Using the NRLMOL repository

In order to obtain a copy of NRLMOL from the repository you must follow this instructions:

  1. In a teriminal window, position yourself where the code will be checked out from the repository (the directory that contains the code will be generated automatically).
  2. Enter the command:
    svn co svn+ssh://user@quantum.utep.edu:/home/user/svn/nrlmol
    Use the command:
    svn co svn+ssh://user@quantum.utep.edu:/home/user/svn/gui
    to get the NRLMOL gui
  3. Enter the password for user in quantum.utep.edu (It will ask for it twice).
  4. This should copy the latest code from the repository into a directory called nrlmol (or gui).
  5. You may now compile the code by calling:
    make
    (changes may be needed in the Makefile). Since this only checks out the source code, there's no need to initially call:
    make clean
  • Whenever changes in the code are done, the files in the repository modified, so you need to update your code, you do this by executing:
    svn update
    This updates your code to the lastest version in the repository.
  • If you want to see the change log for the code execute:
    svn log
  • To check the files you may have modified execute:
    svn status
    Which would confirm if you are using the same code as in the repository
  • You can also modify the source code and submit the canges to the repository by executing:
    svn commit -m"message"
    Where message is a text message of what changes you did (this will be kept in the change log).
    Get approval for the submission from Dr Zope or Dr. Baruah!
