[Radiance-general] compiling bsdf2rad help

[Guglielmetti, Robert]

P.S.
bsdf2rad is built automatically when you use the CMake build system, and is included in the installers we make at NREL. Package updates are LONG overdue, I know, but the current HEAD has all the changes to CMake to build and install bsdf2rad. I suppose another thing that's long overdue is a HOWTO on how to use the CMake build files in the Radiance cvs. :-/

Is there any trick to compiling/using bsdf2rad? I’ve compiled from the HEAD as recent as 3/18 and it did not get compiled and/or copied over.

I see that bsdf2rad is listed in the Rmakefile under ray/src/cv, but not included in the “PROGS” listing (the files above are). Does this need to get edited to properly install bsdf2rad?


What is the usage of bsdf2rad? I don’t see any man page online and didn’t find one with the typical documentation in the build.


Any help/suggestions are greatly appreciated.
