Root-dependent package template
While writing simple macros or python scripts can be an effective way to quickly
get started with ROOT, cases frequently arise where it would be most effective
to create a library of compiled functions or even a compiled executable. Here is
the setup of a template package for compiling ROOT-dependent C++ classes and applications.
First, determine which ROOT installation you will use.
On lxplus5 (i.e., slc5 operating system), set environment variables with values like these:
export ROOTSYS=/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/app/releases/ROOT/5.22.00d/i686-slc5-gcc43-dbg/root
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${ROOTSYS}/lib:/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/Python/2.5/i686-slc5-gcc43-opt/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
export PATH=${ROOTSYS}/bin:/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/Python/2.5/i686-slc5-gcc43-opt/bin:${PATH}
export PYTHONPATH=$ROOTSYS/lib
- Create a directory where you will run ROOT and
cdto it; this will be denoted \<workdir\> below.
