Hi,

 I am following the "build steps" mentioned in wiki page of ostinato.
i am running ostinato on win xp platform and would like to build and compile ostinato source code.
i couldnt get source code through mercurial, but i got source code from http://code.google.com/p/ostinato/downloads/detail?name=ostinato-src-0.4.1.tar.gz&can=2&q=.

Now ive protoc.exe , but in wiki page it asks to set CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH and LIBRARY_PATH environment variables to include the path to the header and library files of all the pre-requisites.
I didnt get this step. kindly help me to , how to set the path for those environment variables.

Also, when i run qmake i get " command not found"

i am running qmake from "/home/ostinato-0.4.1 path .



so, any suggestions to get rid of these 2 problems will be much appreciated.


Thanks in advance.

Rajath,

I feel you are tackling something beyond your current skill level - I
strongly urge you to take the help of a programmer friend or
colleague. In any case what you are attempting to do (reorder port
numbers based on how they appear physically on your box), I'm not sure
is possible to do since it depends on the Operating System.

If you are more comfortable with IDEs, you might want to use QtCreator
to build instead of the command line - see the "Using Qt Creator"
section in the BuildingFromSource wiki page for instructions.

Regards,
Srivats

Thanks for quick reply.

could you please let me know, how to proceed with this step:  to set CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH and LIBRARY_PATH environment variables to include the path to the header and library files of all the pre-requisites.


thanks in advance !

I also tried using the QTCreator, but building fails. :(

Hello,

Guess i solved the setting of Environment Path variables , CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH and LIBRARY_PATH.
when i run "qmake" , i dont get anything.

When i run "make" , i get an error as 

$ make install
make: *** No rule to make target `../../../../QtSDK/Desktop/Qt/4.7.3/mingw/mksp
cs/default/qmake.conf', needed by `Makefile'.  Stop.


any suggestions for this?

Include the full output of qmake and make. Attach the offending makefile

Also if you are using Linux/BSD some of the recent versions have QT4
qmake installed as qmake4 (to distinguish from QT3 qmake) - you might
want to research that also for your platform

In my case everything solved using qmake-qt4, instead just qmake
