10 4. HexoticPLUGIN plugin usage
16 The information in this file assumes that:
18 * The SALOME platform is installed to the directory <salome>
19 * The Hexotic product is installed to the directory <salome>/Hexotic
25 2.1. Unpack HexoticPLUGIN module sources
28 tar zxf HexoticPLUGIN_SRC.tgz
30 2.2. Build HexoticPLUGIN module
38 * cmake build procedure
40 mkdir HexoticPLUGIN_BUILD
41 cd HexoticPLUGIN_BUILD
42 cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=<Mode> -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<HexoticPLUGIN_INSTALL> ../HexoticPLUGIN_SRC
44 ,where <Mode> is build mode (Release or Debug),
45 <HexoticPLUGIN_INSTALL> is a destination folder to install
