• Perl 5, which should be found with "/usr/bin/env perl".
• ROOT 5.10 to 5.18 : the user can specify $ROOTSYS to any ROOT release, and it will be used as is by the skimmer, but the only really validated releases are 5.10/00, 5.14/00g, 5.16/00 and 5.18/00.
  At compilation installation time, it also depends on gmake.

Installation

Check out

When one wants a given <release> of the skimmer, he must check out the package "DataServer" with the tag <release> from the GLAST CVS repository. Then he just needs to make "bin/skimmer" a reachable executable. For example, if one stores all the release under a single <SKIMMER_DIR> directory :

prompt> export CVSROOT=:ext:<user>@centaurusa.slac.stanford.edu:/nfs/slac/g/glast/ground/cvs
prompt> cd <SKIMMER_DIR>
prompt> cvs co -r <release> -d <release> DataServer
prompt>

Compile

Configure shell environment

At last, the administrator should make the main access routine "bin/skimmer" a reachable executable. For example, if one stores all the release under a single <SKIMMER_DIR> directory, he can add a software link to "bin/skimmer" in one of the standard directiry declared in $PATH, or extend the definition of $PATH in the site setup files :

sh> export PATH=<SKIMMER_DIR>/<release>/bin/skimmer:${PATH}
csh> setenv PATH <SKIMMER_DIR>/<release>/bin/skimmer:${PATH}
