Error in gmake while installing systemc-2.3.0

[sonalidutta]

Hi,

 

I am installing the latest version of systemc-2.3.0 using the following commands:

 

cd systemc-2.3.0

mkdir objdir

cd objdir

export CXX=g++

../configure

cd ..

aclocal

automake

cd objdir

gmake

 

While running gmake I get the following Error:

 

Making all in kernel
gmake[3]: Entering directory `/root/Desktop/CHIMP_ea/systemc-2.3.0/objdir/src/sysc/kernel'
/bin/sh ../../../libtool --tag=CXX   --mode=compile g++ -DSC_INCLUDE_FX   -I. -I../../../../src/sysc/kernel -I../../../../src   -Wall -m64  -O3   -MT sc_attribute.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/sc_attribute.Tpo -c -o sc_attribute.lo ../../../../src/sysc/kernel/sc_attribute.cpp

gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/root/Desktop/CHIMP_ea/systemc-2.3.0/objdir/src'

I would like to point out here that gmake produces the following message too:

 

../configure: line 5134: AX_PTHREAD: command not found

 

Also I have the following packages installed in /usr/local:

 

autoconf-2.69

automake-1.10.1

libtool-2.4

aclocal-1.10.1

GNU Make 3.81

 

It will be really helpful if anyone can think of what is wrong here!

 

Thanks

Sonali

Dear Sir/Madam,

May we know which OS you are using ?

We have installed SystemC 2.3.0 on Fedora 14, 15 and 17

without any of the issues you report.

 

Furthermore, the steps you list are just too many.

The following is what you need to do:

1. uncompress the tarball -- a directory is created

2, cd to this directory, and type in './configure'

3. type 'gmake' and the executable library is created

3. type 'make install' and then in the same directory

    you would see a sub-directory named 'lib-linux'

    inside is the main SystemC binary library

There is no need to create the objdir and so forth

 

Please remove the present objdir and so forth

with a 'rm -rf <directory name>' executed from

a directory immediately above the directory in

which the tarball was uncompressed.

 

Hope that helps.

Dear developer,

 

Thanks for the reply.

 

I followed the steps listed in INSTALL file of systemc-2.3.0 package. If those steps are not the right ones, please change it there.

 

I am using Red Hat 5.9

 

As you said, I am trying to install it now by: ./configure, gmake, make install

 

Do you mean gmake install instead of make install?

 

I get the following error when I run gmake:

 

Making all in include
gmake[4]: Entering directory `/root/Desktop/CHIMP_ea/systemc-2.3.0/examples/sysc/2.3/include'

I again started from the scratch and tried

 

./configure

gmake

gmake install

 

gmake install gives me the gfollowing error:

What are thses wierd errors? Is this the reason the INSTALL file asks to create a new directory objdir and install there?

Problem solved using the following steps:

 

cd systemc-2.3.0

mkdir objdir

cd objdir

../configure

gmake

gmake install

 

Thanks

Hi Sonali,

  your original approach (with objdir) is the correct one, the INSTALL file is correct.

 

I don't know what your original error is about.

 

Can you start again from a fresh install, and try these commands (i.e. without aclocal etc)

 

 

rm -rf systemc-2.3.0
tar xzf systemc-2.3.0
cd systemc-2.3.0
mkdir objdir
cd objdir
export CXX=g++
../configure
gmake
 

 

 

regards

Alan

Problem solved! Thanks Alan.

 

P.S. For systemc-2.2.0 I needed to run aclocal and automake in addition to the INSTALL file steps to install it in Red Hat. It was pretty messy!

 

I tried the same set of steps (by default) for the new version of systemc, systemc-2.3.0. But looks like systemc-2.3.0 is more robust and can be installed just by the steps in its INSTALL file.

[apfitch]

Yes, the 2.3.0 release did undergo much more testing on 64 bit systems.

 

Glad it worked,

Alan

Hey Alan,

 

Could you please tell why is it necessary to put,

export CXX=g++

 

I successfully installed systemc-2.3.0 on Ubuntu 12.04 (64bit) without export CXX.

In my case it is working perfectly fine.

 

P.S. - Compilation : g++ -I/usr/local/systemc-2.3.0/include/ -L/usr/local/systemc-2.3.0/lib-linux64/ -o test hello.cpp -lsystemc

 

regards,

Samyak

Hi Samyak, I guess it doesn't matter unless you have multiple versions of a C++ compiler installed, or a C++ compiler that has a different binary name than g++. You're right on Ubuntu and other common distributions g++ should be in your path anyway,

 

regards

Alan
