Habitat Model Console

Habitat Model Console is a C++ tool created by North Arrow Research.

Usage

 Habitat Model Command Line
    usage: habitatmodel <root_project_path> <xml_input_file_path> <xml_output_file_path>

 Arguments:
       root_project_path: Absolute full path to existing project folder.
    xml_config_file_path: Absolute full path to existing xml config file.
    xml_output_file_path: Absolute full path to desired xml output file.

Prerequisites: Qt5, GDal > 1.10 and RasterManager

Qt5

You will need Qt5 but to do that you will need to add the ubuntu-sdk-team repo to your /etc/apt/sources.list

The quickest way to do all of this on Ubuntu is the following:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-sdk-team/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install qtdeclarative5-dev qt5-default

GDAl 1.10

Please make sure you have GDaL 1.10 or greater installed on your system.

RasterMan

In order to build this you need the RasterMan library alongside this one in a specific way:

<PROJECTROOT>/
<PROJECTROOT>/HabitatModel/habitatmodel      <-- This repo's root
<PROJECTROOT>/RasterManager/rastermanager/   <-- The rastermanager repo root

Compiling:

Once Qt5, GDaL and RasterManager are installed it should just be a matter of running the following:

qmake -r HabitatModelCPP.pro
make
sudo make install

Now you should have HabitatModel in your /usr/bin an the libModelCore.* files in /usr/lib

Debugging in OSX

In OSX you can specify your dependent libraries in the .pro file but for debugging and at runtime you will need to specify where all the dependencies live.

Do this by setting the DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable:

DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH=/Users/matt/Projects/nar/HabitatModel/build-HabitatModelCPP-Desktop_Qt_5_3_clang_64bit-Debug/ModelCore

This environment variable needs to specify the paths to the following compiled libraries:

• ModelCore
• RasterManager
• GCDCore

You can do this on the project settings in Qt under the run tab. Look for Run Environmentproject

Be sure to use different paths for debug and release libraries so you can debug things correctly.
