git clone https://github.com/tkLayout/tkLayout.git
 cd tkLayout

You need a working version of root active (root and root-config should be in your path) and a few libraries are required:

• boost_filesystem
• boost_regex
• the root library set

If you are on lxplus you just have to run a bash shell and then

 source setup_slc6.sh

Compilation using make:

make

This will build the needed programs and put them in the ./bin directory.

Compilation using cmake (NEW):

mkdir build     (all object files, help files, libs, ... will be kept here)
cd build
cmake ..        (generate makefile)
make install    (or write make all + make install)
make doc        (generate Doxygen-based documentation in doc directory)

make uninstall  (if cleaning needed)
rm *            (clean all content in build directory & restart if needed)

This will build the needed programs, copy the executables into tkLayout/bin directory and create symlink in ${HOME}/bin directory.

If the make command runs properly you can install the program with the script

 make install

If this is the first time that you install tkLayout, a few questions will be asked and a configuration fle will be created in $HOME/.tkgeometry:

1. You will need to provide the destination directory for the www output of the program (proabably something like /afs/cern.ch/user/y/yourname/www/layouts) this directory needs to be writable by you and readable by the web server. The style files will be copied during the installation to that directory (for example /afs/cern.ch/user/y/yourname/www/layouts/style ). If the style files get changed during the development a new ./install.sh will be needed to get this propagated to the output. Alternatively, you can choose to make a symbolic link between the source directory style directory and the layout directory. This avoids the need of repeating the ./install.sh at every update of the style files but in order to do this the source directory should also be within the reach of the web server.
2. The set of momentum values to be used for the simulation
3. [...] t.b.d.

To get the latest development version (usually UNSTABLE) you simply type

git fetch
git chechout master
make
make install
