Installation

The source code is compiled using the provided Makefile in the source directory. The package has been tested under Linux with the Intel Fortran compiler.

Required Libraries

To compile and run SHARP Pack, the following external libraries must be installed: BLAS, LAPACK, and FFTW3.

Compilation Steps

  • Clone the SHARP Pack 2.0 source code from the GitHub repository:

    $ git clone https://github.com/fashakib/SHARP_pack_2.git

  • Once the package has been downloaded, navigate to the directory containing the source codes:

    $ cd SHARP_pack_2/source

  • Open the Makefile and update the library paths to point to your installed libraries. For example, edit the lines:

    LIBPATH = -L/path/to/blas \
        -L/path/to/lapack \
        -L/path/to/fftw3

    Note

    Make sure to replace /path/to/... with the correct installation paths on your system.

  • Compile the code by running:

    $ make

  • Upon successful compilation, the bin/ directory will contain the main executable, sharp.x, and the auxiliary executables, average.x, and average2db.x. To verify, run:

    $ ls ../bin/sharp.x

  • Add the bin directory to your PATH for convenience:

    export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/SHARP_pack_2/bin

Now the SHARP Pack is ready to run RPSH simulations.
