Experimental Physics and
Industrial Control System

Hi Mark,
   Thanks.
I am using cygwin because i would like to test s7nodave on windows for Siemens S7 communication.
s7nodave using nodave library, which is coded for linux, I am not able to compile on Windows native compiler. 

I succeed to compile base3.14.12.7 with asyn3.24 in cygwin .
Thanks

Dear All

If any one using s7nodave on cygwin for siemens PLC please help me.
I could compile s7nodave on cygwin, 
With application for PLC it get compile without any error.  But while running application getting dll error,

$ ../../bin/cygwin-x86/firsPLC.exe  st.cmd
C:/cygwin/epics/Devlop/firstPLC/bin/cygwin-x86/firsPLC.exe: error while loading shared libraries: s7nodave.dll: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


Or someone have compiled s7nodave on native windows compiler>


Thanks
Vishnu

Hi Vishnu,


How did you define EPICS_BASE in seq-2.2.5/configure/RELEASE?  It looks like you may have used a relative path, because your gcc command has this:

-I../../../../../base-3.16.1/include/compiler/gcc


You should use an absolute path to EPICS_BASE.


Note that not much testing is done on cygwin any more.  I would suggest that you consider using the Visual Studio Community Edition which is free, and which is well tested.


Mark
