Trying to check if a directory exists for my Makefile. Unfortunately, I found out the difference between different versions of Make.
To check the directory I'm using:
if [ -d "D:/MKS" ]; then \
echo.exe "MKS project already exists."; exit 1; \
fi
Using version 'GNU Make 4.1.90 Built for Windows32' it is fine.
With version 'GNU Make 4.1 Built for i686-w64-mingw32' I have in our general GNU tool folder it does not work. Getting this error:
-d was unexpected at this time.
makefile_qac.mk:157: recipe for target 'qac_init' failed
I tried D:/MKS or D:\MKS or D:/MKS/ or "D:/MKS" .. any possible combinations ... not help.
Was there some significant change between version 4.1.9 and 4.1.
Version 4.1.9 is built-in the Eclipse environment so I can not use it separately. And I want to run the build process just from the command line, not from the Eclipse.

I have been able to successfully compile Tcl/Tk Frameworks on macOS (following instructions here). I use these Frameworks inside an .app for distributions. I would like to customize my Frameworks adding extra extensions, for example Drag&Drop TkDND (by the way, I really think this basic GUI feature should be integral part of Tk...).
Instructions here seem to refer to adding the extension to a normal installation, not a Framework. I haven't found any explicit instructions. Sorry if the question is naive, but I am very unexperienced of Tcl/Tk. PS: my .app accesses Tk through Perl. I would very much appreciate any help/instructions/link.
I don't use tkdnd, so I do not have a answer specific to that installation.
Adding to my script I have blocks in my build script such as this one which builds the 'tdom' extension.
cd $SRCDIR
cd tdom*
if [[ $? -eq 0 ]]; then
make distclean
./configure \
--exec-prefix=$INSTLOC \
--prefix=$INSTLOC \
--with-tcl=$INSTLOC/Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework/tclConfig.sh
make CFLAGS="-O2 -mmacosx-version-min=${macosxminver}"
make install
fi
However, linking to the Tk libraries may complicate things. And every package is different and uses different variables. So I will need to download tkdnd and build it and see if there are any issues, so expect an upcoming edit to this answer.
(Edit: I fixed the script in the original question, so the following
paragraph no longer applies)
My changes to the init.tcl script are not quite perfect, as you can see, the wrong package is loaded when I run via 'wish' (wish is in a different location than tclsh, which causes some issues). I should have the local installation's path located earlier in the auto_path. If you are using my script, you need to be aware of this.
bll-mac:$ ../darwin/64/tcl/bin/tclsh
% package require tdom
0.9.1
bll-mac$ ../darwin/64/tcl/bin/wish
% package require tdom
0.8.3
% package require tdom 0.9.1
0.9.1
There really isn't any difference between a framework (and b) and a normal installation, the framework just provides a structure for resource location.
Edit:
It appears that the following works to compile and install the tkdnd package.
The redefinition of PKG_CFLAGS is necessary because the tkdnd makefile
has an argument defined that is not supported by the compiler (on Mojave).
So PKG_CFLAGS is a copy of what's in the makefile without -fobjc-gc.
I only tried doing a package require tkdnd. I don't know how to use
the package, so I did not try anything else.
cd $SRCDIR
cd tkdnd*
if [[ $? -eq 0 ]]; then
make distclean
./configure \
--prefix=$INSTLOC \
--exec-prefix=$INSTLOC \
--with-tcl=$INSTLOC/Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework \
--with-tk=$INSTLOC/Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework
make CLAGS_OPTIMIZE="-O2 -mmacosx-version-min=${macosxminver}" \
PKG_CFLAGS="-DMAC_TK_COCOA -std=gnu99 -x objective-c"
make install
fi
This seems to install the extension in the standard path (/usr/local/lib) but not in the Tk.framework. Probably the "make instal" should require some extra values.
I installed the latest Cygwin on my Windows 7 machine: version 2.893 (64-bits). I made sure I included cmake, i.e. I was able to add several packages by running the Cygwin net release setup program again, after doing the first installation. I then tried to use cmake and made sure I invoked it from the bin directory:
user008#L0147816 /bin
$ ./cmake
CMake Error: Could not find CMAKE_ROOT !!!
CMake has most likely not been installed correctly.
Modules directory not found in
//share/cmake-3.6.2
Usage
cmake [options] <path-to-source>
cmake [options] <path-to-existing-build>
Specify a source directory to (re-)generate a build system for it in the
current working directory. Specify an existing build directory to
re-generate its build system.
