BUILDING LROSE

CMAKE builds for scientific users

cmake works well on both LINUX and MAC OSX.

These are the recommended builds, if you just want working apps and cannot get the normal installs to work.

Target	Notes
lrose-core	Build lrose-core autonomously using cmake
lrose-core	Build lrose-core manually using cmake
fractl	Build fractl using cmake
vortrac	Build vortrac using cmake
samurai	Build samurai using cmake

Autoconf builds

If for some reason cmake does not work for lrose-core, you can try the autoconf build.

Also, autoconf is used for building CIDD, and NetCDF if required.

If the system install for NetCDF on your system does not work well, you can build it instead. It should be installed with the same prefix as you plan to use for the core.

Target	Notes
lrose-core	Build using autoconf
CIDD	Build CIDD in 32-bit emulation mode. LINUX only
NetCDF	Build HDF5 and NetCDF
