$Id$ AliRoot ------- ########################### Release version 3.02 ########################## Last update Tue Nov 9 08:26:53 CET 1999 - Federico Carminati This is the Version 3.02 of the ALICE simulation and reconstruction software. It is intended to offer a general purpose framework for ALICE simulation and reconstruction. The program should not be considered complete, and we are relying on the feed-back from users to correct bugs and provide improvements. The simulation program is based on GEANT3.21. A special version of the GEANT library and a mini-CERN Library are included in the distribution. Up-to-date information on installation and use of this code can be found at http://www.cern.ch/alice/Projects/offline. This README is a very condensed summary of the information contained there. Installation ------------ - Install ROOT and define the ROOTSYS symbol correctly. - Decide in which directory you will install the ALICE sofware. We will indicate it with - Define the following global variables in the login script ALICE = ALICE_LEVEL = pro ALICE_ROOT = $ALICE/$ALICE_LEVEL ALICE_TARGET = `uname` LD_LIBRARY_PATH = $ALICE_ROOT/lib/tgt_${ALICE_TARGET}\:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH (on all systems) SHLIB_PATH = $ALICE_ROOT/lib/tgt_${ALICE_TARGET}\:$SHLIB_PATH (on hpux) PATH = $PATH\:$ALICE_ROOT/bin/tgt_${ALICE_TARGET} At this point you should logout, login again and check that the symbols are set correctly EITHER ====== - Get the file /afs/cern.ch/alice/offline/dist/AliOffline3.02.tar.gz or the file ftp://pcepaip01.cern.ch/pub/AliOffline3.02.tar.gz - Unpack it with $ cd $ALICE $ gtar xvfz AliOffline3.02pre.tar.gz OR == - Get the files /afs/cern.ch/alice/offline/dist/AliRoot3.02.tar.gz (AliRoot code) /afs/cern.ch/alice/offline/dist/AliLibs3.02.tar.gz (minicern code) or the files ftp://pcepaip01.cern.ch/pub/AliRoot3.02.tar.gz (AliRoot code) ftp://pcepaip01.cern.ch/pub/AliLibs3.02.tar.gz (minicern code) THEN PROCEED WITH ================= - install the CERN library part $ cd $ALICE_ROOT $ gmake cernlibs - Install the ALICE specific software $ cd $ALICE_ROOT $ gmake - Copy the file $ALICE_ROOT/.rootrc to your home directory - run the code $ aliroot root [1] .x menu.C
