[Dmitry Utkin]

Hi,

Please show your commands you trying to compile Staff for PowerPC.

Hi,

I am trying to cross-compile Axis2C and wsf-staff for powerpc using an x86_64 Linux Box.

Step 1: Cross-compilation of Axis2C is successful and I am getting the desired libraries and binaries of powerpc.

Step 2: Cross-compilation of staff shows error " staff_codegen : cannot execute binary file" (during make).
I think while cross-compiling for PowerPC arch, it tries to run this staff_codegen on my x86_64 Linux Box which actually contains machine instruction of PowerPC arch.(Reason for this error according to me)

Also i cant make this staff on my power machine.
So can u please suggest a way or provide the compiled powerpc package of wsf-staff.

[Dmitry Utkin]

Please revert any changes in Staff Makefiles and try to compile it with this:

CC=ppcnf-mcp7-gcc CXX=ppcnf-mcp7-g++ make

Passing CC via environment has different behavior than passing it from make arguments.

If you need to pass additional flags like CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, LFLAGS or LDFLAGS, PATH or LD_LIBRARY_PATH, please use environment too, not the make arguments.

Did you forgot to do

make distclean

before building with new command line?

HI Sir,

I tried this and reverted the Makefile.env to original Makefile.env
CC=ppcnf-mcp7-gcc CXX=ppcnf-mcp7-g++ make

it shows this in verbose output

make -C staff make
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/arvikumj/webservices/devel/staff-read-only/staff'

and Now the error is

The reason behind substituting in Makefile.env these as CCHOST and CXXHOST

is that if I substitute there, then only it takes CC and CXX as ppcnf

make -C staff make

I did make distclean

[Dmitry Utkin]

Please attach full log of compilation with commands you enter as file (copy & paste from terminal).

Hi Sir

Can you please tell me the known steps of cross-compilation of wsf-staff by taking any arch as example.

[Dmitry Utkin]

To cross compile Staff for Android I use commands:

export TOOLCHAIN_PATH=/opt/android-8-toolchain
export PATH=$PATH:$TOOLCHAIN_PATH/bin/
export CC=$TOOLCHAIN_PATH/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gcc
export CXX=$TOOLCHAIN_PATH/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-g++
export STAFF_HOME=/data/local/staff
export AXIS2C_HOME=/data/local/axis2c
export HOST_AXIS2C_HOME=/usr/local/axis2c

Similar commands to compile it for linux-mips, raspberry-pi or beagle bone.

Hi,

export AXIS2C_HOME=/data/local/axis2c
export HOST_AXIS2C_HOME=/usr/local/axis2c

Can u please explain me what these two different location of axis2c contains? Is it like one will have the src files and one will have the cross-compiled files?

[Arvind Kumar]

Hi Dmitry,

I tried setting AXIS2C_HOME as path of powerpc compiled axis2c files.
and HOST_AXIS2C_HOME as path of host compiled axis2c files.

It worked well and I got the powerpc compiled files.

Thanks for the help.
I am grateful for your support.
