During compilation of the MOHID source code, at preprocessing time, depending on the definition and values of preprocessor variables, different regions of the code will be compiled. Each preprocessor variable has a scope within the code where it is used. The scope of a preprocessor variable definition can be a single module or it can be the whole solution or only one project of the solution (such as Base1 or Base2).
The advanced MOHID user should be aware of the optional preprocessor settings as the released executables don't contain all the possibilities available and this obliges one to compile its own version of the MOHID executable under certain circumstances.

Exclude modules
Some modules can be completely excluded from compilation. If your simulations do not use these modules you can use this pre-processor keywords.
Scope: MohidWater
_LAGRANGIAN_ excludes Modules Lagrangian + Jet + Oil _AIR_ excludes Modules InterfaceWaterAir + Atmosphere _WAVES_ excludes Module Waves _SEDIMENT_ excludes Modules SedimentProperties + Consolidation
Operating System options
Some parts of the program involves performing some actions at the filesystem level. This is inherent to the operating system. The default operating system is MS-Windows. To compile for the Linux operating system one must set the following preprocessor definition:
Scope: ConvertToHdf5, ConvertToXyz
_USE_NIX Uses linux filesystem commands.
Performance options
Use this option if you want to nest several domains
Scope: global
_USE_MPI includes MPI code
Time Series Maximum Number of Columns in Character size
Default line_length of input/output ascii files such as TimeSeries is 256, however this can be a problem if the time series contains many many columns with many many properties and exceeds the 256 characters limit. Conveniently, this can be changed by defining the following preprocessor options
Scope: MohidBase1 (ModuleGlobalData)
_SHORT_LINE_LENGTH sets line_length = 64 _LONG_LINE_LENGTH sets line_length = 1024 _BIG_LINE_LENGTH sets line_length = 6144 _EXTRA_LONG_LINE_LENGTH sets line_length = 131072 _EXTRA_SHORT_LINE_LENGTH sets line_length = 32
Miscelaneous options
Scope: MohidBase1 (ModuleGlobalData, ModuleHdf5)
_GUI_ includes GUI code
