Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around issues encountered while installing and compiling the FRENSIE code, focusing on the configuration process using CMake and the associated scripts. Participants share errors and troubleshooting steps related to the build instructions and script usage.

Discussion Character

  • Technical explanation
  • Debate/contested
  • Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant reports an error during the CMake configuration process, indicating unknown arguments related to Boost support.
  • Another participant insists that users should not run CMake directly but instead use the provided frensie.sh script to configure the build.
  • A participant attempts to run the frensie.sh script but encounters a warning about missing source and binary directories, leading to a CMake error regarding the absence of CMakeLists.txt in the build directory.
  • Some participants reference specific build instructions that require editing variables in the frensie.sh script to reflect system paths, questioning how to properly make these changes.
  • Further clarification is provided on which variables in the script may need to be edited, with a note that not all are required.
  • A participant reports a new error when running the frensie.sh script, indicating that the project cannot be installed in the source directory, referencing a specific CMake error message.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree that the frensie.sh script should be used for configuration, but there is uncertainty regarding the correct setup of the script's variables and the implications of the errors encountered. Multiple competing views on how to resolve the issues remain, and the discussion is unresolved.

Contextual Notes

Participants mention specific build instructions and the need to modify script variables, but there is no consensus on the correct values or methods for these modifications. The discussion includes references to potential future changes in CMake behavior regarding directory assumptions.

You are not supposed to run cmake yourself!, you are supposed to copy and run the script frensie.sh to configure. That runs cmake. It's in the folder scripts, but follow the build instructions.

I did the same, it gave an error
emil@DESKTOP-:~/FRENSIE-pub/build$ l
frensie.sh*
emil@DESKTOP-:~/FRENSIE-pub/build$ ./frensie.sh
cmake version 3.22.1

CMake suite maintained and supported by Kitware (kitware.com/cmake).
CMake Warning:
No source or binary directory provided. Both will be assumed to be the
same as the current working directory, but note that this warning will
become a fatal error in future CMake releases.CMake Error: The source directory "/home/emil/FRENSIE-pub/build" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt.
Specify --help for usage, or press the help button on the CMake GUI.
 
Did you do build instruction 5,
"change the variables in the script to reflect the desired system paths (if the basic build instructions where use for a package the PACKAGE_PREFIX variable can be left blank in the script)."

How should I change the variables in that file? Is it in the CmakeList.txt file?

Edit this section in the script,
Code: 
HDF5_PREFIX_PATH=
MOAB_PREFIX_PATH=
DAGMC_PREFIX_PATH=
BOOST_PREFIX_PATH=
MPI_PREFIX_PATH=
ROOT_PREFIX_PATH=
SWIG_PREFIX_PATH=
DOXYGEN_PREFIX_PATH=
FRENSIE_SRC=
FRENSIE_INSTALL=
XSDIR_PATH=

Not everything is required.
