DF DCTrackVisualizer Install and Run Instruction

These instruction are specifically for installing and running the DCTrackVisualizer program.

Install

• If you intend to work on the code, install NetBeans if you haven't already. See here for details.
• Move to or create you're preferred directory. I would suggest NetBeansProjects as a default.
• Clone the following Github repository:
  • friadavi/clas12-offline-software
  • git clone https://github.com/friadavi/clas12-offline-software.git
• Checkout the dcVisualizer branch
  • git checkout dcVisualizer
• Execute build-coatjava.sh
  • I recommend appending --nounittests and --nospotbugs so that the build doesn't take forever.
• The software should now be installed.

Running

Simply run <install directory>/clas12-offline-software/coatjava/bin/dctrackviz. Note that it may be necessary to use bash instead of ./ as the script may not source env.sh otherwise.

Install within Netbeans

To open the project in NetBeans:

• Open NetBeans
• Click on File > Open Project
• Go to the install directory
• Open the project clas-viz under clas12-offline-software > common-tools.
• Edit to your heart's delight.

Set the Main Class to JLab
*org.jlab.clas.viz.DcVisualizer

You may need to change the default run directory:

• In the projects pane, right click on clas-viz
• Click on properties
• Click on "Run" in the Categories pane
• Change the working directory to point to your clas12-offline-software directory.
