Building Pythia on BlueGene/Q
Part 1: Build HepMC Library
- Check out HepMC from SVN:
svn co svn+ssh://username@atlas1.hep.anl.gov/users/svn/hpc/tools/HepMC-2.06.08 <destination_path>
- Inside the HepMC folder run
./bgq-make.sh
Part 2: Build Pythia Library
- Check out Pythia from SVN:
svn co svn+ssh://username@atlas1.hep.anl.gov/users/svn/hpc/generators/pythia/v8180/bgq/trunk <destination_path>
- Inside the Pythia folder run
./bgq-make.sh
Part 3: Build Pythia Executable
- Check out TCLAP from SVN:
svn co svn+ssh://username@atlas1.hep.anl.gov/users/svn/hpc/tools/tclap-1.2.1 <destination_path>
- Check out Pythia user code from SVN:
svn co svn+ssh://username@atlas1.hep.anl.gov/users/svn/hpc/generators/pythia/usercode <destination_path>
- Inside the
usercodefolder you will find different programs written to use Pythia. As of this writting there was only one:alpToHepmc/runPythiaOnAlpgen.cppwhich can be used to shower Alpgen events and output HepMC format- There is a
Makefilewhich can be used to make an executable, be sure to edit the paths inside theMakefileto point to the HepMC/Pythia/TCLAP installations
