/my_wax_install
for example.
% cp wax_v21.tar /my_wax_install
% cd /my_wax_install
% tar xvf wax_v21.tar
% rm wax_v21.tar
The following sub-directories of /my_wax_install
will be created :
/my_wax_install/bin
Contains WAX helper application executables /my_wax_install/bsp_example
Contains an example sky coverage file and BSP file creation script (used by the example source code for scan coverage computation) /my_wax_install/docs
Contains full HTML documentation of the WAX source code and algorithms employed. /my_wax_install/htm
Contains source code for the IRSA HTM library. /my_wax_install/lib
Contains object files and libraries needed to link WAX executables. /my_wax_install/src
Contains the WAX source code /my_wax_install/template
Contains customizable template files useful for generation of a WAX executable. /my_wax_install/wax_example
Contains full source code for an example WAX executable which uses the WAX plug in interface to compute an average position, scan coverage, and HTM index for each generated group.
GNU_BIN_DIR
environment variable is set to the directory containing the gcc
and g++
executables (these are the GNU C and C++ compilers).
INFORMIXDIR
environment variable is set to the Informix installation directory (typically /usr/local/informix
).
% cd /my_wax_install
% install.sh
This will compile the IRSA HTM library and create executables for the WAX helper applications (described in detail here). At this point, a WAX executable can be created - for help on how to do this, continue with the Compiling and Running WAX page.
