Installation on Mac

[andreashlarsen]

Hi. It is running fine on Linux, but I am trying to install on Mac (for use on a small-angle scattering PhD course) - but not yet with succes. Do you have any guides on installation on MacOS?

related to issue #5 (installation on Windows)

Sadly I have no experience on mac. Can you build the dependencies from the ground up as described here: https://github.com/Tobionecenobi/SEB/wiki/Installing-SEB:-Guide-for-GiNaC-and-GSL-Dependencies

and then build SEB?

ok, seems to work with brew (https://brew.sh/):

brew install cln
brew install gsl
brew install ginac

then I followed the instructions for linux:

• download the SEB-main folder from GitHub and change to this directory

  cd to SEB-main

• in that dir, type:

  make

• seems to work, as the example gave the expected outcome:

  cd Examples
  ./Micelle

• outcome:

  
  Form factor= \frac{9900 \frac{ \sin( R_{sphere} q)^{2} {(-1+\exp(- R_{g_{poly}}^{2} q^{2}))}^{2} \beta_{poly}^{2}}{ R_{g_{poly}}^{4} R_{sphere}^{2} q^{6}}+9 \frac{ {(\sin( R_{sphere} q)- \cos( R_{sphere} q) R_{sphere} q)}^{2} \beta_{sphere}^{2}}{ R_{sphere}^{6} q^{6}}-600 \frac{ \sin( R_{sphere} q) {(-1+\exp(- R_{g_{poly}}^{2} q^{2}))} {(\sin( R_{sphere} q)- \cos( R_{sphere} q) R_{sphere} q)} \beta_{poly} \beta_{sphere}}{ R_{g_{poly}}^{2} R_{sphere}^{4} q^{6}}+200 \frac{ {(-1+\exp(- R_{g_{poly}}^{2} q^{2})+ R_{g_{poly}}^{2} q^{2})} \beta_{poly}^{2}}{ R_{g_{poly}}^{4} q^{4}}}{10000 \beta_{poly}^{2}+\beta_{sphere}^{2}+200  \beta_{poly} \beta_{sphere}}

Form factor amplitude relative to centre= -\frac{100 \frac{ \sin( R{sphere} q) {(-1+\exp(- R{g{poly}}^{2} q^{2}))} \beta{poly}}{ R{g{poly}}^{2} R{sphere} q^{3}}-3 \frac{ {(\sin( R{sphere} q)- \cos( R{sphere} q) R{sphere} q)} \beta{sphere}}{ R{sphere}^{3} q^{3}}}{100 \beta{poly}+\beta{sphere}}

Phase factor tip-to-tip= \frac{ \sin( R{sphere} q)^{2} \exp(-2 R{g{poly}}^{2} q^{2})}{ R{sphere}^{2} q^{2}}

Thanks for sharing! I will close this issue.
