Compiling and Running BlazeTest

By Shahrzad Shirzad

BlazeTest is a testing tool provided by Blaze. In order to compile and run BlazeTest with HPX backend, take the following steps:

1.  Change the Configfile at blaze/blazetest by filling in the CXX=, CXXFLAGS=, LIBRARY_DIRECTIVES= fields in the Configfile:
   This is an example of the configurations used for Clang:
   # Compiler selection
   CXX="clang++"
   # Special compiler flags
   CXXFLAGS="-O3 -march=native -std=c++17 -stdlib=libc++ -DNDEBUG -fpermissive -DBLAZE_USE_HPX_THREADS -isystem /hpx/install/path/include -Wl,-wrap=main"# Library settings (optional)
   # In some cases it might be necessary to specify additional library paths and add additional
   # libraries. This can be done via this setting.
   LIBRARY_DIRECTIVES="-L/hpx/install/path/lib/ -lhpx -rdynamic /hpx/install/path/lib/libhpx_init.a -ldl -lrt -lhpx_wrap - L/boost/install/path/lib -lboost_system -lboost_program_options"
2.  ./configure Configfile
3.  make essentials
4.  ./run
