Version 1.00
Availability
Via Anonymous FTP
Version 1.00 of the ROOT Development Kit
(RDK) is available via anonymous ftp for the following platforms:
- Complete
source code (version 1.00/10)(for all
systems). However, no Makefile yet. We hope to include final sources
with autoconf functionality in the coming weeks. Unpack tar file
in your root directory where it will create the src directory.
- Linux
(3.7 MB).
You need to have a Motif run-time environment installed to be able to use
ROOT. The latest version (>=0.77) of LessTif,
a public domain clone of OSF/Motif 1.2, works (after installing LessTif's
libXm.so.0 create a link libXm.so.2 to it).
- HP-UX
9.x (5 MB).
In case you are running HP-UX 9.x and don't have the HP C++ compiler installed
you also should download the C++ runtime library libC.tar.gz
(61 KB). Unzip and untar before usage.
- HP-UX
10.20 with CC compiler (5 MB).
- HP-UX
10.20 with aCC compiler (5 MB).
- DEC/Alpha/Unix
with DEC/CXX (4.3 MB). This library has been compiled under Alpha/Unix
version 4.0. To use this library, you must have DEC C++ V5.5-004. Older
versions of CXX cannot be used.
- DEC/Alpha/Unix
with g++ (5.2 MB).
- AIX 4.1
(4.3 MB, works only on AIX 4.4).
- AIX 3.2
(4.1 MB, works on AIX3.2) Still version 0.9.
- Sun/Solaris
for Sun hardware (3.6 MB).
Binaries will work OK under Solaris5.4 or beyond. Note that with previous
versions of Solaris, the Motif libraries were not part of the system.
- Sun/Solaris
for Intel PCs (3 MB).
These binaries have been compiled under Solaris5.5.1.
- SGI
(4.8 MB).
These binaries have been compiled under IRIX5.3 (there are still some X/Motif
problems when opening multiple windows, we are working on the problem).
- Windows/NT:
all libraries and executables (4.0 MB) self extracting executable
modules only (2.0 MB). Use Winzip
to unpack and run setup.bat. The executable modules only in 1.4MB portions.
Download the 3 files disk1.bin,
disk2.bin and setup.bat,
then run setup.bat in the directory containing the .bin files. This version
has been built using Microsoft VisualC++. The X3D facility is missing
in the current version under Windows. The h2root utility requires
a Fortran DLL called MSFRT40.DLL.
In case you do not have this library already installed on your system,
you can ftp it.
- Windows/95:
all libraries and executables (4.0 MB) self extracting executable
modules only (2.0 MB). Use Winzip
to unpack and run setup.bat. The executable modules only in 1.4MB portions.
Download the 3 files disk1.bin,
disk2.bin and setup.bat,
then run setup.bat in the directory containing the .bin files. This version
has been built using Microsoft VisualC++. If you don't have yet
OpenGL installed take the file OGLFIX.EXE.
The X3D facility is missing in the current version under Windows. The h2root
utility requires a Fortran DLL called MSFRT40.DLL.
In case you do not have this library already installed on your system,
you can ftp it.
- MAC
MkLinux (3 MB).
The MkLinux (Linux for Mac) version misses h2root (will be available in
a week or so). You must have shared library support installed, the shared
library version of X11R6.3, as well as Lesstif 0.77 libraries (shared version)
This version of ROOT was only tested on MkLinux(7600/120) but should work
with LinuxPMac. If you have problems on installation, please contact D.
Buskulic buskulic@lapp.in2p3.fr
. If a monolithic (non shared) version is needed, we will try to send it
to you. No firm promises at this point, since the first attempt to port
ROOT without shared libraries failed.
To use the system, unzip and untar the file. For example:
$ gunzip root_v1.00.HP-UX.B.10.20.tar.gz
$ tar xvf root_v1.00.HP-UX.B.10.20.tar
This will create the directory root. Before getting started
read the file root/AA_README. Remember, you can find the
full documentation of the ROOT classes on this web site at the location
Classes and Members. The RDK also contains
all tutorials and a set of test programs.
