Javier Arribas 69b8ac00dc - Major changes:
- The executable file and the default configuration file is now changed from "./install/mercurio" and "./conf/mercurio.conf" to "./install/gnss-sdr" and "./conf/gnss-sdr.conf", respectively.
        - Configuration file structure changed to define in a single entry the internal sampling frequency (after the signal conditioner). NOTICE that this change affects the all the adapters (acquisition, tracking, telemetry_decoder, observables, and PVT). All the adapters are now modified to work with this feature.
        - Moved several in-line GPS L1 CA parameters (a.k.a magic numbers..) to ./src/core/system_parameters/GPS_L1_CA.h definition file.
        - Tracking blocks now uses DOUBLE values in their outputs.
        - Observables and PVT now are separated. PVT and their associated libraries are moved to ./src/algorithms/PVT
        - Temporarily disabled the RINEX output (I am working on that!)
        - GNSS-SDR screen output now gives extended debug information of the receiver status and events. In the future, this output will be redirected to a log file.

- Bug fixes:
        - FILE_SIGNAL_SOURCE now works correctly when the user configures GNSS-SDR to process the entire file.
        - GPS_L1_CA_DLL_PLL now computes correctly the PRN start values.
        - GPS_L1_CA_DLL_FLL_PLL now computes correctly the PRN start values.
        - Several modifications in GPS_L1_CA_Telemetry_Decoder, GPS_L1_CA_Observables, and GPS_L1_CA_PVT modules to fix the GPS position computation.

- New features
        - Tracking blocks perform a signal integrity check against NaN outliers before the correlation process.
        - Tracking and PVT binary dump options are now documented and we provide MATLAB libraries and sample files to read it. Available in ./utils/matlab" and "./utils/matlab/libs"
        - Observables output rate can be configured. This option enables the GPS L1 CA PVT computation at a maximum rate of 1ms.
        - GPS_L1_CA_PVT now can perform a moving average Latitude, Longitude, and Altitude output for each of the Observables output. It is configurable using the configuration file.
        - Added Google Earth compatible Keyhole Markup Language (KML) output writer class (./src/algorithms/PVT/libs/kml_printer.h and ./src/algorithms/PVT/libs/kml_printer.cc ). You can see the receiver position directly using Google Earth.
        - We provide a master configuration file which includes an in-line documentation with all the new (and old) options. It can be found in ./conf/master.conf

README

How to set up the compilation environment for Ubuntu 9.10 and 10.04

- Download GNU Radio 3.3.0 from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnuradio
- Compile and install following the instructions at http://gnuradio.org/redmine/wiki/1/UbuntuInstall
- Install bjam with the command 'sudo apt-get install bjam'
- Install Boost.Build with the command 'sudo apt-get install boost-build'
- Add the system variable GNURADIO_330_ROOT with the location of the sources of gnuradio-3.3.0 
- Download gtest-1.4.0.tar.gz from http://code.google.com/p/googletest.
- Unpack gtest-1.4.0.tar.gz into some folder.
- From the folder containing gtest build the libraries and install them:
	- GTEST$ ./configure
	- GTEST$ make
	- GTEST$ make check
	- GTEST$ sudo make install
- Add the following line to your .bashrc:
	- export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:/usr/local/lib
- Download glog-0.3.0.tar.gz from http://code.google.com/p/google-glog.
- Unpack glog-0.3.0.tar.gz into some folder.
- From the folder containing glog, build and install the libraries:
	- GLOG$ ./configure
	- GLOG$ make
	- GLOG$ sudo make install
	NOTE: THE LOG FILES ARE STORED BY DEFAULT /TMP/
- Download gflags-1.3.tar.gz from http://code.google.com/p/google-gflags.
- Unpack gflags-1.3.tar.gz into some folder.
- From the folder containing gflags, build the libraries and install them:
	- GFLAGS$ ./configure
	- GFLAGS$ make
	- GFLAGS$ sudo make install
	
 - (28/11/2011) Download, compile, and install the Armadillo linear algebra library
 	1. Download the latest stable version from http://arma.sourceforge.net/
 	2. Unpack it
 	3. Open a shell, change into the directory that was
  	created by unpacking the armadillo archive, and type the following
  	commands:
  	cmake .
  	make 
 	The full stop separated from "cmake" by a space is important.
  	CMake will figure out what other libraries are currently installed
  	and will modify Armadillo's configuration correspondingly.
  	CMake will also generate a run-time armadillo library, which is a 
  	combined alias for all the relevant libraries present on your system
  	(eg. BLAS, LAPACK and ATLAS).
  	4. Install the library
  	sudo make install
  	
(11/12/2010) GSL AND CBLAS ARITHMETIC

In order to compile the arithmetic tests, the GNU Scientific Library (GSL) library package is needed.
Install the ubuntu package with:

sudo apt-get install libgsl0ldbl


To build the project type call bjam from the project root folder.

PROFILING

In order to do profiling, you'll have to install google-perftools library.
- Download google-perftools-1.5.tar.gz from http://code.google.com/p/google-perftools.
- Unpack google-perftools-1.5.tar.gz into some folder.
- From the folder containing google-perftools, build and install the libraries:
	- PERFTOOLS$ ./configure
	- PERFTOOLS$ make
	- PERFTOOLS$ sudo make install
	
Once google-perftools is installed, you can use the script "profiler" which is placed 
in the root folder of GNSS-SDR sources. The script must be run as root since it makes use
of "nice". The result of the profiling are two files, mercurio.cpu.prof and mercurio.head.prof.0001.heap,
that contain the results for CPU and HEAP profiling. You can use google-perftools' script pprof
to analyze the recorded data.

(Sample of .bashrc configuration)

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:/usr/local/lib
export GNURADIO_330_ROOT=/home/gnss/sdr/gnuradio-3.3.0
