[ADD] SpectraST executable from TPP and README

[lukaszimmermann]

README contains description of the compilation specifications.

[hroest]

@jpfeuffer @cbielow is there a policy about having executables only for a single platform (e.g. Linux) or is that ok (for now)?

[cbielow]

Full coverage would be desirable, but having one is better than none I guess.

[hroest]

I agree, my view is lets start with Linux but eventually add the SpectraST executables for the other OS as well - I guess we could use the pre-compiled ones from the TPP distrubution?

[jpfeuffer]

Having only one platform is fine for now. We can disable the availability of the node e.g. in KNIME (on these platforms). Or include the node and require that the user finds/builds an executable himself and places it with the others. But yes, let's start with Linux.

[hroest]

so lets merge?

[lukaszimmermann]

I can test the windows executable on the weekend at home where I have access to a machine running Windows. For OSX I need to check, maybe I can get a Macbook for testing and building.

[jpfeuffer]

Where did you put the sources and the Makefiles now?

[lukaszimmermann]

In a separate repository: https://github.com/lkszmn/SpectraST

[timosachsenberg]

what'S the status here?

[lukaszimmermann]

Linux binary should be fine. I am going to prepare the Windows executables. TPP is not officially supported for Mac OSX. Should we try to include it anyway or omit the executable for this platform?

[timosachsenberg]

I think it would be great to have SpectraST on mac

[lukaszimmermann]

Ok I am going to try to build the executable on Mac

[lukaszimmermann]

Added executables for MacOS 64bit and Win64.

[jpfeuffer]

Mac works for me +1 (10.12.whatever)

[jpfeuffer]

win binary works too. will merge.
