Install MM-PIHM on Windows using Visual Studio

Prerequisites

Compiling MM-PIHM on Windows requires CMake and Visual Studio. Compiling MM-PIHM requires CMake version higher than 3.1.3. For Visual Studio, please use Visual Studio 2017.

Install CVODE

1. In MM-PIHM/cvode directory, create two separate folders, builddir and instdir
2. Open a Visual Studio Command Prompt and cd to builddir
3. Run cmake-gui ../

   1. Hit Configure

   2. Uncheck BUILD_SHARED_LIBS and EXAMPLES_INSTALL

   3. Change CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to ../instdir

   4. Set other options as desired

   5. Hit Generate

      

4. Back in the VS Command Window
   1. Run msbuild ALL_BUILD.vcxproj
   2. Run msbuild INSTALL.vcxproj

The resulting libraries will be in the instdir. The sundials project can also now be opened in Visual Studio. Double click on the ALL_BUILD.vcxproj file to open the project. Build the whole solution to create the sundials libraries.

Install MM-PIHM

Note: the following procedures have been tested using Visual Studio 2017. Visual Studio 2019, however, will report errors using the following instruction.

1. Open Visual Studio and create a new Console App project. Choose a project name as you desire

2. Add corresponding source files

3. In Configuration properties->C/C++/General, add additional include directories src/include; cvode/instdir/include

   

4. In Configuration properties->C/C++/Preprocessor, add preprocessor definition _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS, and other preprocessor definition (e.g., _NOAH_ for Flux-PIHM, etc.). Note that you may need to remove some files unrelated to your module from your workspace. For example, you will need to remove RT and BGC source files if you only want to compile Flux-PIHM.

   

5. In Linker->Input, add additional dependencies XXX\MM-PIHM\cvode\instdir\lib\sundials_cvode.lib and XXX\MM-PIHM\cvode\instdir\lib\sundials_nvecserial.lib

   

6. Build your project
