XML-driven input:
|
Changes with Tahoe 2.0 (360KB) - an informal briefing on the new XML-based input file system.
|
 |
Run Tahoe with the -xsd command line argument to produce the file tahoe.xsd, an XML Schema Definition, which fully
describes all the valid input that can be passed to the Tahoe executable that produced it. Run Tahoe with the -dtd
command line argument to produce the file tahoe.dtd, a description of input parameters in the older-style Document Type
Definition format. To run a simulation with Tahoe:
(1) use the -xsd or -dtd command line arguments to get a description of enabled parameters
(2) create an XML file conforming to the tahoe.xsd or tahoe.dtd file
(3) pass the XML file to Tahoe to run your simulation
Documentation of tahoe.xsd can be found here:
tahoe.xsd

The root of the XML document will generally be the
<tahoe> tag. There are many XML editors available that will guide you in constructing a valid input
file using tahoe.xsd or tahoe.dtd. This video (1161KB) demonstrates the XAmple editor. Here are some schema-driven XML editors.
If you find a good one, let us know.

Pre-/post-processing:

Tahoe and many of the auxiliary tools make use of the I/O classes written mainly by Stephanie Wimmer in the toolbox module.
A number of formats are now supported for input of geometry and
output of results. Support for the different formats is summarized
in the table below.
