Missing NT Tools that Tycho uses

August, 2005

• Linking pigiRpc fails:

  All of the failing files include <complex.h>?

  The solution was to modify the hinclude{} directive and not include <complex.h>

• Start up fails:

  Error: No such domain: SDF
  Error: No domains can be located by Ptolemy; something is wrong with your
  installation of either Ptolemy (no domains were included, perhaps?) or
  of your C++ compiler and linker (if global constructors aren't being called
  properly, we also get this symptom).  Exiting...
  

  This message is produced by kernel/KnownBlock.cc when the number of domains is 0.

  The problem was that sdfstars.c was empty because bin/genStarTable had a bug.

Installing cygwin32 and X11R6.3

1. Download and install Cygnus GNU-win32 from ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/gnu-win32/latest.
2. Download Pre-compiled X11R6.3 Libraries/Clients For GNU Win32 B19 .
3. Install X11R6.3:

   mkdir /usr
   cd /usr
   tar -zxf b19_X11R6_3.tar.gz
   

4. Add c:\usr\X11R6.3\bin to your path by using the System control panel.
5. Verify that the X installation is working by starting up an X server setting your DISPLAY:

   DISPLAY=localhost:0.0
   

   and then running /usr/X11R6.3/bin/xclock.

Building Ptolemy

1. Set up your environment by setting the variables below. In the Start menu, select Settings, then Control Panels, then System, then select the Environment tab

   PTARCH nt4
   PTOLEMY /users/ptolemy
   CC gcc
   

2. If you have Samba setup, then start up bash and cd to the tree with something like:

   mkdir /users/ptolemy
   mount -b //UnixHost/ptolemy /users/ptolemy
   cd $PTOLEMY
   

   (The -b option says that text files are equivalent to binary files)

   Now you have three ways to get to the sources using Samba:

   1. Mount a Ptolemy tree located on Unix machine with the Run Start menu choice. T
   2. cd to the UNC, such as cd //carson/ptdesign
   3. cd to the Cygwin mount point: cd /users/ptolemy

   Note that you can set PTOLEMY to the raw UNC format //UnixHost/ptolemy, but if you do, you will have problems with configuring Itcl. Instead use the mount command as above.

3. Building Itcl2.2:
   Download Itcl2.2 from http://www.tcltk.com
   In the System control panel, set the CC environment variable to gcc. If you don't then you will get errors while configuring.

    configure --enable-gcc --disable-load --host=i586-CYGWIN32-NT40
    

   If tclEnv.c fails to compile with messages about environ, then edit tcl7.6/generic/tclPort.h. Change:

    #if defined(__WIN32__) || defined(_WIN32)
    

   to

    #if (defined(__WIN32__) || defined(_WIN32)) && !defined(__CYGWIN32__)
    

   The above change also needs to be made to tk4.2/generic/tkPort.h and tk4.2/generic/default.h
   tclUnixTime.c fails to compile with messages about timezone.
   My fix was to edit tcl7.6/unix/Makefile and change -DHAVE_TIMEZONE_VAR to -DHAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY. The real fix was to modify configure.in so that we run the timezone code instead of just compiling it.
   Messages at link time about multiple definitions of -lc
   Fixed by editing tcl7.6/unix/Makefile and commenting out -lc
   unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: mkinfo() does not exist.

       if (/*mkfifo(dst, srcStatBuf.st_mode)*/ -1 < 0) {
    

   Run make, then make install
4. Building vem:
   oct/internal.h - cygwin32: errno is actually a function, so we adjust the sys_msg() macro accordingly
   iv/iv.c - Fixes for HUGE
   rpc/appRPC.c - cygwin32 does not define SIOCSPGRP
5. Building Ptolemy: Fixed pragma implementation/interface problems when linking ptcl. It looks like the g++ shipped with Cygwin32 is much more picky about pragma interface.
   The following symbol was not present in miscFuncs.o

   inline Attribute operator | (const Attribute& a, const Attribute& b) {
   

   The problem was that Attribute.h had:

   #pragma interface
   

   it needed to be changed to:

