I followed the directions in ch03_compiler_tools.pod.html (noting the
change from tools/build to tools/dev). I can do the following (test
language ParR into directory parr):
j...@jay-beast:/usr/local/lib/parrot/2.3.0/languages/parr$ more README
Language 'ParR' was created with ../tools/dev/mk_language_shell.pl, r44549.
$ parrot setup.pir
$ parrot setup.pir test
j...@jay-beast:/usr/local/lib/parrot/2.3.0/languages/parr$ parrot setup.pir
Parrot revision r44549 required (currently r0)
j...@jay-beast:/usr/local/lib/parrot/2.3.0/languages/parr$ parrot setup.pir test
Parrot revision r44549 required (currently r0)
j...@jay-beast:/usr/local/lib/parrot/2.3.0/languages/parr$ ls
parr PARROT_REVISION parr.pir README setup.pir src t test.parr
Unfortunately, there is no makefile (and others seemed to have hit
this roadblock previously). I tried rerunning configure, make
install-dev, etc... and nothing changed. The closest I can to getting
a hint was in the parrotblog,
http://www.parrotblog.org/2008/03/targeting-parrot-vm.html, but even
those guesses seemed dated.
Could someone point me to any doc I may have missed? I must say, the
message about revisions, above, seems suspicious, and looking at
setup.pir I would hazard a guess that something needed wasn't
installed correctly, because surely the commands
.local pmc config
config = get_config()
$I0 = config['revision']
are returning 0 when something greater than 44539 was expected?
Thanks in advance, and apologies if I missed some step in the
configure/install. I'm happy to offer advice on the documentation, if
some clarification would help.
