On my Linux/CentOS 7 system, I had a few problems:
'make Pure' - no issues.
svn update - kept failing because it would find unversioned Makefiles
and an occassional unversioned directory. Kept removing those and
rerunning the update until no more failures.
./configure && make - failed the first time on the make. It
printed out the old help message:
---------------------------------------------------
UNIX: Run "make Configure name=system" or "make X-Configure name=system" or "make
build name=system"
where system is one of those in config/unix.
Windows (MSVC): Run "nmake NT-Configure" or "nmake W-Configure".
Windows (GCC): Run "make NT-Configure-GCC" or "make W-Configure-GCC".
Windows (both): Then add the Unicon bin directory to your path.
All: after configuration, run "make (or nmake) Unicon".
---------------------------------------------------
A quick showed that the main Makefile hadn't been updated.
Removed it, did an svn update on it and reran command.
./configure && make - (#2) no problems building icont, iconc, and unicon,
and most of the *.icn code through compiling webup.icn. Then:
---------------------------------------------------
make[3]: *** No rule to make target `event.u', needed by `all'. Stop.
make[3]: Leaving directory `/disk/opt/svn/unicon/unicon/uni/lib'
make[2]: *** [lib] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/disk/opt/svn/unicon/unicon/uni'
make[1]: *** [Unicon] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/disk/opt/svn/unicon/unicon'
make: *** [default] Error 2
-------------------------------------------------
There is a file 'event.u' in ipl/lib, but I can't figure out
why Makefile in uni/lib thinks event.u needs to be built as
it's not listed in UFILES!
help?
Thanks!
