PSRDADA_CPP
PSRDADA_CPP contains C++ wrappers for a subset for PSRDADA functionality (HDUs, read/write clients, etc.) and implements various CLI application (from and to disk r/w, buffer synchronisation, buffer splitting etc.). PSRDADA_CPP also provides an interface for (high-performance) processing pipelines and DADA buffers. A few examples exists in the submodules (e.g. gated_spectrometer).
Requirements
- psrdada
- boost 1.67 or later
- CMake 3.12 or later
- CUDA (optional, required to compile
.cuand.cuhsource)
Installation
Clone the repository and enter the root folder
git clone https://gitlab.mpcdf.mpg.de/mpifr-bdg/psrdada_cpp && cd psrdada_cpp
Prepare and build the entire project
cmake -S . -B <path-to-build> -DENABLE_CUDA=TRUE -DPSRDADA_INCLUDE_DIR=<path-to-psrdada-headers> && make -C <path-to-build>/
Custom CMake flags
All flags are passed to cmake with the CMake prefix -D<flagname>
| Flagname | Description | Values | Command |
|---|---|---|---|
ENABLE_CUDA |
Allows compilation with nvcc which is require to compile .cuh and .cu
|
ON (default), OFF
|
- |
BUILD_SUBMODULES |
Build submodules (excluding dadaflow). |
ON (default), OFF
|
- |
BUILD_DADAFLOW |
Builds the dadaflow submodule. |
OFF (default), ON
|
- |
ENABLE_TESTING |
Enables testing relying on googletest. If googletest is not found by cmake it gets pulled from remote. |
ON (default), OFF
|
make -C <path-to-build> test |
ENABLE_BENCHMARK |
Enables benchmarks relying on googlebenchmark. If googlebenchmark is not found by cmake it gets pulled from remote. Only has effect when BUILD_SUBMODULES is ON. |
OFF (default), ON
|
make -C <path-to-build> run_benchmark |
FORCE_DOWNLOAD |
Fetches the content of googlebenchmark and googletest from remote. Useful when an existing installation causes problems. |
OFF (default), ON
|
