./configure script does not work 'out-of-box' with 2.3.4 #40

Closed wrighton closed 9 months ago

wrighton commented 1 year ago

Hi, I've noticed that 'out-of-box' a download of 2.3.4, ./configure does not work.

It reports:

configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: error: cannot find input file: `src/Makefile.in'

For me, at least. Could this be fixed? (Maybe along with Mac ARM build support :-)

I have switched to use cmake build, works out fine with this PR

I think as workaround, you can use the bootsrapping script again (until a clean fix of course) $ config/bootstrap

I find 2 problems trying to build 2.3.4.

1) After Git clone of repo - I do not find 'configure' file. 2) Extracting from the tar or zip archives from Accellera website - I do find a 'configure' file. But configure fails as posted already by 'merkaG' on this thread ( cannot find '/src/Makefile.in' )

Is Cmake a workaround? Could someone (like chenruii333) post the steps to build using Cmake or using the bootstrap script?

1. After Git clone of repo - I do not find 'configure' file.

The Git repo is not suppose to have the configure script generated. As documented here: https://github.com/accellera-official/systemc/blob/master/INSTALL.md?plain=1#L343

2. Extracting from the tar or zip archives from Accellera website - I do find a 'configure' file.  But configure fails as posted already by 'merkaG' on this thread ( cannot find '/src/Makefile.in' )

My guess is that the zip archive might have been packaged incorrectly.

CMake build is not a workaround, but would recommend it over autotools going forward as it makes it easier to integrate with other C++ libraries.

Here is a snippet on how to build the library using cmake:

git clone https://github.com/accellera-official/systemc
cd systemc
mkdir build
cd build
# Configure build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="<Path to where you want to install the library>" ..
# Build the core library
make -j`nproc`
# Run tests to make sure the build is working
make check -j`nproc`
# Install the library at your prescribed path
make install

For more detailed configuration I would recommend reading the documentation here: https://github.com/accellera-official/systemc/blob/master/cmake/INSTALL_USING_CMAKE

Yes, I executed the /config/bootstrap script. And now have the missing file 'src/Makefile.in' But I cannot build using a 'build' or 'objdir' directory. However, I can build using 'configure' in the top level or root of my local Git repo.

git clone https://github.com/accellera-official/systemc

BTW, did not work for me. But this did work.

git clone https://github.com/accellera-official/systemc.git

No big deal - I recommend just copy the link in Github and clone.

cd systemc mkdir build cd build

Configure build

cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="" ..

Did not work. But building in the top level of the local Git repo did work.

Build the core library

make -jnproc

Run tests to make sure the build is working

make check -jnproc

Install the library at your prescribed path

make install


**The above 'make' commands work after configuration. 
I can build using either Cmake or 'configure'.   But not build into a local/temp folder.   I tested my build with some of my 
code - it worked fine.**

Hmm strange on what system are you trying to configure and build the system library on? Can you share the following version details: OS, GCC, Make, CMake, etc.?

Yes - here are some requested details

I don't see any issue as your system seems quite up-to-date. I am currently using Fedora 37 and Ubuntu 20.04/22.04 versions without any issues with systemc libraries built out of tree(dedicated build directories). I am not really sure if any of these tools/system libraries are broken for some reason in your environment.
