| <h2>
 | |
| <a NAME="Utilities"></a>Data Services and Utilities</h2>
 | |
| Within Zoltan, several utilities are provided to simplify both application development and development of new algorithms
 | |
| in the library.  
 | |
| They are separate from the Zoltan library so
 | |
| that applications can use them independently of Zoltan, if desired.  They are compiled separately 
 | |
| from Zoltan and can be archived in separate libraries.  Instructions for
 | |
| <a href="#Building Utilities">building the utilities</a>
 | |
| and <a href="#Building Applications">applications</a> using them
 | |
| are included below; individual library names are listed in the following documentation for each 
 | |
| package.  
 | |
| <p>
 | |
| The packages available are listed below.
 | |
| <blockquote><a href="ug_util_mem.html">Memory Management Utilities</a>
 | |
| <br><a href="ug_util_comm.html">Unstructured Communication Utilities</a>
 | |
| <br><a href="ug_util_dd.html">Distributed Directory Utility</a>
 | |
| </blockquote>

| <h2>
 | |
| <a NAME="Building Utilities"></a><hr>Building Utilities</h2>
 | |
| The utilities provided with Zoltan have their own makefiles and can
 | |
| be built separately from Zoltan.  If the user 
 | |
| <a href="../ug_html/ug_usage.html#Building the Library">builds the Zoltan library</a>, 
 | |
| the utility libraries are
 | |
| built automatically and copied to the appropriate <i>Zoltan/Obj_<platform></i>
 | |
| directory, where <<i>platform</i>> is specified through the 
 | |
| <a href="../ug_html/ug_usage.html#Building the Library">ZOLTAN_ARCH environment variable</a>.  
 | |
| Zoltan and the utilities share the 
 | |
| <a href="../ug_html/ug_usage.html#Building the Library"><i>Utilities/Config/Config.<platform></i></a>
 | |
| files specifying compilation paths for
 | |
| various architectures. 
 | |
| If, however, a user wishes to use these
 | |
| utilities without using Zoltan, he must build the libraries 
 | |
| separately. 
 | |
| <p>
 | |
| 
 | |
| The structure and use of makefiles for the utilities are similar
 | |
| to <a href="ug_usage.html#Building the Library">Zoltan's makefiles</a>; 
 | |
| a top-level makefile includes rules for building each utility's 
 | |
| library.  Object files and the utility libraries are stored in
 | |
| a subdirectory <i>Obj_<platform></i>, where <<i>platform</i>> is 
 | |
| a target architecture  supported with a 
 | |
| <i><a href="../ug_html/ug_usage.html#Building the Library">Utilities/Config/Config.<platform></i></a>
 | |
| file.  The command for compiling a particular utility follows:
 | |
| <blockquote>
 | |
| gmake ZOLTAN_ARCH=<<i>platform</i>> <<i>library_name</i>>
 | |
| </blockquote>
 | |
| where <<i>library_name</i>> is the name of the utility library, and
 | |
| <<i>platform</i>> is the target architecture (corresponding to 
 | |
| <i>Utilities/Config/Config.<platform></i>). 
 | |
| The <<i>library_name</i>> for each utility is included in the following documentation
 | |
| for the utilities. 
 | |
| <p>
 | |

 | |
| <h2>
 | |
| <a NAME="Building Applications"></a><hr>Building Applications</h2>
 | |
| The utilities are designed so that they can easily be used separately 
 | |
| from Zoltan in applications.   
 | |
| To enable type-checking of arguments, the 
 | |
| function-prototypes file for a utility should be included
 | |
| in all application source code files that directly access the utility.  
 | |
| The application must also link with the
 | |
| appropriate utility library (and any other libraries on which
 | |
| the utility depends).  Library and function-prototype file names
 | |
| for each utility are listed in the following documentation for the
 | |
| utilities.
