Building

In order to build the bdtree package .jar file:

(1) Clone and build BEAST2 from here;

(2) Clone the bdtree repository side-by-side with the beast2/ directory resulting from step (1);

(3) From bdtree/, type:

$ ant

This command invokes the ant tool, which executes the building instructions inside build.xml. The new bdtree .jar file will be put inside build/dist/.

Models
