# OpenCL Installation (optional but recommended)
Vadere uses computer's video card to speed up some computations. Therefore, following OpenCL components should be installed:
* the OpenCL Installable Client Driver loader also called ICD loader (Opencl.dll for Windows and libOpenCL.so for Linux)
* drivers for your device(s)
Both should be offered by the vendor of your device (often there are also open-source solutions). The device can be a CPU as well as a GPU (recommanded). For example, if you have a NVIDIA GPU instaling your drivers should be enough to install both components.
Vadere will search for the best suiable device which is supported. On a desktop workstation this should be your video card (GPU). If there is no device supporting OpenCL Vadere will use a plain and slower Java-implementation instead.
Please, use following instructions to set up the OpenCL components for your operating system:
* Windows: For further information using OpenCL on Windows read the paragraph Running an OpenCL application [click here](https://streamcomputing.eu/blog/2015-03-16/how-to-install-opencl-on-windows/).
* OS X: OpenCL is pre-installed for OS X.
* Linux: Please refer to the installation manual of your Linux distribution.
* [Sources: OpenCL HowTo](https://wiki.tiker.net/OpenCLHowTo)
* Tips and official packages (Ubuntu):
<details>
* Use the console tool `clinfo` (`sudo apt-get install clinfo`) to see the current status in terminal
* Drivers commonly have the prefix `opencl-icd` (to look at most opencl related packages run `apt search opencl`). Some that may be helpful:
* `beignet-opencl-icd` (OpenCL library for Intel GPUs)
* `mesa-opencl-icd` (free and open source implementation of the OpenCL API)
* `nvidia-opencl-icd`
* `ocl-icd-opencl-dev` (installs opencl development files and can be required for compiling)
* `ocl-icd-libopencl1` (Generic OpenCL ICD Loader)
</details>

## Installation
### Download Releases
### Dependencies
* Java 11 (OpenJDK recommended)
* OpenCL (optional but recommended -> see the [install instructions](https://gitlab.lrz.de/vadere/vadere/tree/master/Documentation/installation/OpenCL-Installation.md) for details)
### Pre-Built Releases
Latest build of master:
* [Windows](http://www.vadere.org/builds/master/vadere.master.windows.zip)
* [Linux](http://www.vadere.org/builds/master/vadere.master.linux.zip)

* **vadere-console.jar** - provides the command line version of Vadere and allows easy integration into other applications.
* **VadereModelTests** - contains test scenarios for pedestrian locomotion models. Note: The tests are also useful for a "getting started" (see below "Run Built-In Examples" for details).
To execute the `.jar` files it is highly recommended to use Java 11 (OpenJDK).
### Run the Application
1. Start the Application: After building the application, you can start Vadere by running `java -jar VadereGui/target/vadere-gui.jar`.
2. (If you only want to use the Postvisualization-Tool you can do so by running `java -jar VadereGui/target/postvis.jar`).
### Run Built-In Examples
With the following steps, you can run a simulation with one of the built-in examples from [VadereModelTests](VadereModelTests):
- start Vadere
- *Project* > *Open*
- choose `vadere.project` of one of the projects e.g. [TestOSM](https://gitlab.lrz.de/vadere/vadere/tree/master/VadereModelTests/TestOSM) and click *open*
- select the scenario on the left and press *run selected scenario*

#### Run the Application
1. Get the Source: Run `git clone https://gitlab.lrz.de/vadere/vadere.git`.
2. Build the Application: Go to the project directory and run `mvn clean package` (or `mvn clean package -Dmaven.test.skip` if you want to skip the unit tests). This will build `vadere.jar`, `vadere-console.jar` and `postvis.jar`.
3. Start the Application: After building the application, you can start Vadere by running `java -jar VadereGui/target/vadere.jar`.
4. (If you only want to use the Postvisualization-Tool you can do so by running `java -jar VadereGui/target/postvis.jar`).
