[CIG-SHORT] Adding to the libraries

[Ehsan Haghighat]

Hi Brad,

What I do is similar to what is briefed in the document. However, the compilation process is still not very clear to me. 

When I call ‘make’ or ‘make install’ it does not find the changes in subfolder; that’s why I call “make pylith” and then it rebuilds the pylith. However, it will not call automake or swig. Any suggestions here?
