Installing GENIELab

GENIELab exploits the GeodiseLab installer to provide a convenient means to deploy the software. Essentially, you just need to download the software archive, unzip and run the install scripts appropriate for your version of Matlab. The install script prompts the user for the location of Matlab in the file system and a directory into which the software can be installed. Please view the post-installation tasks once complete.

Downloads

Please download the latest version of GENIELab from the link provided in the Downloads section of the GENIELab page. The software archive contains releases of GENIELab that target specific versions of the Java Virtual Machine. As Matlab has developed over time it has upgraded the JVM that it uses. Consequently you must select the appropriate release of the software for your version of Matlab as described below.

Prerequisites

  • Java Runtime Environment
    • The installer uses the Java build tool ant. In order to install the software using ant you will need to have a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) available on your PATH. This is a common piece of software that is usually available by default on a Linux system. Under Windows you can install a JRE yourself if it is not already present. The JRE can be downloaded from the Sun Developer Network.
    • Alternatively, the JRE upon which Matlab executes can be used. Simply add the following Matlab directory to your PATH:
      • Linux
        • bash: export PATH=$PATH:<matlabroot>/sys/java/jre/glnx86/jre1.4.2/bin
        • tcsh: setenv PATH $PATH:<matlabroot>/sys/java/jre/glnx86/jre1.4.2/bin
      • Windows
        • Command prompt: set PATH=%PATH%;<matlabroot>\sys\java\jre\win32\jre1.4.2\bin

Installation

  1. Open a UNIX/Linux shell
  2. Unpack the distribution archive to a temporary location
  3. Navigate to the sub-directory appropriate for your version of Matlab

Starting GENIELab

To use the GENIELab Toolboxes it is necessary to start Matlab in the installation directory. Under Windows shortcuts to start Matlab with the GENIELab Toolboxes are provided in the installation directory, and upon the Windows desktop. From the Linux command-line it is necessary to navigate to the installation directory before starting Matlab.

Linux

E.g. Navigate to the installation directory and start Matlab

$ cd /home/user/GENIELab
$ matlab

Windows

A Windows shortcut should exist on the desktop and the deployment directory
