=== Prerequisites for Compiling and Running GiBUU ===

 * GiBUU supports the following operating systems:
        * Linux (primary platform, used by most developers)
        * Windows (via Cygwin), cf. [wiki:windows GiBUU on Windows]
        * Mac OS X, cf. [wiki:mac GiBUU on Mac]
        * other Unix-like systems may also work, but are untested
 * GiBUU can be built with one of the following compilers:
        * [http://www.intel.com/cd/software/products/asmo-na/eng/compilers/ Intel Fortran Compiler] (version 10+)
        * [http://gcc.gnu.org GCC/gfortran] (version 4.3+)
        * [http://www.g95.org/ g95]
        * [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/solarisstudio Sun/Oracle sunf95] (Sun Studio 12.0 or Oracle Solaris Studio 12.3 beta)
        * [http://www.pgroup.com/ Portland pgf95] (version 10.1+) can build release 1.3.1, but fails to compile the current trunk (error in minkowski.f90)
        * [http://www.pathscale.com/ekopath-compiler-suite PathScale] ([https://github.com/path64 Community version] 4.x) can build release 1.3.1, but fails to compile the current trunk (in readHAFT.f: missing support for STREAM I/O)
 * Unsupported Compilers:
        * [http://developer.amd.com/tools/open64/ Open64] (version 4.2.5.2 or [http://svn.open64.net/listing.php?repname=Open64 svn] version) fails to compile GiBUU.f90
        * [http://www.absoft.com Absoft] v11.1.3 fails to compile bzip.f90
        * [http://www.nag.com/ NAG] v5.2.711 currently fails to compile Pythia and Jetset (with double precision)
        * [http://www.lahey.com/linux64.htm Lahey] v8.1 is not supported due to missing Fortran 2003 features (GET_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE, ISO_C_BINDING, ...)
 * The Build process is steared via GNU make.[[BR]] 
 * Automated Makefile dependencies are generated via one of the following methods:
        * a Perl scipt (provided that Perl is installed)
        * [http://personal.inet.fi/private/erikedelmann/makedepf90/ makedepf90]
 * [http://www.bzip.org/ libbzip2] is used for reading compressed input files. For details see [wiki:bzip2 this page].


=== Optional Tools ===

 * '''Version Control''' [[BR]] Our code is based upon a [http://subversion.tigris.org/ Subversion] version control system. The code can therefore be restored to any time point of its development phase.[[BR]] GUI-Tools: [http://zoneit.free.fr/esvn/ eSvn], [http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ tortoise SVN], [http://www.eclipse.org/ eclipse].

 * '''Documentation''' [[BR]] [http://www.xs4all.nl/~rfsber/Robo/robodoc.html ROBODoc] is generating an automatic [http://gibuu.physik.uni-giessen.de/Documentation/ code documentation].

 * '''Visualisation Tools:''' [[BR]]
    * povray
    * Qt
