mkdir build
cd build/
cmake ..
make -j4

make document

There are two possibilitys to execute CIMverter. First:

cd bin
./CIMverter --help

Second:

export CIMVERTER_HOME=your/path/to/build/bin/
./bin/CIMverter --help

To update the latest submodules enter the respective submodule directory pull the needed version:

2. git checkout master or git checkout release
3. git pull
4. git submodule update

To use CIMverter in Debug mode, change the build version to Debug:

cd build/
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..

We recommend using clion IDE with cmake build system:

• Makefile will not be used any more because arabica xml parser

If your project Folder has authority problems, change the owner of it:

sudo chown -R [your account username] CIMverter/

see line 133 in main.cpp

• Right click Project-> Properties-> Paths and Symbols -> Includes in GNU c++:

  • add GeneratedCode Path ../GeneratedCode and ../GeneratedCode/IEC61970
