Questions about recompiling Lammps with modified pair_sw.cpp

Dear all,

I want to recompile LAMMPS with pair_sw.cpp file modified by other researchers. I find there are two directories in LAMMPS: src/ and src/MANYBODY/. Do I need to overlay all these two pair_sw.cpp with the modified file and then recompile LAMMPS?

What is the function of pair_sw.cpp in the directory src/MANYBODY/ ?

Thanks for any help.

John.

LAMMPS will only compile files in src into the LAMMPS executable.

when installing (or uninstalling) packages, e.g. with "make
yes-manybody", files from the corresponding subdirectory are copied
into the src folder (or removed from src for make no-<package>).
