Add information about re-compilation to install instructions #38

Closed andreas-h closed 5 years ago

andreas-h commented 5 years ago

When working with WRF, sometimes one needs to re-compile the code (e.g., after changing some things in the source code). When changing the Registry, even a full re-compile is necessary (e.g., ./clean -a && ./compile em_real && ./compile wrf).

From the compilation instructions here, it is unclear to me how this relates to the WRF-CMAKE build system.

Do I always follow the cmake ... && make install ? Or do I have to clean somehow when changing the registry?

This should be added to the documentation.

Please see https://github.com/WRF-CMake/wrf/blob/wrf-cmake/doc/cmake/INSTALL.md#build-and-install-wrf-cmake. There's a point saying:

  • If you change any registry files, then just re-run make install.

Is that what you were looking for?

Yes that's fine, thank you for pointing out what I was apparently too blind to see :-/
