Lexis is the vocabulary used for event-driven communication in and between visualization software, mainly from the BlueBrain and HBPVIS world. It provides various events and shared objects which are implemented on top of ZeroBuf.

Building from Source

Lexis is a cross-platform library, designed to run on any modern operating system, including all Unix variants. It requires a C++11 compiler and uses CMake to create a platform-specific build environment. The following platforms and build environments are tested:

Linux: Ubuntu 16.04, RHEL 6.8 (Makefile, Ninja)
Mac OS X: 10.9 (Makefile, Ninja)

Building from source is as simple as:

git clone https://github.com/HBPVIS/Lexis.git
mkdir Lexis/build
cd Lexis/build
cmake -GNinja ..
ninja