   #pragma interface "Attribute.h"
   

   to better match the

   #pragma implementation "Attribute.h"
   

   in miscFuncs.cc
6. Unfortunately, Samba and Cygwin32 have problems with mixed case file names. pigilib contained POct.h, poct.h, PVem.h, pvem.h PTcl.h and ptcl.h. The C preprocessor was going into infinite recursion.
   The fix was to fold the lower case .h files into the .cc files that included them.
7. Binaries under NT end with .exe, so the make.template files in rman-*, tkman-*, optfir and wfir needed to be modified.
8. At link time, we were getting an undefined symbol from de/kernel/Resource.cc. The following code in Resource.h was present, but the symbol could not be found.

        ResLLCell( DERCEvent* e, double time, int prio) 
             : event(e), ECT(time), priority(prio) {}
   

   My fix was to move the body of the method into Resource.cc
9. Error during linking of pigiRpc.ptiny

   ld.exe: final link failed: Permission denied
   

   The following command can be used to debug

   make LINKER="g++ -v -Wl,--trace,--verbose" pigiRpc.ptiny
   

10. sdf/dfm and SR do not compile

    
    g++ -Wall -Wsynth -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -g -DPTNT -DPT_NO_TIMER \
    -DUSE_DIRENT_H -DNO_SYS_SIGLIST -DPT_ERRNO_IS_A_FUNCTION \

    	`typedef float FLOAT' redeclared as different kind of symbol
    
    ../../../../../src/kernel/dataType.h:48: previous declaration of
    	`const char * const FLOAT'
    

    The problem here is that Cygwin32 Windows32/Base.h has the line:

    typedef float FLOAT;
    

    ptolemy/src/kernel/dataType.h has

    const char * const FLOAT;
    

    This comes up because we are including itcl.h:

    #if defined(__WIN32__)
    #   define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN
    #   include 
    #   undef WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN
    
    

Running Ptolemy

1. Ported bin/pigiEnv.csh to Bourne Shell, creating bin/pigiEnv.sh. One issue was that xrdb was failing because it could not find cpp. I hacked up some code that does the right thing:

       xrdb="xrdb -cpp `gcc --print-prog-name cpp| sed 's@\\\@/@g`" 
   

2. Vem error message upon startup:

   Cannot find technology for cell init.pal:schematic:contents:
    Unexpected internal error in function tapGetFacetIdFromObj:
   Cannot open $PTOLEMY/lib/colors/ptolemy/tap.views
   Either technology "ptolemy" does not exist or viewtype "schematic" is wrong.
   

   The message comes from vem/patterns/tech.c

   vemMsg(MSG_A, "Error detected in %s:\nCannot find technology for cell %s:%s:%s:\n  %s\n",
   

   mounting with the -b option helped here.
3. Messages while starting:

   RPC Error: can not fdopen for write in application
   RPC Error: cannot connect to the server
   

   This error comes from Xpackages/rpc/appNet.c:

   
   (void) fprintf(stderr, "RPC Error: can not fdopen for write in application\n");
   

   I was able to start vem under Unix and then connect to NT and replicate this error, so it must be on the pigiRpc side under NT. After the error errno is set to 9

   #define	EBADF	9	/* Bad file number			*/
   

   The Microsoft VC++ manual says:

   EBADF Bad file number. There are two possible causes: 1) The specified file handle is not a valid file-handle value or does not refer to an open file. 2) An attempt was made to write to a file or device opened only for read-only access.

   The eventual fix was to upgrade to Cygwinb19.1, which has a fix for fdopen. Below is some info about sockets

   Socket resources

   Socket FAQ
   alt-winsock-faq
   The Windows Socket Network Programming book has a section on porting.
   Winsock Programmer's Faq
   www.sockets.com
   Microsoft winsock info says:

   In UNIX, all handles, including socket handles, are small, non- negative integers, and some applications make assumptions that this will be true. Windows Sockets handles have no restrictions, other than that the value INVALID_SOCKET is not a valid socket. Socket handles may take any value in the range 0 to INVALID_SOCKET-1.

