Installing Ptolemy 0.7.2 Under Linux

Below are notes about installing under Red Hat 8 in July, 2003 [and also Red Hat 9.0] from source files. You are probably better off using the subversion version and referring to the text below if you have problems.

Note that Ptolemy 0.7.2 requires gcc-2.95.3. You should download the pt0.7.2devel.gnu.tar.gz file and build gcc-2.95.3 from that tar file. Later versions of gcc will not work.

Check out the sources

          svn co https://repo.eecs.berkeley.edu/svn-anon/projects/chess/ptclassic/trunk/ptclassic

This will create a directory called ptclassic.

Download http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/~cxh/ptdevel/pt0.7.2devel.gnu.tar.gz and pt0.7.2devel.other.src.tar.gz

          user:   ptdevel
          password: ptrules

For example, to get it, use wget:

          wget --http-user=ptdevel --http-password=ptrules http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/~cxh/ptdevel/pt0.7.2devel.gnu.tar.gz
          wget --http-user=ptdevel --http-password=ptrules http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/~cxh/ptdevel/pt0.7.2devel.other.src.tar.gz

Then untar and move the gnu and tcltk sources into the ptclassic/ directory

          tar -zxf pt0.7.2devel.gnu.tar.gz 
          mv ptolemy/src/gnu/* ptclassic/src/gnu/
          tar -zxf pt0.7.2devel.other.src.tar.gz 
          mv ptolemy/src/tcltk/itcl3.0.1pt ptclassic/src/tcltk/itcl3.0.1
          mv ptolemy/src/tcltk/tcl8.0.5pt ptclassic/src/tcltk/tcl8.0.5
          mv ptolemy/src/tcltk/tk8.0.5pt ptclassic/src/tcltk/tk8.0.5

[Red Hat 9.0]: I am logged in as celaine. I have untarred the .tar.gz files in ~/ptclassic. Modify the instructions below accordingly.

Edit $PTOLEMY/.bashrc and change the setting for PTOLEMY to point to your directory, which will be something like /root/ptclassic.
[Debug version]: To compile the debug version, create $PTOLEMY/.bashrc and add the following instead:

            PTOLEMY=/root/ptolemy
            export PTOLEMY

            PTARCH=linux.debug
            export PTARCH

            PT_DEBUG=ptgdb
            export PT_DEBUG

            PATH=$PTOLEMY/bin:$PTOLEMY/bin.$PTARCH:$PTOLEMY/vendors/bin:$PATH

            # To use the X11 pxgraph, follow the instructions
            # in $PTOLEMY/src/pxgraph/README.txt and uncomment the next line.
            PT_USE_X11_PXGRAPH=yes
            export PT_USE_X11_PXGRAPH

          source /root/ptolemy/.bashrc

Start the compile:

          cd $PTOLEMY
          make bootstrap >& boot.out &
          tail -f boot.out

If you get messages like:

          mkdir /root/ptolemy/obj.linux.debug/gnu/gcc
          (cd /root/ptolemy/obj.linux.debug/gnu/gcc; \
          /root/ptolemy/src/gnu/src/gcc/configure --srcdir=/root/ptolemy/src/gnu/src/gcc \
          --prefix=/root/ptolemy/gnu/common --exec-prefix=/root/ptolemy/gnu/linux.debug \
          --with-gxx-include-dir=/root/ptolemy/gnu/common/include/g++-3 \
          --enable-shared)
          Configuring for a x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu host.

          Invalid configuration `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu': machine `x86_64-unknown' not recognized

then the problem is that config.guess could not determine your basic machine. One possible solution is to look in config.sub and find a machine close to your machine.
Another solution is to edit ptclassic/src/gnu/src/gcc/config.guess:

          echo "i386-pc-linux-gnu"
          exit

If you get

          ` if [ -f /home/cxh/src/ptclassic/obj.linux/gnu/gcc/gcc/../binutils/ar ] ; then echo /home/cxh/src/ptclassic/obj.linux/gnu/g\
          cc/gcc/../binutils/ar ; else if [ "i386-pc-linux-gnu" = "i386-pc-linux-gnu" ] ; then echo ar; else t='s,x,x,'; echo ar | sed -\
          e $t ; fi; fi` rc tmplibgcc2.a ${name}.o; \
          rm -f ${name}.o; \

If you get messages like:

          mkdir /root/ptolemy/gnu/common/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES
          /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 de.mo /root/ptolemy/gnu/common/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo

          cd $PTOLEMY/obj.linux/gnu/make/i18n

and restart:

          cd $PTOLEMY
          make bootstrap >& boot2.out &

[Debug version]: The directory name should be obj.linux.debug instead of gobj.linuxg.

