General Information

Build Scripts: A Version Management System for GlueX describes a standard directory structure for GlueX software, how to create complete or partial builds, and how to specify versions of individual packages, both for building and for use. It is also available as GlueX Note 2793.

See below for other helpful links.

Shell Environment Set-Up

Building GlueX Software

GlueX and Containers

Software Documentation

Packages used in the GlueX software stack with links to package-specific documentation.

GlueX Software

Documentation for software packages specific to GlueX or to JLab.

  • A brief overview of the GlueX-specific software can be found here
  • Best practices in writing code for the HallD/GlueX software environment check out this link of HallD/GlueX Coding Conventions
  • A convenient way to enhance the impact of comments inside the code is to use Doxygen. The hooks and infrastructures are already implemented for the packages halld_recon and halld_sim.
