Step-by-Step Installation GuidesYou can find below some useful pages collecting instructions on how to install Geant4 in a detailed step-by-steptutorial:• Step by step Installation Guides.6.1. Building on MS Visual C++Geant4 can be compiled with the C++ compiler of MS Visual Studio C++ and the Cygwin toolset. Detailedinstructions are given in the Installation manual. As the build system relies on make and other Unix tools usingonly the compiler of MS Visual Studio, the section onSection 5 Makefile and environment variables applies also for building with MS Visual C++.We do not support compilation directly under MS Visual Studio, i.e. we do not provide workspace files (.dsw)or project files (.dsp).However the executables created are debuggable using the debugger of MS Visual Studio. You may have to helpthe debugger finding the path to source files the first time you debug a given executable.Listed below are some useful pages with instructions on how to start with the installation of CygWin, and alsotips for creating a project under Visual Studio:• Getting started with Cygwin.• Cygwin Installation Notes.• Building a MSVC++ Visual Studio 2005 Geant4 project (setup no longer supported).7. Development and debug tools7.1. UNIXAlthough not in the scope of this user manual, in this appendix section we provide a set of references to ratherknown and established development tools and environments we think are useful for code development in C++ ingeneral. It's a rather limited list, far from being complete of course.• The KDevelop environment on Linux systems.• The GNU Data Display Debugger (DDD).• Valgrind , a system for debugging and profiling Linux programs.302
