Re: [ace-users] Regarding Using Ace 6.0.4, Getting run time error, Please help.

[Douglas C. Schmidt]

hi Atul,

> I am new guy who is using ACE-6.0.4.

Thanks very much for your email. Please make sure to send all questions
related to ACE to the appropriate mailing list or newsgroup, rather than
to me directly since I travel frequently and often don't have ready
access to email. See

http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE-mail.html

for more info on how to access these resources.

In addition, to ensure that we have proper version/platform/compiler
information, please make sure you fill out the appropriate problem
report form (PRF), which is in

$ACE_ROOT/PROBLEM-REPORT-FORM
$TAO_ROOT/PROBLEM-REPORT-FORM

Make sure to include this information when asking any questions since
otherwise we have to "guess" what version/platform/compiler/options
you've using, which is very error-prone and slows down our
responsiveness. If you don't use the PRF, therefore, it is less likely
that someone from the core developer team will be able to answer your
question. Naturally, we encourage and appreciate other members of the
ACE, TAO, CIAO, and DAnCE user community who can respond to questions
that they have the answers to.

Don't use the configure stuff - it's experimental. Instead, follow the
instructions in

ACE_ROOT/ACE-INSTALL.html#aceinstall

I have no idea. Please note that the DOC group at Vanderbilt University
only provides "best effort" support for non-sponsors who are using the
latest release, as described in

http://www.dre.vanderbilt.edu/~schmidt/DOC_ROOT/ACE/docs/ACE-bug-process.html

Therefore, please make sure you are using ACE+TAO+CIAO+DAnCE x.1.6
(i.e., ACE 6.1.6, TAO 2.1.6, CIAO 1.6.1, and DAnCE 1.6.1), which you
can download from

http://download.dre.vanderbilt.edu

If you need more "predictable" help or need help for earlier versions
of ACE+TAO+CIAO+DAnCE please see

http://www.dre.vanderbilt.edu/support.html

for a list of companies that will provide you with ACE+TAO+CIAO+DAnCE
commercial support.

WindRiver has put an older version of ACE into their own linux distro
becuase it was mandatory for one of the other applications they ship. As
far as I know they did use configure, but that is something we don't
support at all.
