I added unit tests for the new interpolation functions. This required making the functions public and documenting them. Limited the interpolator's maximum time span to 8 days, to keep the measured error reasonably small.
Source Generator
This directory contains code and data for generating the various language implementations of Astronomy Engine.
It is only needed by contributors who want to make enhancements or fix bugs. People who just want to use Astronomy Engine for a given programming langauge can safely ignore this directory and use the source code that has already been generated for that language.
Linux and macOS
Tool setup
The following tools are required for developers:
- gcc
- Node.js
- npm (needed to install other tools like TypeScript, jsdoc2md, ...)
- Python 3.7+
- Microsoft .NET 6.0 SDK
- doxygen
- xsltproc
- coreutils
Change into the directory hydrogen and execute: npm init.
Build process
Once you have all the tools installed and configured, you are ready to proceed.
Change into the generate directory (this directory) and run the bash script
./run to rebuild all code, generate all documentation, and run all the unit tests.
Windows
Tool setup
The following tools are required for developers:
-
Microsoft .NET 6.0 SDK
-
Node.js
-
npm (needed to install other tools like TypeScript, jsdoc2md, ...)
-
Python 3.7+
-
doxygen
-
xsltproc (Follow instructions at https://www.zlatkovic.com/libxml.en.html)
Hint for 64-bit Windows: You will need to download the following archives from here:
- iconv-1.14-win32-x86_64.7z
- libtool-2.4.6-win32-x86_64.7z
- libxml2-2.9.3-win32-x86_64.7z
- libxslt-1.1.28-win32-x86_64.7z
- mingwrt-5.2.0-win32-x86_64.7z
Use 7-Zip to expand these archives into a newly-created empty directory. Just unzip them all to the same place. Verify that the
bindirectory beneath your new directory containsxsltproc.exeand a bunch of DLLs. Either copy the contents ofbinto somewhere in yourPATH, or add thisbindirectory to yourPATH. Verify that you can runxsltproc.exefrom the command prompt without any popups about missing DLLs.
Build process
Once you have all the tools installed and configured, you are ready to proceed.
Change into the generate directory (this directory) and run the
batch file run.bat to rebuild all code, generate all documentation,
and run all the unit tests.
