@cantordust this looks simple enough! I'm already a big fan of meson just through this single commit. A couple of thoughts:
- I changed the base branch of this PR to the project structure branch, because it was actually branched off that one and had the same commit in there. I think it is better if we merge this into a single branch before merging to main.
- Could you update the README with the new build instructions? The old ones (with code::blocks) can go, then I will also know how to test this new build system.
- Since we are changing build system, we should also get rid of the old build system config files (which are these .cbp files that you put in the
configdirectory). I would just remove them.
…le and run `corticalsim3D`: - Updated the instructions for installing dependencies on Windows (to be verified). - Added instructions on setting up and compiling `corticalsim3D`. - Added a Run section (to be updated).

If you change the following lines:
corticalsim3D/config/parameters_ARRAY.txt
Lines 4 to 5 in 2d7a391
to
inputDir ../corticalsim3D/data
outputDir ../corticalsim3D/data
with the current setup instructions, the thing will actually run!

To compile, I needed to type (already using bash) so "ninja corticalsim3d" instead of "meson build" did the trick for me. (This depends on meson using ninja, which may differ per user) Also, cmake is one of the dependencies for using meson on ubuntu, and the libboost-all-dev package is way larger than necessary. I used to run (2D) with less, but can't quickly reconstruct. Maybe the more basic libboost-dev is already sufficient? |

Moved to Meson as the build system. This assumes that the new project structure is in place (see hierarchical-project-structure)
Closes #4