   Good review in:

   Subject: Re: Porting sockets app from UNIX to NT From: tannenba@cs.wisc.edu (Todd Tannenbaum) Date: 1997/10/17 Message-ID: <626esq$1k4c$1@news.doit.wisc.edu> Newsgroups: comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.tools.winsock

   To start vem under Unix and connect to NT, do the following Install the rshsvc package from the NT Resource Kit CD. Look in rktools.hlp in the Resource Kit. Note that if you change the .rhosts file, you need to stop and restart the rshsvc. Note that rshsvc is insecure as hell, and should not be left on. Apparently when you rsh in you automatically have adminstrator privileges. Be sure that you can rsh from Unix to NT. Start up pigi under Unix In the window containing the icons type :kill-application :rpc-reset To start up the remote side under NT, you will need a .bat file that in turn calls a hacked up .sh file. \\unixhost\ptolemy\tmp\t.bat contains: sh /users/ptolemy/tmp/nt.sh %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 \\unixhost\\ptolemy\tmp\nt.sh is mounted as /unixhost/ptolemy/tmp/nt.sh.

   Comes from a line in vem/rpc/server.c that checks to see if we got a RPC_ABORT

Rebuilding

1. Under Unix,

   setenv PTARCH nt4
   cd $PTOLEMY; MAKEARCH
   

Feb, 1998

There are a number of limitations involving names with white space and samba. Also, /bin/sh needs to be present, which requires either cygwin32 or MKS.

Another idea is to compile Vem and Octtools under NT with X11

Jan, 1998

We are getting more and more NT boxes into our local cluster so we are still interested in the NT port

I recently installed egcs-1.0 under Solaris, so I was able to fix a number of bugs that were causing problems with the Cygnus cygwin-32 compiler that we use under NT. (egcs and cygwin-32 are based on a similar set of sources)

The big stumbling block right now is the lack of a gui. We are working on building something with Tycho, but it is still a ways away. The next Ptolemy release, 0.7.1 due out in the summer will have what ever NT support we have completed. However, I doubt if it will be particularly stable. BTW - We have not yet announced 0.7.1, so please don't discuss it on ptolemy-hackers :-)

We are dropping support of SunOS4.1.3, and I hope to support NT in its place.

Aug, 1997

1. configure --enable-gcc --disable-load
2. edit generic/TclPort.h and comment out the _WIN32_ body
3. generic/tclInt.h: include tclUnixPort.h after tcl.h
4. generic/tclIOSock.h:

   #define SO_SNDBUF 0x1001
   #define SO_RCVBUF 0x1002
   

   including mywinsock.h results in lots of duplicate symbols and definitions.
5. unix/tclUnixSock.c:Tcl_GetHostName():

   	#define NO_UNAME
   

6. tclUnixFCmd.c: mkfifo() not found at link time: return TCL_ERROR if that code is called.
7. Makefile: comment out -lc n LIBS rule
8. tcl8.0b2/unix/tclUnixChan.c: TclGetDefaultStdChannel(): comment out lseek calls that lseek on stdin, stdout and stderr.

1. I don't think that the ptcl process can spawn subprocesses.
2. This is DE only, SDF will not compile without further modifications, cygwin b18 fails because of some casting issues
3. While compiling, there are lots of warnings about src/kernel/PortHole.h:221: warning base class `class NamedObjList' has a non-virtual destructor.

Changes to Ptolemy

	#ifdef PT_NT4VC
	#define strcasecmp(a,b) strcmp((a),(b))

June, 1997

I was able to compile the kernel, the SDF and DE kernel, all the DE stars and most of the basic SDF stars.

My previous effort had used cygwin17.1beta as a compiler, this time I used cygwin18beta. cygwin18beta now comes with tcl/tk for use with a graphical gdb interface. Since I was having problems linking with tcl/tk, I thought it would be worth giving this a shot.

Unfortunately, I'm still having problems here, ld is saying that tcl76.dll is not a recognized file. I think that I need to mess around with creating a libtcl76.a file. I found some instructions that might help.

However, I'm still having problems linking with tcl. Also, the version of gcc that comes with cygwin18beta is much pickier than the vanilla gcc-2.7.2, so there are lots of warnings.
