make a hardcopy, be advised that it is a *long* document.
