CLASS is part of a book (soon to be) published at Cambridge University Press: "Atmospheric boundary layer: Integrating chemistry and land interactions" by Jordi Vila-Guerau de Arellano, Chiel C. van Heerwaarden, Bart J.H. van Stratum and Kees van den Dries.
CLASS can be downloaded as precompiled binaries for Windows and OS X.
For information on compiling CLASS on Linux / OS X, see the notes below.
On recent versions of OS X, opening CLASS for the first time will result in a warning: "CLASS can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer". To circumvent this problem, right click the application and select "open" and again "open" in the dialog instead of double clicking the application. This step is only needed once.
Bugs can be reported at https://github.com/classmodel/modelgui/issues?state=open
In order to reproduce and fix the bug, we will most likely need:
- Information on the operating system you are using (Windows or OS X version, Linux distribution)
- The git-hash, shown in the 'about CLASS' window (e.g. git-hash: v1.0_beta2-6-g49b7603)
- A description of the exact steps needed to reproduce the problem.
The source code of CLASS can be downloaded manually from GitHub or (preferably) using GIT:
git clone https://github.com/classmodel/modelgui.git
Both methods will always provide you the most recent (stable) version of CLASS. There are two ways of compiling CLASS: using QtCreator or using the command line.
After installing QtCreator, open the CLASS project file (mlmodel_main.pro) in QtCreator and select "build" > "run". This should compile and start CLASS.
Without QtCreator installed, some additional packages are needed, e.g.
- Ubuntu (20.04 LTS) or Mint (21): g++ qt5-qmake qtbase5-dev
After installing the required packages, calling:
qmake
make
from the source directory of CLASS should compile the model.
In order to build the code on OS X without creating an Xcode project, call:
qmake -spec macx-g++
make
