UPA

Aquest és l'inici d'una aventura ...

Code structure

UPA is built using CMake, which makes it easier to keep track and compile huge programs. All the source code is placed in /src, and every folder contains a different library which can be compiled separately. This allows for fast re-compilation when only minor changes are implemented.

CMake project structure

Each library has its own CMakeLists.txt file, which gives compilation instructions for the specific library.

The global CMakeLists.txt file, located in the main folder, includes all libraries and takes care of the global compilation.

The src/Tests folder contains all the executable files, which are compiled separately and can contain all the different applications we want to have.

Install folders

When compiling and installing the code, /include and /libs contain the .h files and .a libraries respectively. The /bin folder contains the compiled executables (one for each file in /src/Tests). The /build folder contains all the compilation files generated by CMake.

Compilation

To compile UPA, move into /build on a terminal and do the following:

First, generate the compilation files using CMake :

cmake ..

Finally, compile the code :

make install
