Usage

Building

Linux

1. Follow the setup instructions so that git, java, clang, cmake (>= v3.0) and ANTLR are installed.
2. Make sure that ANTLR_INS and ANTLR_JAR are set in your environment
3. Make a directory that you intend to build the project in and change into that directory.
4. Run cmake <path-to-GeneratorBase>.
5. Run make.
6. Done.

Pulling in upstream changes

If there are updates to your assignment you can retrieve them using the instructions here.

1. Add the upstream as a remote using git remote add upstream <clone-link>.
2. Fetch updates from the upstream using git fetch upstream
3. Merge the updates into a local branch using git merge <local branch> upstream/<upstream branch>. Usually both branches are master.
4. Make sure that everything builds before committing to your personal master! It's much easier to try again if you can make a fresh clone without the merge!

Once the remote has been added, future updates are simply the fetch and merge steps.
