Latest version of SVfit_standalone algorithm
The SVfitPerformanceStudies package has been tested with CMSSW 9_4_4. It depends on the following other packages: TauAnalysis/SVfitTF
In order to install the code, execute:
cmsrel CMSSW_9_4_4
cd CMSSW_9_4_4/src
cmsenv
git clone https://github.com/SVfit/ClassicSVfit TauAnalysis/ClassicSVfit -b release_2018Mar20
git clone https://github.com/SVfit/SVfitTF TauAnalysis/SVfitTF
cd $CMSSW_BASE/src
scram b -j 4
In case of compilation problems, please sutmitt an issue on https://github.com/SVfit/ClassicSVfit/issues
It is possible to build the software without CMSSW framework if the following prerequisites are satisfied (oldest software version the instructions were tested with):
- ROOT (6.10/3 or newer)
- GCC (6.3 or newer)
In order to build the software, please execute the following lines in any directory with write access:
git clone https://github.com/SVfit/ClassicSVfit TauAnalysis/ClassicSVfit
export LIBRARY_PATH=$LIBRARY_PATH:$PWD/TauAnalysis/ClassicSVfit/lib
make -f TauAnalysis/ClassicSVfit/Makefile -j4The test executables will be placed to $PWD/TauAnalysis/ClassicSVfit/exec. In order to use them:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$PWD/TauAnalysis/ClassicSVfit/lib
# either enter the full path to the executable, e.g.
./TauAnalysis/ClassicSVfit/exec/testClassicSVfit
# or make the executable available globally
export PATH=$PATH:$PWD/TauAnalysis/ClassicSVfit/exec
testClassicSVfit # run anywhereYou can add the export statements to your $HOME/.bashrc to make their effect permanent.
