SystemC 2.0.1 configuration error on CentOS

[Vonn]

Hi guys , I am new to linux and systemC so forgive me if it's a trivial question
but I have a problem when I tried to configure systemC V2.0.1 on CentOS

I followed the install-file instructions but when I tried to config. I got the
following message:

creating cache ./config.cache

Plz advice

Thanx

systemc install

Maybe you can specify an architecture when (if) you run ./configure Try to run "./configure --help" and look for architecture spesific options.

systemc configure

Thanks Nevr0 , I tried what you said but the only architecture option I have found is related to Directory and file names ... here is what I got

../configure --help
Usage: configure [options] [host]
Options: [defaults in brackets after descriptions]
Configuration:
--cache-file=FILE cache test results in FILE
--help print this message
--no-create do not create output files
--quiet, --silent do not print `checking...' messages
--version print the version of autoconf that created configure
Directory and file names:
--prefix=PREFIX install architecture-independent files in PREFIX
[/usr/local]
--exec-prefix=EPREFIX install architecture-dependent files in EPREFIX
[same as prefix]
--bindir=DIR user executables in DIR [EPREFIX/bin]
--sbindir=DIR system admin executables in DIR [EPREFIX/sbin]
--libexecdir=DIR program executables in DIR [EPREFIX/libexec]
--datadir=DIR read-only architecture-independent data in DIR
[PREFIX/share]
--sysconfdir=DIR read-only single-machine data in DIR [PREFIX/etc]
--sharedstatedir=DIR modifiable architecture-independent data in DIR
[PREFIX/com]
--localstatedir=DIR modifiable single-machine data in DIR [PREFIX/var]
--libdir=DIR object code libraries in DIR [EPREFIX/lib]
--includedir=DIR C header files in DIR [PREFIX/include]
--oldincludedir=DIR C header files for non-gcc in DIR [/usr/include]
--infodir=DIR info documentation in DIR [PREFIX/info]
--mandir=DIR man documentation in DIR [PREFIX/man]
--srcdir=DIR find the sources in DIR [configure dir or ..]
--program-prefix=PREFIX prepend PREFIX to installed program names
--program-suffix=SUFFIX append SUFFIX to installed program names
--program-transform-name=PROGRAM
run sed PROGRAM on installed program names
Host type:
--build=BUILD configure for building on BUILD [BUILD=HOST]
--host=HOST configure for HOST [guessed]
--target=TARGET configure for TARGET [TARGET=HOST]
Features and packages:
--disable-FEATURE do not include FEATURE (same as --enable-FEATURE=no)
--enable-FEATURE[=ARG] include FEATURE [ARG=yes]
--with-PACKAGE[=ARG] use PACKAGE [ARG=yes]
--without-PACKAGE do not use PACKAGE (same as --with-PACKAGE=no)
--x-includes=DIR X include files are in DIR
--x-libraries=DIR X library files are in DIR

can any body give me a hand .. thanx

install systemc linux

Hi,

I am suggesting an alternative. But don't know whether it works. If it makes some wrong installation, nothing a big deal. Your systemC installation will be with some errors. Just uninstall as said in the INSTALL file.

The script works like this.
At a particular point it says 'uname -m'. if it is a 32 bit machine the output will be i686, if its a 64 bit machine it would be x86_64. The error is because of this x86_64.

Try doing "alias i686 'x86_64' " and then continue installation. It might work.

While installing your linux, did you used 32 bit Linux or you installed with 64 bit Linux ?

I'l try to find if there is any other possiblity to install systemc in 64bit machine.

 

[lchaniot]

systemc 64bit

This should work:

./configure --host=i686 --target=i686 --build=i686

If it doesn't, try this:

./configure --host=i386 --target=i386 --build=i386
