Re: Issues with building EDM on Debian 8 32bit

[Shawn Rapaz <srapaz@triumf.ca>]

It is having an issue linking back to EPICS_BASE for some reason when I go to build it.I can create a symbolic from /usr1/local/epics/release/R3.14.12.5/base/include/cvtFast.h to /usr1/local/epics/extensions/include/edm/ . This worked but is not correct way of doing this as I have to add more and more include files. I have even exported EPICS_BASE:

export EPICS_BASE=/usr1/local/epics/release/R3.14.12.5/base/

But this also does not work. It must be something to do with my path that not getting set correctly, although I have this set in my /usr1/local/epics/extensions/configure/RELEASE file:

EPICS_BASE=/usr1/local/epics/release/R3.14.12.5/base
EPICS_EXTENSIONS=$(TOP)

I am trying to build EDM in the following directory:

/usr1/local/epics/extensions/src/edm

I am assuming there must be an issue with a path as /usr1/local/epics/release/R3.14.12.5/base/includes/cvtFast.h does exist.

I'm puzzled that I don't see the path to EPICS Base here.  Specifically
you should see "-I$(EPICS_BASE) -I$(EPICS_BASE)/os/Linux" (expanded of
course).

However, the fast that make proceeds far enough to invoke the compiler
suggests that you have the correct path for EPICS_BASE.

../group.h:27:21: fatal error: cvtFast.h: No such file or directory

"cvtFast.h" comes from EPICS Base.  Does it exist for you as
"/usr1/local/epics/release/R3.14.12.5/base/include/cvtFast.h"?  If not
then Base is probably not build correctly.


FYI, a set of instructions which I've checked

Hello,

I have successfully built EPICS Base as well as EPICS extensions but I
cannot build EDM successfully. I am currently trying to build
edm-1-12-102. I have the following set:

/usr1/local/epics/extensions/configure/RELEASE:

EPICS_BASE=/usr1/local/epics/release/R3.14.12.5/base

MOTIF_LIB=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu
MOTIF_INC=/lib/i386-linux-gnu

I also created a /usr/X11R6 directory with the following link:

 lib -> /lib/i386-linux-gnu

This is my export:
export EPICS_HOST_ARCH=linux-x86

When I try to build, I get the following error:
