SCIL is available on GitHub.
Detailed information how to install required software packages are provided in the directory:
- test/docker//Dockerfile The commands provided after the RUN instruction are those necessary to install prerequisites.
Once these are installed use, e.g., ./configure --prefix=$PWD/install Note that SCIL requires to be built out of tree, meaning one may not use "cmake ./" but instead call cmake from an empty directory.
When running configure, the system will automatically install additional requirements.
-
To adjust the CMAKE based environment to your system run
./configure [Options] -
Build the core library
cd build make -j 4 -
Install the core library
cd build make install -
Build the HDF5 wrapper
cd tools/hdf5-plugin/ ./configure [Options] make install -
You have to copy the HDF5 wrapper to the plugin install directory of HDF5!
- dev: contains tools for development
- deps: contains tools to automatically setup dependencies
- doc: contains some documentations (more when you run make)
- src: the source code of the core libraries provided, see below for details
- test-docker: contains scripts to setup a docker test environment for various distributions
- tools: additional tools using SCIL
The source directory is split into several components:
- compression: the compression library
- algo: all compression algorithms
- util: utilities for the individual algorithms
- algo: all compression algorithms
- core: core datatypes and functions that are accessible by users
- pattern: library for several synthetic patterns
- test: system-integration test code
- tools: command line tools
- util: utility functions for command line tools
- file-formats: file formats library for tools
- util: utility functions for command line tools
- util: supportive functions that may be used by any other library and function but usually NOT by end-users. Util shall not have any dependency to any external component except to core.