Run 'cmake --help' for more information.
I don't know where the build directory could be. I'm relatively new to Cygwin. I hope somebody has found a solution for getting cmake installed and working properly under Cygwin.
This looks cmake 101.
Assuming you want to just build a software download from somewhere
eg gl2ps:
# choosing a test area
$ cd /tmp
# downloading source
$ wget http://geuz.org/gl2ps/src/gl2ps-1.4.0.tgz
# expanding source code
$ tar -xf gl2ps-1.4.0.tgz
$ ls gl2ps-1.4.0-source/
CMakeLists.txt COPYING.LGPL gl2ps.h gl2ps.tex gl2psTestSimple.c
COPYING.GL2PS gl2ps.c gl2ps.pdf gl2psTest.c README.txt
# preparing a build area
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
# invoking cmake and pointing to the source directory
$ cmake ../gl2ps-1.4.0-source/
-- The C compiler identification is GNU 7.3.0

Here a solution I just found.
Let's name 3 directories:
{cygwin64-path}/bin/: cmake.exe is here.
{cygwin64-path}/usr/share/: cmake module directory (such as cmake-3.20.0) is here.
{cygwin64-path}/share/: cmake.exe trying to find cmake-module-directory here, but it doesn't exist.
It's wired because cygwin install cmake-module-directory in {cygwin64-path}/usr/share/, but cmake.exe looks for the directory in {cygwin64-path}/share/.
So solution is simple. Each one below works.
METHOD 1: Create the directory {cygwin64-path}/share/ and copy all relevant directories and files from {cygwin64-path}/usr/share/ to the new directory.
METHOD 2: Create a Symbolic links {cygwin64-path}/share/ to {cygwin64-path}/usr/share/.
In windows 10 Administrator cmd.exe: mklink /J share usr\share and all works.
Or use WSL or Cygwin64 Terminal: ln -s usr/share share
I am trying to install the openCV library for Python however I am new to CMake and have run into some trouble after having cloned the repository in ~/opencv.
I've made a build directory in it with the mkdir command however once inside it when trying to set CMake options in it.
cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local
I get prompted with the following error:
CMake Error: The source directory "/Users/eDen/opencv/build/CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local" does not exist.
It seems you aren't making the right directory, some Mac OS X installations doesn't include /usr/local/. You can make the directory using, if it's not already created, with:
sudo mkdir /usr/local/
But you say you want to use OpenCV with Python. I recommend you to obtain an already compiled copy unless you need some advanced features not available in the compiled version, like Qt integration or CUDA programming. But these features are included in the arguments of the cmake command.
Instructions on how to obtain OpenCV from Homebrew repository, this page explains the process. Basically, you install Homebrew, then Python, configure it and install some dependencies.
As Tsyvarev mentioned in the comments, you need to specify the path to source directory (i.e. where the main CMakeLists.txt file exists) at the end of your command. So, supposing you are now in the build directory, the final cmake command would be as follows:
cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local ..
I have the last argument as .. but still get the error.
In my case, there is a bad whitespace in the above arguments. So the last .. is ignored.
First, a little bit of background as to why I'm asking this question: Our product's daily build script (as run under Debian Linux by Jenkins), does roughly this:
Creates and enters a build environment using debootstrap and chroot
Checks out our codebase (including some 3rd party libraries) from SVN
Runs configure and make as necessary to build all of the code
Packages up the results into an install file that can be uploaded to our headless server boxes using our install tool.
This mostly works fine, but every so often (maybe one daily build out of 10), the part of the script that builds one of our third-party libraries will error out with an error like this one:
CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && /bin/bash
/root/software/3rdparty/libogg/missing autoconf
/root/software/3rdparty/libogg/missing: line 81: autoconf: command not found
WARNING: 'autoconf' is missing on your system.
You should only need it if you modified 'configure.ac',
or m4 files included by it.
The 'autoconf' program is part of the GNU Autoconf package:
<http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/>
It also requires GNU m4 and Perl in order to run:
<http://www.gnu.org/software/m4/>
<http://www.perl.org/>
make: *** [configure] Error 127
As far as I can tell, this happens occasionally because the timestamps of the files in the third-party library are different (e.g. off by a second or two from each other just due to the timing of when they were checked out from the SVN server during that particular build). That causes the configure script to think that it needs to auto-regenerate a file, so then it tries to call 'automake' to do so, and errors out because automake is not installed.
