PerpleX-cpp

This repository contains a C++ wrapper for the thermodynamic code Perple_X (written in Fortran 77).

Prerequisites

• CMake version 2.8.12+

• A Fortran 2003 compatible Fortran compiler (e.g. gfortran)

• A C++ 2011 compatible C++ compiler (e.g. gcc)

Build instructions

An out of source build is recommended:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make -j<N>

Testing

Unit testing is done using CMake and GoogleTest (installed as part of main build). To run the tests just run ctest from the root build directory.

Perple_X data files

Two Perple_X data sets are provided in the repository, both modelling KLB-1 peridotite. The klb-1 data set was taken from here. The simple data set is practically the same but has been altered to reduce the complexity and run time.
