Info: This outlines the necessary steps for compiling Takin from source. If you've already downloaded a binary package of Takin for your system, you can skip this section.
Install (developer versions of) all required libraries either from your system's package manager or directly from the given links: Boost, Qt 4 or 5, Qwt 6, Minuit 2, Clipper,
For example, on *buntu systems, use the following commands:
sudo su
apt-get install cmake clang build-essential libboost-all-dev libclipper-dev libqt4-dev qt4-dev-tools libqwt-dev python-dev libfreetype6-dev wget
wget http://www.cern.ch/mathlibs/sw/5_34_14/Minuit2/Minuit2-5.34.14.tar.gz
tar -xzvf Minuit2-5.34.14.tar.gz
cd Minuit2-5.34.14
./configure --disable-openmp
make && make install
exit
Set up other external dependencies:
cd <takin source dir>
./setup_externals.sh
Takin has to be compiled with a fully C++11 compliant compiler, e.g. GCC version 4.8 or above or Clang.
Make using CMake:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
optional: make install (as root)
Run Takin with takin
(if installed) or ./takin
(for local version).
In case tlibs is not found, use: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib takin
