A Parallel & Distributed Discrete Simulation Library

For a collection of Simulation Models that use this library, see warped-models.

WARPED is built with a C++11 compiler (see here for instructions about upgrading and switching GCC versions if you have an old version of GCC that does not support the required features.).

To build from the git repository, first clone a local copy.

git clone https://github.com/wilseypa/pdes.git $HOME/warped

You can run the Autotools build without any options, although specifying a prefix (install location) is recommended.

autoreconf -i && ./configure --prefix=$HOME/lib/warped && make && make install

To build from a source tarball, first download and extract the latest release from GitHub. cd into the directory you extracted the tarball to, and run the following command:

./configure --prefix=$HOME/lib/warped && make && make install

This will build and install the warped library to the path specified by the --prefix configuration option. If you omit the prefix, the library will be installed to /usr.

If you get a linker error telling you that the MPI library couldn't be found, you may need to specify the path to the MPI headers and libraries manually in the configuration step. You can specify the path to the library file with the --with-mpich configure option, and the header location with the --with-mpiheader option.

./configure --with-mpiheader=/usr/include/mpich --with-mpich=/usr/lib/mpich2

Replace the paths in the above example with the locations of the MPI libraries and headers on your machine.

By default, the output of make is very verbose. WARPED is configured to support silent build rules on Automake versions 1.10 and newer. To build with silent rules, pass the --enable-silent-rules flag to configure.

./configure --prefix=$HOME/lib/warped --enable-silent-rules

WARPED depends on an MPI implementation. It has only been tested with mpich, although other implementations may work.

If building from the git repository instead of a tarball, you will also need the GNU Autotools tool-chain, including Automake, Autoconf, and Libtool.
