RIGI: Applications Summary
Foreground: User Environment Setup
User environment on most of CSCS computing resources is defined via the the module command mechanism. Unfortunately this approach introduce some complexity in the setup of a correct programming and linking environment. However they are several important advantages in favor of this approach, in particular:
-
Independence/Stability toward new releases of compilers or libraries. This is particularly true whenever the validation of the software is not trivial, or if the application need to be reliable or stable over time.
-
Flexibility: Possibility to keep/use different releases of compilers, libraries or tools.
