Re: [ptp-dev] Problems building sdm on AIX

Dave,

libaif is a stand-alone library, so adding a dependency on utils is not an option. Instead, I'd suggest disabling generating the testaif executable for AIX.

To do this, modify the libaif/configure.in as follows. Change:

os=`uname -s`
if test "x$os" = "xAIX" ; then
        CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -qinfo=gen -qcpluscmt"
else
        CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -Wall"
fi

to: 

os=`uname -s`
if test "x$os" = "xAIX" ; then
        CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -qinfo=gen -qcpluscmt"
        AIX=1
else
        CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -Wall"
        AIX=0
fi
AM_CONDITIONAL([AIX], [test "$AIX" = 1])

Next, add conditionals to the libaif/Makefile.am as follows:

if !AIX
noinst_PROGRAMS = testaif
endif

and:

if !AIX
testaif_SOURCES = testaif.c
testaif_CFLAGS = -I. $(AM_CFLAGS) -g
testaif_LDFLAGS = -g
testaif_LDADD = libaif.a
endif

Then re-run autoconf followed by automake. Hopefully the library should still build, but the testaif executable won't be built any more.

Regards,
Greg

Running autoconf and autolocal solved my problems running automake but didn't solve the problem I have getting the timestamp that is part of the directory name for org.eclipse.ptp.utils.

I looked at the configure.in for org.eclipse.ptp.rm.ibm.pe.proxy where the build also requires libutils and copied part of that into the configure.in in the SDM libaif subdirectory and discared my Makefile.am changes.

The fragment I copied into configure.in is
VERSION="_$PACKAGE_VERSION"
if test `expr "$VERSION" : "_@@<:@^@@:>@*@"` -gt 0 ; then
    VERSION=
fi

UTILS="`echo ../org.eclipse.ptp.utils${VERSION}`"
if test ! -d $UTILS; then
    UTILS="`echo ../../core/org.eclipse.ptp.utils${VERSION}`"
fi

echo "=====> VERSION " $VERSION
echo "=====? UTILS " $UTILS
LIBS="-L$UTILS -lutils"

I ran autoconf then ran the BUILD script. The log file for libaif shows that VERSION is set to _2.1.0 but I'm not sure where _$PACKAGE_VERSION gets it's value from or oif this is what I should be doing to get the timestamp.

The link for libaif fails because the path to libutils is improperly constructed.

Dave,

You probably need to run autoconf (and possibly aclocal) before automake in order to bring everything up to the correct version.

I'm trying to build the sdm module on AIX and am running into problems.

The first problem, which I can fix, is that org.eclipse.ptp.utils/src/compat.c has a function definition

vasprintf(char **strp, const char *fmt, va_list ap)

that needs to change to

vasprintf(char **ret, const char *fmt, va_list ap)


Once I change that and run the BUILD script for AIX, the build for the sdm fails in libaif with an unresolved reference to asprintf, which is only available in libutils.a for AIX. The asprintf function is not implemented by standard AIX libraries.


I tried to fix this by changing the Makefile.am file in org.eclipse.ptp.drbug.sdm/libaif to add -lutils to testaif_LDFLAGS, but when I tried to run automake I got an error telling me the configuration files were built using autoconf 2.61 while I have version 2.63. So I can't rebuild the files.


I'm also not sure how to specify the -L flag to point to the org.eclipse.ptp.utils directory since the directory hs a timestamp as part of its name, and I'm not sure libaif is teh only directory where I need to change the Makefiles.
