RE: Required Perl modules?

That XML file does not look right.  Its name contains the string “gui”, and I think it describes a GUI layout, not the camera features.

Mark,

 

I am working on getting the camera recognized on linux.

 

I did plug it into a Windows machine where SpinView caches the XML into 

 

C:\ProgramData\Spinnaker\Shared\XML

 

From which I got the attached (in a zip archive)  XML file. Does it look reasonable?  I will try arv-tool soon.

 

John

Hi John,

 

Have you extracted the XML file for that camera using arv-tool?  If you send it to me I’ll add it to ADGenICam and create the .template and OPI files for it.

I should add, I am trying to use a FLIR BFS-U3-161S7M

Is there an example st.cmd file for a BlackFlyS USB camera?

 

iocBoot/iocSpinnaker/start_epics  references st.cmd.bflys_usb3

 

but that doesn't exist.

 

Thanks,

 

John

My bad.  I incorrectly cloned ADGenICam into ADGeniCam.  John

I should note the running make in ADGeniCam works but running make in support_flir stir produces the same error.

Mark,

 

Using base-7.0.6, areaDetector-R3-13,  and your list of prerequisites below I have gotten as far as ADGeniCam (in my effort to get to ADSpinnaker).

Hi John,

 

This is what I have found necessary for our installations.

 

In order to build EPICS base and the synApps support tree, including our local application, on RHEL 9  I needed to install the following additional packages:

 

• telnet
• libusb-devel
• perl-FindBin
• perl-ExtUtils-Command
• re2c
• rpcgen
• libtirpc-devel
• boost-devel
• readline-devel
• libssh2-devel
• zeromq-devel
• libraw1394-devel

 

areaDetector needs aravis to be installed.  aravis requires installing

• aravis clone from Github.  I put it in /usr/local/aravis
• glib2-devel
• libxml2-devel
• meson
• Building aravis according to these instructions:https://aravisproject.github.io/aravis/aravis-stable/building.html

 

Measurement Computing support requires installing their uldaq library, which is built from source.  That can be built and installed as follows:

• Clone https://github.com/mccdaq/uldaq
• Run the following commands:

./configure

make

sudo make install

All,

 

I am building EPICS support on a new (for me) version of linux, Alma 9.  Previous work on Scientific Linux 7.

 

I got to calc-R3-7-5 and I run into a PERL related error. 

 

perl -CSD -MExtUtils::Command -e cat ../calcSupport_LOCAL.dbd ../calcSupport_withSSCAN.dbd ../calcSupport_withSNCSEQ.dbd > calcSupport.dbd

Can't locate ExtUtils/Command.pm in @INC (you may need to install the ExtUtils::Command module) (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5/5.32 /usr/local/share/perl5/5.32 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5).

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

 

A quick look at the Alma 9 PERL install shows ExtUtils missing.  

 

I see that the Alma 9 PERL install appears to be missing other modules I see in the SL7 PERL install.

 

I am wondering if there is a list PERL modules needed for EPICS build?  (as opposed to discovery by trial)

 

Thanks,

 

John Dobbins
