Sorry again, Gerard. Are you not familiar with zip
(gzip
) or tar
?
For anyone following this thread, to send an app to us for diagnosing, it’s much easier if you can collect and test an app in a working directory, then zip
or gzip
or tar
the directory into one file. I’m not so familiar with (g)zip
, but I see you’re on Ubuntu, Gerard, so you must have access to the Unix “tape archive” application, tar
. man tar
to see the manual. To make a compressed tar file, change to the directory one above the app directory. Then
tar czf myApp.tgz myApp
where myAapp
is the name of the directory (whatever), and attach myApp.tgz
. On my side, all I have to do is download one file, myApp.tgz
, and “untar” it.
Geant4 developers are very willing to help, but we do need users to do some work to make it simpler for us. I appreciate your willingness, Gerard, to make a simple app for us to diagnose.
(This assumes the G4 Forum will accept tgz
files. I haven’t tried. If it doesn’t, please email it to john.allison@cern.ch
, with the file as an attachment.)
We’re getting there.
Note: the files should include your CMakeLists.txt
file too.
