Installing systemc on Ubuntu

[Maryam]

Hi

I am a beginner.

I'm installing systemc231 on Ubuntu and I have done this

Tar -xzvf systemc-2.3.1.tgz

Cd systemc-2.3.1

Sudo mkdir /usr/local/systemc231

Mkdir objdir

Cd objdir

Export cxx="<compiler>"

Export cxx=g++

Export cxx=clang++

Seven cxx g++

It answers :command not found

Then I continued:

../configure

It took a moment and check something but finally it answered :

Configure:error: in /home/Ubuntu/systemc-2.3.1/objdir':

Configure:error:c++compiler cannot create executables see 'config.log' for more details

And then I continued :

Make

And it answered :

Make:*** no targets specified no makefile found. Stop.

Now what can l do?

Hi maryam

Let's start from the beginning...

In the terminal, the command
mv systemc-2.3.1.tgz systemc-2.3.1.tar
will create a folder named systemc-2.3.1 in the same folder as tarball file is present. At
systemc-2.3.1/src/sysc/datatypes/bit there should be a file named sc_bit_proxies.h which contains
the keyword mutable. It specifies that the member which follows does not affect the externally
visible state of the class - this led to linking problems in my first attempt. Therefore, all the occurrences
of mutable should be deleted.
To install the package, the bash can be used again:
cd systemc-2.3.1
sudo mkdir /usr/local/systemc-2.3
mkdir objdir
cd objdir
sudo ../configure prefix=/usr/local/systemc-2.3
sudo make
sudo make install

 

Optionally, the rather long path to the packet’s location can be exported into an environment variable:
export SYSTEMC_HOME=/usr/local/systemc-2.3/
To make the changes permanent, the environment file has to be edited:
sudo gedit /etc/environment
SYSTEMC_HOME=/usr/local/systemc-2.3/
Lastly the path in LD_LIBRARY_PATH needs to be updated:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/systemc-2.3/lib-linux64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

To me, the incomplete transcript looks like a broken compiler installation.  Please make sure to install a C++ compiler, e.g.

sudo aptitude install g++-multilib

If that doesn't help, please post a full transcript of the installation steps (your listing contains several typos, which are expected to fail).

 

 

At systemc-2.3.1/src/sysc/datatypes/bit there should be a file named sc_bit_proxies.h which contains

of mutable should be deleted.

 

Markus, can you please share some details?  The error you describe should have been fixed in SystemC 2.2.0 and later.

 

Thanks,
