To use the artdaq_mfextensions package, follow the following steps:

  1. Install the artdaq-demo using the instructions here
  2. Checkout the feature/mfextensions-demo branch of artdaq-demo:
      cd artdaq-demo
  git checkout feature/mfextensions-demo
  cd ..
  source setupARTDAQDEMO
  buildtool
  3. Clone the mf-extensions-git repository into your artdaq-demo-base directory and build the package:
      git clone http://cdcvs.fnal.gov/projects/mf-extensions-git artdaq-mfextensions
  mkdir build_mfextensions
  source setupARTDAQDEMO
  cd ../build_mfextensions
  source ../artdaq-mfextensions/ups/setup_for_development -p
  buildtool -ciI ../products
  4. Run the demo system, following the instructions here

After running start2x2x2System.sh, the ARTDAQ Message Viewer window should appear. Make sure that port 30000 is open in your firewall (if you have one), and when you run the manage2x2x2System.sh commands, messages should appear in the viewer window.

19-Aug-2015, KAB - a couple of notes
  • Version 1.0.1 uses an updated version of Qt (v5_4_2). This fixes problems in using system Qt files rather than ones in the UPS product.
  • On some SLF systems, we may need to 'yum install mesa-libGL-devel' to get the GL/gl.h header file in order to build artdaq-mfextensions.
