Re: [MoM] Any progress?
Hi Andreas,
I passed the weekend experimenting with cmake-ifying fis-gtm:
https://github.com/luisibanez/fis-gtm/tree/cmakeified
This was driven by the observation that some of the problems
encountered with pbuilder are related to configuration issues, and
setup such as ensuring that a particular directory is in the include
search path before another one. (e.g. the use of the -I- flag...).
Here are the differences between "master" (the original fis-gtm)
and the partially cmake-ified version (so far):
https://github.com/luisibanez/fis-gtm/compare/master...cmakeified
Just to summarize the status and the big picture,
Current Status:
---------------------
Here are the two main issues that we have observed
A) Using pbuilder, the build fails when looking for a 32 bits header.
The culprit here seems to be the use of the -I- option.
Experiments, and conversation with fis-gtm developer showed
that "-iquote" is not a full replacement for "-I-", and that the quick
way to get through this obstacle is to copy the headers from the
platform-specific directory (sr_i386 or sr_x86_64) on top of the
files in sr_port directory (and maybe others too).
BTW: I manage to build locally by using "debuild", but in Andreas'
environment "debuild" fails. So, there may still be some lose cables
in the configuration and build process beyond what we are observing
with pbuilder.
B) In the Installation step, the ./pro/gtminstall file is not being found.
Here we are suspecting that the file has been removed, between
the time that it was created during the build stage, and the time
that we get to the installation stage.
Current paths of action:
---------------------------------
The exploration on cmake-ifying fis-gtm, was an alternative to solve (A),
or at least to get familiar enough with the fis-gtm configuration as to
move files around before the build process is triggered.
I'm keeping (B) on hold until I get some more progress on (A).
After what I learned with the cmake-ification exercise, I'm planning
on heading the way of copying the architecture specific directories
on top of the sr_port directory, or even better, copying all headers
(in the right order) into a temp directory and only put that directory
in the include search path. The trick here is to determine the proper
order to copy the files, so that the architecture specific files override
the generic ones.
All suggestions and advice are very welcome...
Thanks
Luis
