Developer Information

To contribute the development of SEING, assuming you have cloned the Github repository, and created a new branch, there are three (3) files to work with:

• inputs (.cpp, .h) : This is where all inputs are read and processed. You will want to add any input specific to your fingerprint scheme (such as a name for your fingerprint) to this file.

• genericlocalcalculator (.cpp, .h) or genericglobalcalculator (.cpp, .h): This class acts as a way to switch between different fingerprints based on user inputs. Open those files and add in your own fingerprints as a new possibility.

• your_own_fingerprint (.cpp, .h) files that implement codes specific to the new fingerprint. An existing fingerprint can be used as a starting point for code structure but really, only the calculate_fingerprint and get_size functions are required to be implemented for a fingerprint to be valid.

After implementation and validation, please submit a pull request for addition to the master branch.
