Movie on installing roms (via svn) and making a project

#1 Unread post by hetland »

I recently made a movie for a student on how to download roms via svn and create a project. I would like to say it is 'little' but it is 28 min and 200 megs... but perhaps you might still find it useful:

The movie is great. Good job :!:

I have few comments:
  • There is not need to copy the makefile to the Projects/upwelling directory since at the bottom of the build.bash script we cd to the ROMS source directory to execute make from there. The problem that you had in the movie is that you forgot to save the edited build.bash file.
  • There are several analytical expressions templates in the Users/Functionals directory that also can be used to customize your application.
  • Need to make sure that MY_HEADER_DIR environmental variable in build.bash is defined to use your private copy of ana_smflux.h

There is also extensive information about the makefile and a lot of useful documentation in WikiROMS:

https://www.myroms.org/wiki

We very frequently get a lot of questions for which we have a lot of documentation. I encourage new users to examine such information.

Hi,
When I click on the movie link, it is not there. Can anybody again send me that movie?

Thanks in advance.

With best regards,

Indeed it is not there. At all. I checked...

This is a bit embarrassing, but I hope that somebody downloaded a copy and can send it back to me again. Or, better, put it on the myroms website.

However, in the worst case, I will redo the movie. The first was done in one take, and (as you can see by Hernan's comments) I made some misstatements.

I can make another, better, improved version without too much trouble, and probably should for posterity...

You can also download the move from the link below.

You may use this movie for any purpose you see fit as long as a) Rob Hetland is cited, and b) it is non-profit.
