Complete rewrite of makemake
Posted: Tue Dec 13, 2011 7:44 pm
As you might have already noticed, I've heavily changed the makemake script in the 6.11.2 version of Abinit. It is now a modular and flexible Python script with a few command-line options (use the -h or --help option for documentation). Backward compatibility with the already-existing options has been preserved.
The new makemake is making use of the build-system information available in config/specs/*.conf to adapt automatically to the new developments, which was not possible with the former shell-script style. This situation had resulted in some discrepancies with the current status of the source tree too, due to the need (actually lack) of regular human intervention. I took the opportunity to fix a few design flaws as well.
One of the consequences of the new style is that the build-autotools-framework script has been removed. In order to obtain the same effects, you may now run the following instead:
or, more explicitely:
Another consequence is that the clean-source-tree script has been obsoleted and is scheduled for removal in Abinit 6.13, unless I receive supplications not to do so. To clean the source tree, you may now run instead:
or, more explicitely:
Should you wish to preserve the script-generated source files (Fortran interfaces, checking routines, info modules, ...), you may now run:
or:
Due to my sloppiness in rewriting the script, a few transient problems have appeared, in particular the generation of files in the wrong order and the ignoring of abilint failures.
All of them should have been fixed by now (pouillon/6.11.2-public/790). Disculpen las molestias.
In case the new script style is causing you some issues, please do not hesitate to let me know by replying to this post.
