Re: [Modules] Modules setup in cross-platform environments

[<ea...@at...>]

For each version of a different tool you have a separate
module file e.g.:

vendorA/v1.0
vendorA/v1.1
vendorA/v2.0
vendorB/r2002.01
vendorB/r2002.06

for vendorA and vendorB you can have a default version
pointed to by the file .version:

% ls -a <path>/modules/modulefiles/toolX
.            .version     v03.20.s004  v03.20.s007  
v3.30.s014
..           3.11.p001    v03.20.s005  v3.20.p1

% cat <path>/modules/modulefiles/toolX/.version
#%Module1.0##############################################
#######################
##
##
##
#
set ModulesVersion "3.11.p001"


% module load toolX
#### gives he default

% module load toolX/v03.20.s005
#### chooses version v03.20.s005


As far as OS dependencies...in the modulefile
add code like this...

set osname [ uname sysname ]

if {[ string compare $osname "SunOS" ] == 0} {
    set ncdir   /<path>/toolX
    set nctools tools.sun4v
} elseif {[ string compare $osname "Linux" ] == 0} {
    set ncdir /<path>/toolX-linux
    set nctools tools.lnx86
} else {
    # some kind of error!
    puts stderr "Error: This OS, $osname, is not 
supported with\
        [module-info specified]!"
}


I hope this helps...
Sorry if things wrap funny...
