Installation (configure) problem

[aarone]

Hi!,

I'm trying to install SystemC by following the INSTALL doc instructions.

 

> mkdir objdir

> cd objdir

> setenv CXX g++

> ../configure

../configure: Command not found.

>

 

There is no information about which command is not found. 

 

XTERM_SHELL=/usr/intel/pkgs/tcsh/6.15.00/bin/tcsh

HOSTTYPE=x86_64

MACHTYPE=x86_64-suse-linux

HOSTYPE=x86-64_linux_sles11

VER=sles11

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi.

 

configure is a file to be executed that should reside in your SystemC install directory.

 

Did you create the objdir directory in the SystemC directory?

Do you see the the file 'configure' in your SystemC directory?

 

Greetings

Hi Ralph,

yes, to both questions.

 

Thanks,

Aaron

Hi again,

 

is the configure file marked as executable?

ls -l
...
-rwxr--r--  1 myuser mygroup 576K Apr 17  2014 configure
...

If not, add the executable flag.

If yes, you could try

sh ../configure

Greetings

Hi Ralph,

yes, the program is executable.

 

Running with sh I get:

 

> sh ../configure

: command not found16: 

../configure: line 31: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'

'./configure: line 31: `     ;;

Thanks,

Aaron

Did you possibly open the file in an editor end change the line endings to Windows style? Line endings should be unix style.

[aarone]

Yes, probably the problem was that I untar'd with Windows's winzip. 

I removed all and unpacked again, and the configure script run properly.

Thanks Ralph!

Hello Aaron

Could you configure that?

Because I have an error in configuration:

"Compiler not supported"

Have you had that error?

Do you know how can I fix this?

Hello again Aarone,

I am sorry for my mistake in spelling your name.

[aarone]

NP, the name is indeed Aaron :-)

 

No, that is not the problem I had (which was due to un-taring the package in Windows before using it in Linux).

For your issue, check that you have g++ installed and you run

> setenv CXX g++

 

Hope this helps...

Thanks Aarone

Hello,

In addition to the excellent details that Ralph has provided,

please note that there is no real need to creating the 'objdir'.

After de-compressing the compressed file, simply 'cd' into

the newly created directory with the source files and without

making any changes to any of the shell scripts, just type

'./configure'. It should work. The final executable library,

'lib-linux' is stored in the same directory and may be accessed

during compilation(absolute or relative directory path) and

execution(LD_LIBRARY ....). Hope that helps.
