[omniORB] Make doesn't make "static" subdir under src/services/mklib at build directory.

[Zhu, Jiesong (Equity Trading)]

Everyone:
I'm trying to install omniORB 4.1.4 with build directory as:
/omniORB-4.1.4/build/x86-32.linux.2.6.gcc.3.4.6.prod/

by setting the prefix and execprefix to
"omniORB-4.1.4/build/x86-32.linux.2.6.gcc.3.4.6.prod" for configure.
At make, it didn't create the "static" subdirectory under
omniORB-4.1.4/build/x86-32.linux.2.6.gcc.3.4.6.prod/src/services/mklib
so that make failed at put the target obj there.

It is interesting that the make does create those static and share sub
directories at other places, like
"/omniORB-4.1.4/build/x86-32.linux.2.6.gcc.3.4.6.prod/src/lib/omniORB/dy
namic".

Please advise where I should look into.

Thanks ahead for help!

Jason

?omniORB-4.1.4/build/x86-32.linux.2.6.gcc.3.4.6.prod? for configure.
At make, it didn?t create the ?static? subdirectory under

so that make failed at put the target obj there.

What exactly are the steps you have performed, and what exactly went
wrong?

It sounds like you are trying to set the install path to the same as the
build path, which may well cause problems. You should set prefix to
somewhere other than the build tree. e.g.:

cd omniORB-4.1.4
mkdir build
cd build
../configure --prefix=/usr/local
make
make install


With those steps, it compiles all the static libraries fine.

Cheers,

Duncan.
