This document describes how to get the timedreb2erl tool up and running.

Follow the rest of this document in order to produce an executable file.

All commands should be executed from the project root, i.e. the directory this README file lies in.

• GHC >= 6.12
• cabal >= 1.8
• McErlang

McErlang is required to be able to simulate the generated Erlang code.

cabal install

And now we have a fresh binary timedreb2erl in our cabal bin directory.

Given a timed rebeca model, we can generate Erlang source code for the model such that we can simulate it with McErlang.

timedreb2erl [OPTIONS] FILE

Common flags:
  -s --simulate        
  -m --monitor         
  -r --rtfactor=INT    
  -o --outputdir=FOLDER
  -? --help              Display help message
  -V --version           Print version information

If no outputdir is specified the resulting Erlang code is printed to stdout.

The simulate flag outputs code that can be run with McErlang. If it is omitted, then refined Erlang code is outputted.

The rtfactor flag specifies what time units are in the generated code (in milliseconds). Default 1000.

The monitor flag has no effect unless outputdir is used.
