• ecfFlow consists of two tar files i.e. :  
  

  • boost_1_53_0.tar.gz

  •  ecFlow-4.0.8-Source.tar.gz

    Create a directory for the build:

    Code Block
    language bash
    mkdir /tmp/ecflow_build

• Copy the the two tar file into this directory, then change directory to /tmp/ecflow_build

• Un-zip then un-tar the two file files:

  Code Block
  language bash
  gunzip boost_1_53_0.tar.gz gunzip ecFlow-4.0.8-Source.tar.gz tar -xf -zxf boost_1_53_0.tar.gz tar -xfzxf ecFlow-4.0.8-Source.tar.gz

• You should have two directories created:

  Code Block
  boost_1_53_0 ecFlow-4.0.8-Source

• Create two environment variables. These are used by some of scripts:

   

  Code Block
  language bash
  export WK=/tmp/ecflow_build/ecFlow-4.0.8-Source export BOOST_ROOT=/tmp/ecflow_build/boost_1_53_0

...

cd $WK
mkdir build; cd build;

# Go with defaults
cmake .. 

# Override install prefix, build the most optimised executables , do not build the gui.
# cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/apps/ecflow -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DENABLE_GUI=OFF

# If you do not need the python api, use:
# cmake .. -DENABLE_PYTHON=OFF

# You can use make -j<n> to speed up the build, where n is the number of cores
make
make install

To use the ecFlow Python Api , you need to add/change PYTHONPATH .
