[Barrelfish-users] trace_defs.h error compiling latest release

[Georgios Varisteas]

Hi,

I had an issue with the latest release. Cloned afresh I got the following:

Generating x86_64/kernel/arch/x86/misc.o.depend
../src/include/trace/trace.h:65:42: fatal error: trace_definitions/trace_defs.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

I fixed the issue doing the following (../src/ is my source folder):
1. manually built pleco:
ghc -i../src/tools/pleco -odir  ./tools/tools/pleco -hidir  ./tools/tools/pleco -rtsopts=all --make  ../src/tools/pleco/Main.lhs -o  ./tools/bin/pleco $(LDFLAGS) -i../src/tools/fof

2. manually created <arch>/include/trace_definitions/ and <arch>/trace_definitions/ folders. Otherwise pleco aborted with:
pleco: ./x86_64/include/trace_definitions/trace_defs.h: openFile: does not exist (No such file or directory)

3. manually generate the missing files:
./tools/bin/pleco ../src/trace_definitions/trace_defs.pleco ./x86_64/include/trace_definitions/trace_defs.h ./x86_64/trace_definitions/trace_defs.json ./x86_64/trace_definitions/trace_defs.c

4. make normally

cheers,
Georgios
