Description
Silo is a library for reading and writing a wide variety of scientific data to binary, disk files. The files Silo produces and the data within them can be easily shared and exchanged between wholly independently developed applications running on disparate computing platforms. Consequently, Silo facilitates the development of general purpose tools for processing scientific data. One of the more popular tools that process Silo data files is the VisIt visualization tool.
Usage: include $(HPC_SILO_DIR)/include in your makefile, then compile $(CC) -c yourfile.c and link with $(CLINKER) -o yourprog yourfile.o $(HPC_SILO_LIB). Template:App Location
Available versions
- 4.7
Running the application using modules
To use silo with the environment modules system at HPC the following commands are available:
Get module information for silo:
$module spider silo
Load the default application module:
$module load silo
The modulefile for this software adds the directory with executable files to the shell execution PATH and sets the following environment variables:
- HPC_SILO_DIR - directory where silo is located.
