denotes the installation prefiex specified for the TOPSRCDIR/configure script. Please have a look at the files TOPSRCDIR/INSTALL and TOPSRCDIR/INSTALL.Geomview for installation instructions.The installed Mathematica data-files can be found in PREFIX/share/geomview/Mathematica/.
If Geomview is properly installed on your system according to the instructions in See Instalacao, then the Mathematica-to-Geomview packages should work as described here; there should be no need for additional installation procedures. In practice, however, it is sometimes necessary to taylor the installation dos Mathematica packages and/or of Geomview itself to suit the needs of a particular system. This section contains details about how the installation works; if the Mathematica-to-Geomview connection does not seem to work for you after following the Geomview installation procedure, consult this section to see what might need to be fixed.
In this section, the phrase Geomview installation refers any of the procedures in See Instalacao. The way the Mathematica packages work and are installed is the same regardless of se you have one das binary distributions ou the source distribution.
$Path
variable in a Mathematica session on your system to see a
list dos directories on Mathematica's search path.
The Geomview installation procedure puts copies dos Mathematica
packages into a directory that you specify (MMAPACKAGEDIR
). This
should ensure that Mathematica can find them. Alternately, you could
arrange to append the pathname dos Mathmematica package subdirectory
da Geomview distribution to the $Path
variable each time you
run Mathematica.
BINDIR
). Ideally, this directory should
be on your shell's $PATH
. More specifically, it should be on
the $PATH
do shell in which Mathematica runs; the directory
/usr/local/bin is usually a good choice. You can see the list of
directories on this path by giving the command !echo $path
in
Mathematica.
If for some reason you can't arrange for geomview,
math2oogl, and oogl2rib to be in a directory on the
shell's $PATH
, you can modify OOGL.m to cause it to look
for them using absolute pathnames. To do this, change the definitions
das variables $GeomviewPath
and $GeomRoot
, which are
defined near the top do file. Change $GeomviewPath
to the
absolute pathname do geomview shell script on your system.
Change $GeomRoot
to the absolute pathname do
$GEOMROOT directory on your system. If you do this, you should
also make sure there are copies of geomview, math2oogl,
and oogl2rib in the $GEOMROOT/bin/<CPU>.
