On this page there are links to two versions of the SNoW code and some important notes on installation. There are presently two versions of SNoW: a stand-alone version and a class library version. Existing users of SNoW will be familiar with the stand-alone verson of the code; this version will eventually be replaced by the class library version.
The new class library SNoW is backward compatible with the original, and so can be used in exactly the same way as the original (when installed, it will generate a SNoW executable that works in the same way as that generated by the original). However, it also provides a SNoW class (and supporting classes) so that uses can directly incorporate SNoW's functionality into their C++ code.
The Makefile for each version of SNoW includes commments that indicate where changes should be made if you have any problems with installation. These changes are as simple as commenting or uncommenting a line, or specifying a path to the installation directory.
