This directory has a Makefile.lammps file with settings that allows
|
||
|
|
LAMMPS to dynamically link to the VMD molfile library. This is
|
||
|
|
required to use the USER-MOLFILE package and its interface to the dump
|
||
|
|
and write_dump commands in a LAMMPS input script.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
More information about the VMD molfile plugins can be found at
|
||
|
|
http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/vmd/plugins/molfile.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
More specifically, to be able to dynamically load and execute the
|
||
|
|
plugins from inside LAMMPS, you need to link with a system library
|
||
|
|
containing functions like dlopen(), dlsym() and so on for dynamic
|
||
|
|
linking of executable code into an executable. This library is
|
||
|
|
defined by setting the molfile_SYSLIB variable in the Makefile.lammps
|
||
|
|
file in this dir.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For Linux and most current unix-like operating systems, this can be
|
||
|
|
kept at the default setting of "-ldl" (on some platforms this library
|
||
|
|
is called "-ldld"). For compilation on Windows, a slightly different
|
||
|
|
mechanism is used that is part of the Windows programming environment
|
||
|
|
and this library is not needed.
|
||
|

See the header of Makefile.lammps for more info.
