Download Exodus Source/Build Files

NB always use HTTPS not http for the subversion link below - just in case you need to commit any changes back up into the subversion repository.

GUI

  1. Create a folder called "exodus" F:\exodus
  2. Right exodus click and choose "SVN checkout"
  3. url of respository: HTTPS://exodusdb.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/

TUI

svn co HTTPS://exodusdb.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ c:\exodus

Configuring Exodus for Building

copy the config0.bat to config.bat and edit it to reflect your configuration

If you are only building x64 then you dont need to set the x32 variables

Build Using Visual Studio

The exodus_all.sln relies on environment variables to identify location of boost, postgresql. All the necessary environment variables are set in config.bat.

To open visual studio with all the right environment variables set you must run dev.bat which calls config.bat and then opens your solution

run dev.bat which sets up the environment and opens visual studio

  1. Select Configuration: Release or Debug
  2. Select Platform: x64 or Win32
  3. Build the solution
  4. Debug/Run the solution - should get an exodus/cmd command console
  5. type configexodus, testsort, edic etc.

Building Using Scripts or Command Line

make.bat
clean.bat

Packaging Exodus

pack.bat
