c5056b1

A reasonably stable candidate for the first release of Muview 2.0. Much has changed since previous versions but here are some of the highlights.

Changes Since 2.0b1

  • Fixed a few problems with color scales and sprites when displaying scalar fields
  • #1: libomf now compiled under qmake
  • #2: Migrated to OpenGL 3.1 profile for improved compatibility
  • Compiles on MacOSX under Qt 5.2 (still has problems with OpenGL context)
  • Added desktop file and icons for linux distribution

Requirements

  • Qt5 libs at run time
  • Boost and qt5 dev packages are required for building

Building

Linux

After installing the dependencies from repositories, run the following

cd libomf
qmake && make
cd ..
qmake && make
sudo make install

The install puts the muview binary in /usr/local/bin, as well as installing icons and a .desktop file on Ubuntu-like systems. This facilitates conveniences such as opening .omf and .ovf files by double clicking them!

Mac OSX

On 10.9 Mavericks, I was able to get a succesful build using libraries installed through brew. I did NOT have any luck with the official Qt5 environment.

brew install boost
brew install --developer qt5

The latter takes a while to compile (20 mins on an old system.) Now run the same command chain as above, where qmake is replaced by:

/usr/local/Cellar/qt5/5.2.1/bin/qmake -spec macx-g++

to ensure that you are using the boost version. This generates muview.app — which on my system runs but doesn't load a proper GL context and thus cannot actually display anything. Suggestions are welcome.

Windows

Please help me out if any of you are interested...
