How to get started:
-
You will need to install MATLAB on your computer. If you're at the University of Virginia, then you can follow these links for installation help:
-
Once MATLAB is installed, you will need to install xolotl. Although xolotl is written in C++, the program is designed to run in the MATLAB environment. To install xolotl, follow these instructions:
-
Download the xolotl_class.zip (link).
-
Unzip the final xolotl_class.zip to your Desktop folder.
-
Open MATLAB.
-
In MATLAB, navigate to the xolotl_class directory. In the directory, setup_xolotl_beenhakker_class.m in the MATLAB command line.
-
A dialog box will open. If you have left the setup_xolotl_beenhakker_class.m file in the folder just click OK or Select Folder (different UI for Mac and PC).
-
If MATLAB, MATLAB Toolboxes, and Compilers have been installed, watch all the pop-ups and wait until the interface for xolotlAPP pops up.
-
When you open up MATLAB you should be able to run runXolotlRun.m to complete the exercises.
