This is a reboot of the CSim project which aims to better support the use of CellML models in SED-ML tools and OpenCMISS. Please consider this very much a work in progress.
The initial aim is to separate the generation of an executable model from the actual numerical method being used to integrate the model, and borrows heavily from code written for OpenCMISS (https://github.com/opencmiss/cellml) - which is now being migrated to use CSim instead.
A library to help application developers execute CellML models. See http://get.readthedocs.org/en/latest/csim/index.html
The following is a list of requirements required for building on all platforms
- Toolchain (Visual Studio, GNU/GCC, Clang)
- Git distributed version control system
- CMake version 3.3 or greater
- Python, including development header files
CSim uses a super build system to build all requirements and CSim itself. This is a two stage process, first the requirements are configured and built and second CSim is configured and built.
For all systems first acquire the CSim source code:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/nickerso/csim [here]
then create a sibling directory to the source where all the building of CSim will take place:
mkdir build cd build
See the platform specific section for the configuration and build phase of CSim. The default build of CSim is a release build use the CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE variable to configure the build type for CSim's requirements and CSIM_BUILD_TYPE to configure the build type for CSim itself. This of course is only relevant to single configuration builds like ninja and make.
When choosing to use the Ninja generator on Windows make sure you set the environment correctly using the vcvarsall.bat script, for example to set a 64 bit build for Visual Studio 2015 in a cmd window:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat" x64
Configure the requirements build (or phase 1):
cmake -G Ninja ..\csim
start the requirements build:
cmake --build .
(Don't forget the fullstop at the end of the command above it is important.)
Next configure CSim:
cmake -G Ninja -DUSE_SUPERBUILD=FALSE -DCSIM_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<absoulte-path-to-build-directory>/local/cmake -DBUILD_TESTING=TRUE ..\csim
start the build:
cmake --build .
To check the build run the tests with the following command:
ctest
Follow these instructions for building 64 bit CSim from the command line using Visual Studio.
Configure the requirements build:
cmake -G"Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64" ..\csim
start the requirements build:
cmake --build . --config Release
Next configure CSim:
cmake -G"Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64" -DUSE_SUPERBUILD=FALSE -DCSIM_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<absoulte-path-to-build-directory>/local/cmake -DBUILD_TESTING=TRUE ..\csim
start the build:
cmake --build . --config Release
To check the build run the tests with the following command:
ctest
It is also possible to build CSim from the Visual Studio solution in the build directory.
