The PARTS Library

The PARTS library holds information necessary to build a t_ppf_loops object, which runs PARTS calculations. This library is not self-contained, and must be linked together with the RNA library into an executable. The names of this library, depending on the operating system on which it is built, are as follows:

• Linux systems, 32 or 64 bit: libPARTS.so
• Macintosh systems: libPARTS.dylib
• Windows systems (cygwin): PARTS_Library.dll

The Postscript Library

The Postscript library holds information necessary to build a variety of specific objects, each of which has the ability to draw a specific type of Postscript image. This library is not self-contained, and must be linked together with the Dynalign library into an executable. The names of this library, depending on the operating system on which it is built, are as follows:

• Linux systems, 32 or 64 bit: libPS.so
• Macintosh systems: libPS.dylib
• Windows systems (cygwin): Postscript_Library.dll

The RNA Library

The RNA library holds information necessary to build an RNA object, which is a basic representation of a single strand of nucleic acids and any data associated with it. This library provides access to most single sequence secondary structure prediction and analysis methods. This library is self-contained and depends on no other libraries once built. The names of this library, depending on the operating system on which it is built, are as follows:

• Linux systems, 32 or 64 bit: libRNA.so
• Macintosh systems: libRNA.dylib
• Windows systems (cygwin): RNA_Library.dll

The TurboFold Library

The TurboFold library holds information necessary to build a TurboFold object, which is used for running TurboFold. This library is not self-contained, and must be linked together with the RNA library into an executable. The names of this library, depending on the operating system on which it is built, are as follows:

• Linux systems, 32 or 64 bit: libTurboFold.so
• Macintosh systems: libTurboFold.dylib
• Windows systems (cygwin): TurboFold_Library.dll

The TurboFold SMP Library

The TurboFold SMP library holds information necessary to build a TurboFold object, which is used for running TurboFold. This library is not self-contained, and must be linked together with the RNA library into an executable. Unlike the TurboFold library (above), the TurboFold SMP library can be used in parallel SMP computing environments. The names of this library, depending on the operating system on which it is built, are as follows:

• Linux systems, 32 or 64 bit: libTurboFold_SMP.so
• Macintosh systems: libTurboFold_SMP.dylib

The RNAstructure (JAVA) GUI Library

The RNAstructure (JAVA) GUI library, unlike the other libraries on this page, is a dynamic library, so it must always stay in the RNAstructure/exe directory, and is not capable of being used for anything other than its connection to the RNAstructure GUI. It holds all information necessary to run calculations from the RNAstructure GUI, so it contains some elements of all the other libraries on this page. This library is self-contained and depends on no other libraries once built. The names of this library, depending on the operating system on which it is built, are as follows:

• Linux: libRNAstructure_GUI_32.so (on 32-bit systems) or libRNAstructure_GUI_64.so  (on 64-bit systems)
• Mac OS X:  libRNAstructure_GUI.dylib
• Windows:  RNAstructure_GUI_32.dll (on 32-bit systems) or  RNAstructure_GUI_64.dll  (on 64-bit systems)
