AriaCoda is intended to be used on any standard Linux or Windows 7 or 10 system with standard system libraries and common developer tools only.
On Linux, the GNU C++ compiler (g++/gcc), GNU Make, and standard shell
tools are required. On Ubuntu or Debian Linux, run
sudo apt install make g++ to install.
On Windows, Visual C++ 2019 will be required (project files are still being updated and created). The free "Community" edition can be downloaded from http://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads. (Only the C++ compiler and Windows SDK are required, no additional Visual Studio components are needed.)
In addition, some optional feaures have additional requirements.
- Doxygen, for API reference documentation generation
- SWIG, for interface generation for Python and Java interfaces
- Java and Python developmen libraries for Python and Java interfaces
- Matlab MEX compiler for Matlab interface
- Rust bindgen tool for Rust interface (and cargo)
- Debian packaging tools to create Debian packages
On Linux, enter the AriaCoda source directory in a terminal,
and run make.
On Windows, open AriaCoda.sln with Visual C++ and build the
solution.
TODO
API Reference Documentation, including some annotated examples and an in-depth introduction/overview, can be generated using the Doxygen tool.
To install Doxygen on Ubuntu or Debian Linux, run sudo apt install doxygen.
To generate the AriaCoda documentation on Linux, run make doc.
To install Doxygen on Windows, go to http://www.doxygen.nl/download.html, and use the download link under "A binary distribution for Windows...".
To generate the AriaCoda documentation on Windows, open a command prompt
terminal (choose "Run..." from Start menu ond enter cmd), enter the
AriaCoda source directory (e.g. cd %HOMEPAHT%\AriaCoda or similar), and run
Doxygen using the doxygen.conf configuration file by entering
C:\doxygen\bin\doxygen.exe doxygen.conf. (You can add C:\doxygen\bin
to your program PATH in the System control panel, if desired, to allow
you to directry run any program in C:\doxygen\bin directry from the command
prompt.)
Example programs can be found in the examples/ directory.
AriaCoda may be used with the AMRISim simulator, or MobileSim.