While installing tcltk, I got:

          /root/ptolemy/src/tcltk/tcl8.0.5pt/unix/../generic/tclPosixStr.c: In function `
          Tcl_ErrnoId':

          he first entry for that value

The fix is to edit

 ~/ptolemy/src/tcltk/tcl8.0.5pt/generic/tclPosixStr.c

and comment out the EOPNOTSUPP in two locations This change is in the Subversion tree, so it should not be necessary.

          /*#ifdef EOPNOTSUPP
          case EOPNOTSUPP: return "EOPNOTSUPP";
          #endif
          */

and

          /*#ifdef EOPNOTSUPP
          case EOPNOTSUPP: return "operation not supported on socket";
          #endif*/

I then restarted with

          make install_tcltk

[Red Hat 9.0]: After making the above fix, I get:
```

              /home/celaine/ptclassic/ptolemy/src/tcltk/tk8.0.5pt/unix/tkAppInit.c:16:

              X11/Xlib.h: No such file or directory
            
```
The fix is to install XFree86-devel-4.3.0-2.i386.rpm from redhat.com, which will give you the necessary header files. You may also need to install other rpms in the dependency list, including gfontconfig-devel-2.1-9.i386.rpmg and gfreetype-devel-2.1.3-6.i386.rpmg. To reconfigure the build to detect /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.a, do:
```
              rm -rf obj.linux/tcltk/
            
```
[Debug version]: The directory name should be obj.linux.debug instead of gobj.linuxg. Rerun:
```
              make install_tcltk
            
```

Proceed with installing octtools:

              make install_octtools >& oct.out &

Proceed with the build

              make install >& install.out &

CGTarget fails to compile

              ../../../../src/domains/cg/kernel/CGTarget.cc:703: implicit declaration of func
              tion `int cuserid(...)'

This change is in the Subversion tree, so it should not be necessary.
>The change is to comment

                //msg   << "User:      " << cuserid(NULL) << "\n"

and use

                msg     << "User:      " << getlogin() << "\n"

vhdl/targets/SynthTarget.cc needs a similar change
This change is in the Subversion tree, so it should not be necessary.

                      //      comCode << "designer = \"" << cuserid(NULL) << "\"" << "\n";

                      comCode << "designer = \"" << getlogin() << "\"" << "\n";

As does SynthArchTarget.cc
This change is in the Subversion tree, so it should not be necessary.

acs/targets/StringArray.cc fails with

                            ../../../../src/domains/acs/targets/StringArray.cc:90: implicit declaration of function `int strcat(...)'

The fix is to add

                            #include <string.h>

This change is in the Subversion tree, so it should not be necessary.

acs/stars fails to link with

                                  ACSRamDelayFixSim.o(.data+0x0): multiple definition of `star_nm_ACSRamDelayFixSim'
                                  ACSRamDelayFixSim.o(.data+0x0): first defined here

The fix is to edit acs/stars/make.template and find the second instance of ACSRamDelayFixSim.pl and remove it and the remaining .pl files.
This change is in the Subversion tree, so it should not be necessary.

pxgraph fails to compile

The fix is to edit ptolemy/src/pxgraph/pxgraph/xgraph.h and comment out the declaration of strchr
This change is in the Subversion tree, so it should not be necessary.

Then run make install

Run a sample demo by doing

                                                cd $PTOLEMY
                                                ptiny src/domains/sdf/demo/butterfly

After the Ptolemy Welcome Window comes up, move the mouse over the model and type a capital R to run it.

When running a model that uses the Java version of pxgraph, the output is screwy. For example, the butterfly model results in in the 10^38 range. The problem here is with the binary data format of the Java version of pxgraph. The solution is to use the X11 version of pxgraph by doing:

                                                PT_USE_X11_PXGRAPH=yes
                                                export PT_USE_X11_PXGRAPH

(The sample .bashrc above has been adjusted accordingly)

[Red Hat 9.0]: If it complains that it cannot find ptiny, run make install in gobj.linux/pigiRpcg and then run
```
                                                    cd $PTOLEMY
                                                    make bin/pigi
                                                  
```
$PTOLEMY/bin/pigi is merely a symbolic link that from $PTOLEMY/bin/pigiEnv.sh.

[Red Hat 9.0]: I get the following message in the terminal window after clicking on "Go":
