GIDVis / Downloads

Downloads

You can either download the source code (which then can be run in MATLAB) or compiled executable GIDVis versions.

Source Code

You can download the source code of the current master branch, i.e. the latest stable version, as a zip file from here. You can also download the development branch, which contains additional changes (and maybe bugs too) but documentation might not be up-to-date.

You can find the source code of the executable files provided below here.

Compiled GIDVis Downloads

Here you can find compiled GIDVis versions as *.exe files (for Windows) and *.zip files (for Linux). The date in the file name gives the compilation date. The branch compiled is always the master branch.

Windows

To run these *.exe files on Windows, you have to install the MATLAB Runtime according to the version given in the table at "MATLAB Version". The MATLAB Runtime downloads can be found here.

Compiling

If you want to compile your own version of GIDVis, this is of course possible as well. The following compilation route can be recommended. Compiling requires MATLAB and the MATLAB Compiler.

Download the source code of the master branch or the development branch, if you do not have it already. In MATLAB, set the current folder to the directory containing the GIDVis.m file. Run the command addpath(genpath(pwd)) to add all the subdirectories to the MATLAB path.

In case you have already run GIDVis in MATLAB, setting files were created, storing information about selected options, entered values, window positions, ... These should not be included in a compiled version of GIDVis. To remove all setting files, run DeleteSettingsFiles.

Finally, run DeployGIDVis. This will create executable files for your operating system.
