Installation

The installation is started by

  cd <my esys dir>
  scons dodebug=no

By default the configuration for Linux is used. If there is a file scons/<hostname>_options.py where is hostname is the name of the machine the installation is running (non-literal or non-numerical charcters are replaed by underscore) options is this file are overwrite the default setting. Use =scons/ess_options.py= as a staring point to create a file for your machine. If you want to use personalied setting in the file myoptions.py you can run

  cd <my esys dir>
  scons dodebug=no options_file=myoptions.py

You can also overwrite individual setting trough the command line. e.g.

   cd <my esys dir>
  scons dodebug=no libinstall=/usr/lib

will install the libraries into the directory /usr/lib.

Get help on options with the following command

  cd <my esys dir>
  scons -h

To uninstall the installation use

  cd <my esys dir>
  scons -c

If you have more than one processor available for compilation you can use the -j option to tell scons to do parallel compiles:

   cd <my esys dir>
   scons dodebug=no -j 8
