Downloading and Installing HPF-Builder

HPF-Builder sources are available for download. You may also get the binaries for Solaris or Linux.

The different versions

The available packages are those of current last version:

Past:

1.2: Visu only version

1.3: 1.2 + editable variable values

1.4: 1.3 + Edition of directives

Present:

1.5: 1.4 + Insertion/deletion of directives

= code freeze.

Future:

1.5.x: waiting for your comments and ideas

Organization of the code

HFP Builder needs some tools to be compiled or executed. Here is a small graph of its components:

Fortran grammar Cocktail Fortran parser		GUI code	Tix Tcl/Tk extensions Extended wish
		HPF Builder

Distributions

To obtain HPF Builder, you can proceed by one of the following ways:

Get the binaries

If you have a Intel Linux computer, you can get the default binary version.

In this case, you need the Fortran parser (one binary and a dynamic library), the extended Tcl shell (one binary, some dynamic libraries and tcl files), and the Tcl sources of the GUI.

Binaries are available for Linux and Solaris. For another architecture, mail me.

Get the sources

If you use another architecture you can get the C sources to compile them. Every Unix environment should work. You just need make (gnu make seems better) and gcc (or cc). In this case, you always must have the GUI tcl codes, but you need also the sources for tcl and its extensions and for the parser.

For the parser:

• if it's just to compile them, you can use directly the automaticaly generated C codes,
• if you want to look how it works, the Cocktail sources are a better choice. In this case, you also need Cocktail compilers.

All of these parts of code are available in the following packages:

• pb: Parser Binaries
• pc: Parser C codes
• ps: Parser Cocktail Sources
• cl: cocktail includes and libraries
• cb: cocktail compilers binaries
• cs: sources of reuse lib and tools about cocktail(*)
• tb: tcl binaries and libraries
• eb: extensions binaries and libraries
• es: extensions sources
• hb: GUI codes
• hs: GUI Tcl sources
• cf: config files and examples

You don't need all of the packages. Here is a graph of the dependences between them:

You need the right hand side packages (drawn with thicker borders). You can directly get them, or obtain their content by compiling some other ones, as indicated in the graph.

About the packages *b, they are linux binaries versions. For another architecture version, see below.

Installation

The resulting directory hierarchy is approximatly as following:

Directories				Packages		Bin	Src
tools	bin			cb			x
	lib				cl	x
	include
	src			cs			x
tcl	bin			tb		x
	lib
	include			ts			x
	src	tkdash
hpfb	src	extwish
		tklayout
		misc			ps	x
		parser	ctch	pc			x
			ch
			prg
			ct
		tcl		hs			x
	lib	links			hb	x
		tcl
		Extwish lib		tb'		x
		Fortran lib		pb		x
	bin
	etc			cf		x	x
	examples

All you need is to run install script in the main directory. Once the installation is completed, the HPF-Builder program is ready. Just run hpfb/bin/Hpfb script to start it.

If you already have tcl8.0, tk8.0 and/or tix4.1 installed, you can specify their pathes during installation.

ATTENTION

About the parser sources, I use standard Cocktail compilers and two tools. I wrote whose sources are in package cs. The other Cocktail sources, doc and other architectures binaries can be found at the Cocktail home page.

About Extended Wish, I use standard Tcl/Tk and Tix, and some of my own extensions. Tcl/Tk can be found at the Tcl/Tk home page, and Tix at the Tix home page.
