Tudat Bundle

The Tudat bundle contains Tudat and a number of external libraries in a modular fashion. The TU Delft Astrodynamics Toolbox (Tudat) is a set of C++ software libraries for simulating various astrodynamics applications, for more info see the Tudat website.

Instructions

This document contains minimal information on how to build the Tudat bundle. For more information see documentation below.

Building the project

1. Clone the repository on your computer (or fork and then clone)

    git clone https://github.com/tudat/tudatBundle.git
   

2. Enter the new directory

    cd tudatBundle
   

3. Checkout all the submodules (optionally you can clone only the necessary submodules)

    git submodule update --init --recursive
   

4. Make a new build directory and enter

    mkdir build && cd build
   

5. Initiate CMake for the project

    cmake ../
   

6. Build the project

    make
   

Note: it can happen that due to dependencies between the submodules the make process quits with an error (after building SPICE or JSONCPP, for instance). In this case, please repeat steps 5 and 6 once or twice.

### Switching on/off libraries and applications

1. Edit CMakeLists.txt

2. Comment out or add new add_subdirectory lines. The argument of add_subdirectory should be the path containing the library's or application's CMakeLists.txt.

Creating your own applications

1. Copy the templateApplication from tudatExampleApplications to tudatApplications and give it your own name

    cp -R tudatExampleApplications/templateApplication tudatApplications/myApplication
   

2. Add your project to the central CMakeLists.txt, see intructions above.

3. Re-run cmake and make commands.
