Experimental Physics and
Industrial Control System

Hi,

Thanks to everyone who responded to my initial query on Linux builds.
Two of the responses did the trick.  I have succesfully built EPICS base
R3.13.1 on a Linux host for mv162 (68k) and mv2603 (ppc).  The host
builds are done with the gcc compiler.  I briefly tested the builds
using the exampleApp.

William Lupton reminded me to override general vxworks architecture
configuration in CONFIG.Vx with specific architecture configurations in
CONFIG.Vx.$(T_A).  The other piece of information came from Janet
Anderson.  I had to change the  WIND_HOST_TYPE from Linux to
i386-linux2.

The ppc build failed on the first pass.  The problem was in
base/src/rsrv/camessage.c.  The problem occured when using variable
length argument lists.  Our vxworks guru here at Fermilab suggested that
I put the vxworks header file first.  This solved the problem.
