Running DeVIDE on linux (centos 5.3) 64bit

[Simon Su]

Hello All,


On the linux 64bit version I have expat 1.95.8 installed (please see
below). But it is ./dre devide is looking for libexpat.so.1. Can I
just create a link from libexpat.so.0 to libexpat.so.1?

Thank you
Simon

Could you try unpacking the attachment into devide/wx/lib and startup
devide again? It comes from my x86_64 ubuntu 8.04 system.

It's quite hard building binaries that work on all Linux systems (this
was built on Ubuntu 8.04 LTS). If the fix above does not work and
there's a high probability, let me know. It might be time to try a
build from source. :) We have a nice script that'll do that for you.

Good luck,
Charl

Dear Charl,

Yes it is. I think now we have different gcc version issues.

ImportError: /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.9' not found (required by /home/one/apps/DeVIDE/devide-re-v9.8.3784-lin64/wx/lib/libwx_baseu-2.8.so.0)

I have

[one@vis devide-re-v9.8.3784-lin64]$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: x86_64-redhat-linux
Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --enable-checking=release --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit --disable-libunwind-exceptions --enable-libgcj-multifile --enable-languages=c,c++,objc,obj-c++,java,fortran,ada --enable-java-awt=gtk --disable-dssi --enable-plugin --with-java-home=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.4.2-gcj-1.4.2.0/jre --with-cpu=generic --host=x86_64-redhat-linux
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-44)


installed.


I will try to build from source then. No need to worry about this. If we can get either windows or linux version running, that will do for the meeting next week.

On compiling from source, can you point me the right way?

Thank you,
Simon

Yes, try this:
http://code.google.com/p/devide/wiki/Downloads?tm=2 in the section
"building your own from source"

In the referenced readme
http://code.google.com/p/devide/source/browse/branches/v9-8/johannes/README.txt
first make sure you have the mentioned dependencies installed, then
follow the 4 steps under A (normal build).

Good luck!
Charl
