Simulator Distribution
Overview
The SimDist project integrates SLIC and its dependencies into one package.
Binaries
Binaries built with this system can be obtained from the distribution download area.
...
For instance, the file
| No Format |
|---|
slic-1_13_3-Linux-g++-bin.tar.gz |
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 "dist" additionally includes the complete set of libraries used to build the binary.
The process for installing a binary release for the aforementioned configuration is similar to this.

Downloading and installing from a dist file is the easiest way to get SLIC up and running.
Building from Scratch
The Simulator Distribution can also be obtained and built from scratch. You may need to do this if the dist binaries do not work or if you need to make various customizations, such as changing the default Geant4 version.
- First, checkout the project from the SLAC cvs.
No Format cvs -d :pserver:jeremy@cvs.freehep.org:/cvs/lcd co SimDist - Go into the directory.
No Format cd SimDist - Configure the project.
No Format ./configure - Now, build the SimDist.
No Format make
The binaries can be executed just as before.
