Home < Instructions to Build SPLOT

Create directory "splot-build"

  • Make this directory anywhere you want
  • This is the place all splot stuff and its dependent libs will sit

Build ACE

  • Move the compressed source code (e.g. ACE-5.5.tar.gz) to the directory "splot-build"
  • Unzip the source code and you will have this directory: ACE_wrappers
  • Set environment variable: ACE_ROOT. For instance, in .bash_profile, add
 ACE_ROOT=/home/hliu/projects/splot-build/ACE_wrappers
 export ACE_ROOT
  • Add ACE lib to environment variable: LD_LIBRARY_PATH. For instance, in .bash_profile, add
 LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ACE_ROOT/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
  • Create a configuration file, config.h, in $ACE_ROOT/ace. Config.h will contain only the following line:
 #include "ace/config-linux.h"

This file includes the appropriate platform/compiler-specific header configurations from the ACE source directory.

  • Create a build configuration file, platform_macros.GNU, in $ACE_ROOT/include/makeinclude. Platform_macros.GNU will contain only the following line:
 include $(ACE_ROOT)/include/makeinclude/platform_linux.GNU

This file contains the compiler and Makefile directives that are platform/compiler-specific.

  • Run "make" in the ACE_ROOT directory

The compiling failed in building $ACE_ROOT/ACEXML/examples/SAXPrint. But the ACE libraries are already built in $ACE_ROOT/lib.

Build xerces

the directory "splot-build"

  • Set environmental variable in .bash_profile:
 XERCESCROOT=/home/liu/projects/splot-build/xerces-c-src_2_7_0
 export XERCESCROOT
  • Run autoconf
 cd $XERCESCROOT/src/xercesc
 autoconf
  • In the same directory,
 ./configrue
 make
  • You will see libraries built in $XERCESCROOT/lib
