This program is for use with the ACT toolkit.

• Please install the ACT toolkit first; installation instructions are here.
• Also install the ACT standard library.
• Build this program using the standard ACT tool install instructions here.

To build, run ./configure and then make and make install.

There are a number of things to keep in mind when building actsim with Xyce.

Building Xyce:

• Replace the files N_CIR_Xyce.{C,h} (in src/CircuitPKG/) and N_CIR_XyceCInterface.{C,h} (in utils/XyceCInterface) with the modified files from xyce-bits/ (note: we've sent these to the Xyce authors and this should not be needed in the near future)
• Build and install Xyce itself, and also build and install the Xyce C interface library (in the utils/XyceCInterface directory)
• Preserve your cmake build directory for the next step. (We need one file from it as described below.)

Building actsim:

• When you run ./configure, it should detect that the Xyce C interface library exists.
• To use static linking for actsim, we need to extract the correct link-time options used by your Xyce build. To do so:
  • Run ./grab_xyce.sh <path> where <path> is the path to the cmake build directory for your Xyce build
  • Alternatively, you can copy the file src/CMakeFiles/Xyce.dir/link.txt from your cmake build directory for Xyce, place it it any directory, and run grab_xyce.sh with the path set to the directory containing link.txt
• After this, you can build actsim.
