Compilation

IMPORTANT NOTE: The simulation methods described in this section are included in VASP as of version 5.2.12, and require VASP to be compiled with the cpp flag -Dtbdyn that should be included in the corresponding line of makefile, as for instance in the following example:

CPP     = $(CPP_) -DHOST=\"IFC9_fftw\" \
          -Dkind8 -DNGXhalf  -DCACHE_SIZE=12000 -DPGF90 -Davoidalloc  \
          -Dtbdyn
