Hi Soliday,

I am trying to compile elegant in my mac since I have modified the source code.

I followed the instructions in Linux Guide and successfully compiled the code in Ubuntu 16.04. Then I tried running the Build-AOP-RPMs.tcl and also tried following the step 1 --step 7 in https://www.aps.anl.gov/Accelerator-Ope ... uide_Linux in my mac, it didn't work.

When I typed make in oagsoftware/oag/apps/src/elegant, after several seconds it showed

Code: Select all

make[1]: *** No rule to make target `../../../lib/linux-x86_64/libmdbcommon.a', needed by `elegantto'.  Stop.
make: *** [install.linux-x86_64] Error 2

In ubuntu libmdbcommon.a is in epics/extensions/lib/linux-x86, I check in Mac, there are not such file, it seems when I type make in epics/extensions/configure, actually it didn't work.

Code: Select all

➜  configure make
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/make -C O.linux-x86_64 -f ../Makefile TOP=../.. \
	    T_A=linux-x86_64 install
make[1]: Nothing to be done for `install'.

Is there some changes need to be done for the instructions with linux ? Or some required development packages are not installed in my mac?

Thanks a lot in advance.
Best,
Biaobin

For MacOS you need to set:
export EPICS_HOST_ARCH=darwin-x86
export HOST_ARCH=darwin-x86

And then run make in:
epics/extensions/configure
epics/extensions/src/SDDS
oag/apps/configure
oag/apps/src/physics
oag/apps/src/xraylib
oag/apps/src/elegant

Hi Soliday,

I followed the steps as:
1. download the source code and then using "tar xvf ***.tar.gz"
- elegant.34.3.1.tar.gz
- oag.apps.configure.tar.gz
- epics.base.configure.tar.gz
- epics.extensions.configure.tar.gz
- SDDS.4.0.tar.gz
2. set environmental variable
- export RPN_DEFNS=/Users/biaobin/.defns.rpn
- export HOST_ARCH=darwin-x86
- export EPICS_HOST_ARCH=darwin-x86
- export PATH=/Users/biaobin/makeElegant/oagsoftware/epics/base/bin/darwin-x86:/Users/biaobin/makeElegant/oagsoftware/epics/extensions/bin/darwin-x86:/Users/biaobin/makeElegant/oagsoftware/oag/apps/bin/darwin-x86:$PATH
3. type make step by step in
- /Users/biaobin/makeElegant/oagsoftware/epics/base
- /Users/biaobin/makeElegant/oagsoftware/epics/extensions/configure
- /Users/biaobin/makeElegant/oagsoftware/epics/extensions/src/SDDS
It occurs error in making SDDS,

Due to licensing issues we don't include the GSL in the source code distribution. It attempts to find a system library version of GSL. In this case it didn't find one. The bug should be fixed by editing rpn_internal.h

#ifdef USE_GSL
#ifdef USE_GSL_FRESNEL
#define NFUNCS 107
#else
#define NFUNCS 105
#endif
#else
#define NFUNCS 103
#endif

Also edit rpn_data.c and change "#if USE_GSL" to "#ifdef USE_GSL"

You might also want to try using MacPorts to get a version of GSL.

Hi Soliday,

Thank you so much. After installed port and gsl, I can compile SDDS now.

In case someone others want to know the details, I listed the following steps in my case.
For compiling elegant,
- cd oag/apps/configure and edit RELEASE to add epics/base path

Code: Select all

EPICS_BASE=$(TOP)/../../epics/base

- then when I type make in oag/apps/configure, there are errors with RULES_PYTHON

Code: Select all

../../configure/RULES_PYTHON:44: *** target file `clean' has both : and :: entries.  Stop.
make: *** [install.darwin-x86] Error 2

change clean:: to clean: will work.
