Newbie - stuck at makeBaseApp.pl

[Jeffrey Holt <jolt.holt@gmail.com>]

Hello All,

 

I'm a newbie and I can't seem to get the example ioc working.

 

I must be missing something - probably something simple but I'm stuck and any guidance would be very much appreciated. My guess is it has something to do with "Error 2" during the application make - the result is that the example application is simply not created or compiled as far as I can tell. Following are the basic step I took using the cygwin platform:

 

# unzip to c:/epics

 

$ export EPICS_HOST_ARCH=cygwin-x86
$ cd epics/base-3.14.10
$ make

$ echo $EPICS_HOST_ARCH

 

# make directory

 

$ mkdir app
$ cd app
$ c:/epics/base-3.14.10/bin/cygwin-x86/makeBaseApp.pl -t example myapp
$ c:/epics/base-3.14.10/bin/cygwin-x86/makeBaseApp.pl -i -t example myapp

 

# from developers guide : 2.2.4 Sequencer Example
# The sequencer is now supported as an unbundled product. The example includes an example state notation program;
# sncExample.stt. As created by makeBaseApp the example is not built or executed.
# Before sncExample.st can be built, the sequencer must be built using the same version of base that the example uses.
# To build sncExample edit the following files:
# • configure/RELEASE - Set SNCSEQ to the location of the sequencer.
# • iocBoot/iocmyexample/st.cmd - Remove the comment character # from
# #seq sncExample,"user=<user"
# The Makefile contains commands for building sncExample as a component of the ioc application and as a standalone
# application, i.e. an application that does not use an epics database.

$ make

Ideas? Thanks,
