The C and Fortran compilers are chosen by CMake. (This can be overridden by setting the environment variables CC and FC to the preferred compiler). Further the variables CMAKE_C_FLAGS or CMAKE_Fortran_FLAGS can be used to set compiler flags for optimisation or debugging.

One nice and highly recommended feature of CMake is the ability to do out of source builds. In this way you can make all your ".o" files, various temporary depend files, and even the binary executables without cluttering up your source tree. To use out of source builds, first create a build directory, then change into your build directory and run cmake pointing it to the source directory.

Quick installation guide

Here is an example of a list of commands you could use to install ecCodes.  It is assumed “>” is the shell prompt. The version number may vary.

Code Block
> tar -xzf  eccodes-1.0.0.tar.gz
> mkdir build ; cd build 

> cmake ../eccodes-1.0.0 –DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/where/you/install/eccodes
...

> make
> make test
> make install
