You're reading an old version of this documentation. For the latest released version, please have a look at v4.4.0.

Build for OSX

Prerequisites

  • CMake (>= 3.12.0)

  • GCC >= 5.0 or Clang >= 3.4

  • Optional: MATLAB R2009a or greater

  • Optional: Git

Assumed directory structure:

<ROOT>
   |-libs
   |   |- sundials
   |   |- hdf5
   |   |- superlu
   |   |- suitesparse
   |-code
   |-cadet
   |-build

Note that the version numbers of the files and packages below are subject to change and will not always reflect the most recent version.

Also note that you have to use the same compiler for all packages. This is especially important if some of the packages are installed via a package manager such as Homebrew which uses the system compiler (Clang).

Build dependencies

HDF5

You can either build HDF5 yourself or rely on the hdf5 package of Homebrew.

Obtain HDF5 from Homebrew: * Open a terminal and execute brew install hdf5 * Homebrew has installed HDF5 to /usr/local

Build HDF5 yourself: * Download CMake-enabled source from https://www.hdfgroup.org/downloads/hdf5/source-code/ * Unzip and make sure that the directory path does not contain blank spaces * Open a terminal and change to the unzipped directory * Execute ctest -S HDF5config.cmake,BUILD_GENERATOR=Unix,INSTALLDIR="<ROOT>/Libs/hdf5" -C Release -V * Extract the created HDF5-1.10.0-patch1-Darwin.tar.gz file to <ROOT>/Libs/hdf5 such that you have <ROOT>/Libs/hdf5/lib

SUNDIALS

You can either build SUNDIALS yourself or rely on the sundials package of Homebrew. Note that a version <= 3.2.1 is required whereas the current version provided by Homebrew is >= 5.1.0.

Obtain SUNDIALS from Homebrew: * Open a terminal and execute brew install sundials * Homebrew has installed SUNDIALS to /usr/local

Build SUNDIALS yourself: * Download SUNDIALS source from http://computation.llnl.gov/projects/sundials/sundials-software * Unzip * Open a terminal and change to the parent directory of the unzipped directory * Create a new folder sundialsbuild and change to it * Execute cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="<ROOT>/Libs/sundials" -DEXAMPLES_ENABLE=OFF -DOPENMP_ENABLE=ON -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS=-fPIC -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ../sundials-3.2.1/ * Execute make install * Delete the folder sundialsbuild (e.g., execute rm -rf sundialsbuild in the parent directory of sundialsbuild)

LAPACK

You can either use the native LAPACK implementation provided by Mac OS X (vecLib, Accelerate) or install the freely available Intel MKL which is very fast and probably faster than Accelerate.

SuperLU

  • Download SuperLU source from https://github.com/xiaoyeli/superlu

  • Unzip

  • Open a terminal and change to the parent directory of the unzipped directory

  • Create a new folder superlubuild and change to it

  • Execute cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="<ROOT>/Libs/superlu" -Denable_complex=OFF -Denable_complex16=OFF -Denable_blaslib=OFF -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS=-fPIC -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ../SuperLU_5.2.1/

  • Execute make install

  • Delete the folder superlubuild (e.g., execute rm -rf superlubuild in the parent directory of superlubuild)

UMFPACK

  • Download SuiteSparse source from http://faculty.cse.tamu.edu/davis/suitesparse.html

  • Unzip

  • Open a terminal and change to the unzipped directory

  • Execute make install INSTALL="<ROOT>/Libs/suitesparse" CHOLMOD_CONFIG=-DNPARTITION or make install INSTALL="<ROOT>/Libs/suitesparse" CHOLMOD_CONFIG=-DNPARTITION AUTOCC=no CC=<COMPILER> CXX=<C++COMPILER> if you want to manually select the compiler

Build CADET

  • Download release of CADET or checkout from git

  • Place the source in <ROOT>/code and create the directory <ROOT>/build

  • Open a terminal and change to <ROOT>/build

  • If you have built HDF5 yourself, execute export HDF5_ROOT=<ROOT>/Libs/hdf5

  • If you have built SUNDIALS yourself, execute export SUNDIALS_ROOT=<ROOT>/Libs/sundials

  • Execute export SUPERLU_ROOT=<ROOT>/Libs/superlu

  • Execute export UMFPACK_ROOT=<ROOT>/Libs/suitesparse

  • If using MKL, execute export MKLROOT=/opt/intel/mkl

  • Using standard LAPACK: Execute cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="<ROOT>/cadet" ../code/

    Using MKL (sequential): Execute cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="<ROOT>/cadet" -DBLA_VENDOR=Intel10_64lp_seq ../code/

    Using MKL (parallel): Execute cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="<ROOT>/cadet" -DBLA_VENDOR=Intel10_64lp ../code/

  • Execute make

  • Execute make install
