RooFit include error


ROOT Version: 6.14.04
_Platform:_windows 10
Compiler: Not Provided


I installed root using the binary provided. I can’t seem to use RooFit, whenever I include the RooFit header files it just says the file can’t be found.

Any idea what went wrong?

Hi,

Roofit is unfortunately not included in the binaries. We will add it, sorry for the trouble

Cheers, Bertrand.

Hi,
Any updates on how soon the RootFit will be included in the binaries?
Is there an alternative way to use rootfit on windows?

Is rootfit available on an earlier version of Root (binary), so that I can shift to that for the time being, and when the rootfit in included again, I will shift back?

I will rebuild the 6.14.04 binaries tomorrow (note that you can also build ROOT from source…)

Hi,
That is nice to hear. When will the binary be available for download ?
My previous experiences with building root on windows have been …discouraging. I will try again though.

Done, you can download the binaries, Roofit is now included.

Hi,
There is one debug binary available on the download site.

preview Windows Visual Studio 2017 (dbg)

Is this the one?

There are four different binaries: debug, release, zip and exe. Just pick the one you want

When I try to run the fft tutorial, root gives me an error:

I downloaded the fftw3 zip from the website and unpacked it in the bin folder of root.
The error still doesn’t go.

FFTW is not yet part of ROOT 6 on Windows (it has not been tested yet)

I see. Is FFTW going to be included in ROOT 6 in the near future?

Yes, very soon, I hope

Thank you so much for all the awesome behind the scene work you do!
Cheers,

FYI FFTW works just fine, I’ll try to add it for the next releases
