How to use Compile the Geant4 examples
Follow the commands on the use page to load the Geant4 environment.
In the following instructions we will compile the examples/basic/B5
example, but it could be any other
available in $G4INSTALL/source/examples/
. Replace -j4
with with -jN
where N is the number of cores you want to use for the compilation.
mkdir build_B5
cd build_B5
cmake $G4INSTALL/source/examples/basic/B5
make -j4
If you want to modify the example's code, we recommend to copy the example source directory somewhere
and replace $G4INSTALL/source/examples/basic/B5 with the path to your new source directory.
More details on the examples are available in the Geant4 Examples Doxygen Page.
