Simulator Distribution
Overview
...
The SimDist CVS project provides a build system for these programs based on GNU Make and Autoconf. Users do not need to download and install each package manually (which can be a lengthy and tiresome process). SLIC can be built from scratch using the proto-typical "configure" and "make" commands, and it includes a run script for setting up the runtime dependencies (basically just the Xerces library) and launching the program.

Known Working Configurations
...
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, Scientific Linux 3: gcc 3.2, 3.4.3, 4.0, 4.1.1
Mac OSX: gcc 3.4 and 4.0
Windows (Cygwin only): gcc 3.3.3
...
Binaries built with this system can be obtained from the distribution download area.
These files The distributions are named according to the following scheme.
No Format |

slic-[version]-[platform]-[compiler]-[type].tar.gz |
For instance, the filethis file is a binary distribution of slic version 1.13.3 for Linux, compiled with g++.
No Format |

slic-1_13_3-Linux-g++-bin.tar.gz |
This binary is version 1.13.3 for Linux, compiled with g++. The type can be "bin" or "dist". The "bin" downloads contain only those files necessary to run the simulator while are binary distributions containing only the necessary runtime files for running the simulator, while the "dist" additionally includes files include the complete entire set of libraries and sources that were used to build the binary.
...
The process for installing a binary release for the aforementioned configuration is similar to this.
- Download Assuming that the tarball is called slic.tar.gz, download the tarball using (for instance) the wget program.
No Format wget http://www.lcsim.org/dist/slic/slic-1_13_3-Linux-g%2B%2B-bin.tar.gz
- Decompress it.
No Format tar -zxvf slic-1_13_3-Linux-g++-bin.tar.gz
- Go into the SimDist directory and run the simulator.
No Format cd SimDist ./scripts/slic.sh
