SDDS source compilation in Debian

[blanco-garcia]

Dear all,
I've been trying to compile the SDDS tools using SDDSbase 7.0.8 on a Debian 12 machine and I get the following error. Is there any variable that should be configured differently on Debian?

That is not a directory that is normally compiled. The only thing in oag/apps/src/utils that would be useful is the tools subdirectory.

[blanco-garcia]

Dear Soliday,
alright. It might be a component in epics base that I compiled without knowing it was not necessary just because it is in the epics base Makefile. I will try to do it with the epics version distributed with elegant.

Best regards,

[blanco-garcia]

Dear Soliday,
it was my mistake. I was missing the epics.base.configure file. Now I have it and the compilation stops at cadef.h. Do you have any suggestion ?

[soliday]

cadef.h is part of the EPICS Base distribution. Are you using EPICS? If not, then you will not need to build the oagca or the SDDSepics directories. Often people are only interested in the SDDS toolkit and elegant. That is why we supply the epics.base.configure file. We use the compile rules from EPICS without needing the entire EPICS source code tree. If however you are using EPICS, then you will need to downloads the latest version from https://epics.anl.gov/download/base/base-7.0.8.tar.gz

You would use this in-place of the epcs.base.configure files, and would have to compile it before compiling our software.

Dear Soliday,
few years ago I wanted to have sddsedit working on linux and in order to compile it I needed the whole epics base.
This might indeed not longer be the case, I will try without epics and with the new epics base on your link.

[soliday]

Technically sddsedit does not use EPICS, however we have an EPICS package that is built by default for the scripting tools. You can skip it if you edit oag/apps/src/tcltkinterp/extensions/Makefile and change:
DIRS = ca os sdds rpn
to
DIRS = os sdds rpn

Dear Soliday,
thank you for your help. I finally suceed compiling all except oag/apps/src/utils because of the missing gsl library I mentioned before.
This discussion could be closed.
