Environment Variables

Before Compiling Mokka several environment variables have to be set. See my example file.

Compiling Mokka

Now Compile Mokka

$ mokka> gmake -C source/ 

After the compilation (n.b.: This might not be necessary depending on the way geant4 was compiled.) Create a folder "lib" or "lib64" in the the Mokka base directory and create a link to all the Mokka libraries, if this folder does not already exist:

$ mokka/lib> ln -s ../tmp/${G4System}/*/*.so .

Now Mokka should be ready to run!