Of course the obvious thing to do here would be to install automake in the build environment, but the build environment is not one that I can easily modify (due to institutional reasons), so I'd like to avoid having to do that if possible. What I'd like to do instead is figure out how to get the configure scripts (which I can modify) to ignore the timestamps and just always do the basic build that they do when the timestamps are equal.
I tried to finesse the problem by manually running 'touch' on some files to force their timestamps to be the same, and that seemed to make the problem occur less often, but it still happens:
./configure --prefix="$PREFIX" --disable-shared --enable-static && \
touch config* aclocal* Makefile* && \
make clean && make install ) || Failure "libogg"
Can anyone familiar with how automake works supply some advice on how I might make the "configure" calls in our daily build work more reliably, without modifying the build environment?
You could try forcing SVN to use commit times on checkout on your Jenkins server. These commit times can also be set in SVN if they don't work out for some reason. You could use touch -d or touch -r instead of just touch to avoid race conditions there.
The problem:
I can't seem to install perl modules correctly, JSON-2.53 in particular.
I have done the following:
Searched for a similar problem and tried its solution - did not work.
perl ".../config.h, needed by `Makefile'" not working after OSX Lion upgrade
Installed XCode command line developer utilities (c compiler, make, etc)
Read version compatibility documentation on this particular perl module: http://metacpan.org/pod/JSON
Ran the following commands to make and install the desired perl module:
$perl Makefile.PL
Welcome to JSON (v.2.53)
If you install JSON::XS v.2.27, it makes JSON faster.
************************** CAUTION **************************
This is 'JSON version 2' and there are many differences *
to version 1.xx *
Please check your applications useing old version. *

Writing Makefile for JSON
(verified that the Makefile has been written)
$make
make: *** No rule to make target `/System/Library/Perl/5.12/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE/config.h', needed by `Makefile'. Stop.
What does that error even mean? What can I do to successfully make install this module?
Here are some additional items that may help you assist me in debugging this issue:
$which make
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/make
$which perl
/usr/bin/perl
$perl -v
This is perl 5, version 12, subversion 3 (v5.12.3) built for darwin-thread-multi-2level
I think you need to download and reinstall XCode. If I recall correctly for 10.7, after downloading Xcode from the app store it drops an installer into your Applications folder. You need to run it and try installing the command line tools again (from Xcode's prefernces pane). I know you mentioned you did this already, but a bit more background might explain why it's worth another try.
Here are the relevant lines in the Makefile from my Mac:
PERL_INC = /System/Library/Perl/5.12/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE
# Where is the Config information that we are using/depend on
CONFIGDEP = $(PERL_ARCHLIB)$(DFSEP)Config.pm $(PERL_INC)$(DFSEP)config.h
Later on in the Makefile CONFIGDEP is used as a dependency in a target. I believe in your case make is looking for /System/Library/Perl/5.12/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE/config.h and can't find it. The error you're seeing is make's obtuse way of saying file not found.
config.h contains specific information about the OS but is not needed for running scripts. It's only referenced when you want to compile a module. With stock OSX you get enough perl to execute scripts. Install XCode and you get the bits (like config.h) to do perl "development". I use quotes because you can write and run perl scripts without Xcode. But as you discovered, compiling a module requires the additional files Xcode provides. (Incidentally, RedHat does the same thing. You have to install the perl-devel package to get config.h. The perl runtime is in a separate package.)
Here are some things you can try:
Verify /System/Library/Perl/5.12/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE/config.h exists. If not, Xcode command line utilities were not installed properly. Try it again.
If config.h exists, check its content and make sure it looks sane. It's a C header file and consists of comments and #define statements.
If you don't have access to view config.h, you have a permission issue. Try using sudo make as a bypass. Disk Utility (found in Applications -> Utilities) might be able to permanently fix this.
You could risk changing the Makefile by removing "$(PERL_INC)$(DFSEP)config.h" from CONFIGDEP. I did this on my 10.8 Mac and it worked without issue (it passed all tests as well). However, if you don't find the root cause of your config.h issue, the next time you want to install a perl module you may find yourself right back where you started.
I had this exact same error, whilst this may not be a solution for you.... after reinstalling an updated xcode compatible with the OSX version (+rebooting after the install) I still had the error - to cut a long story short I noticed there was no config.h in /CORE/ after the error.....the solution that worked was to touch config.h and create the file first and then re-run the make. Hope this helps someone.
