depends which shell you are running

csh, tcsh:
make >& makedump.txt

bash:
make 2>&1 > makedump.txt

Could you run the following command at the top directory,

make >& makedump.txt

and send me the file.

Hi again. Yes, I have run make from the top, and after, tried running

it again from the child directory.

Assunto: Re: Help creating motorR6-9 examples

If you did not run "make" from the top level "motorR6-9" directory,

that could

be why you are getting these errors. The EPICS motor module, like

EPICS base and

most other EPICS modules, assumes that "make" is run 1st from the top

level

directory. After running 'make' from the top level you can make custom

changes

and taylor the module to your specific needs, but you should run make

from the

top 1st.

Hello Guilherme,

I am guessing that the SoftMotorSrc directory did not get built. If

you 'ls'

the SoftMotorSrc directory you should get this;

% ls motorApp/SoftMotorSrc

devSoftAux.cc  devSoft.cc  devSoft.h  devSoftMotor.dbd Makefile

O.Common

O.linux-x86_64

and there should be a 'devSoftMotor.dbd' file installed in the top 'dbd'
directory.

galadriel% ls dbd
ACRMotorSupport.dbd  devDeltaTau.dbd        devMclennanMotor.dbd
devNewport.dbd  devPIJena.dbd *devSoftMotor.dbd* MicronixSupport.dbd

devPIMotor.dbd      devSPiiPlus.dbd motorRecord.dbd      NoAsyn.dbd

devAerotech.dbd      devImsMotor.dbd        devMicroMo.dbd devOriel.dbd

devSmarActMCSMotor.dbd  devThorLabs.dbd motorSim.dbd

devAttocube.dbd      devKohzuMotor.dbd        devNewFocus.dbd
devPC6K.dbd      devSmartMotorMotor.dbd  HytecMotorDriver.dbd

What do you see in those two directories?

Hi!

I'm involved in a Project in which EPICS is to be used, and am

currently

trying to create a working example using a PI piezo controller.
I want some help doing this.
I've uncommented the lines

DIRS += motorExApp iocBoot
motorExApp_DEPEND_DIRS = motorApp
iocBoot_DEPEND_DIRS = motorExApp

from the top makefile. I've also uncommented the line "MOTOR=$(TOP)" in
configure/RELEASE file
Also, on the file motorApp/Makefile, I've got the lines

DIRS +=PIGCS2Src
PIGCS2Src_DEPEND_DIRS = MotorSrc

uncommented.

The problem is, when I run make on top, I get the following message:

[setup@localhost motorExApp]$ make
make -C ./NoAsyn install
make[1]: Entering directory
`/home/setup/Downloads/support/motor/motorR6-9/motorExApp/NoAsyn'

make[1]: Leaving directory
`/home/setup/Downloads/support/motor/motorR6-9/motorExApp/NoAsyn'

Then, I proceeded to add the mentioned line on

motorExApp/NoAsyn/Makefile:

#----------------------------------------
#
  ADD MACRO DEFINITIONS AFTER THIS LINE
#=============================

PROD_IOC_vxWorks = NoAsynVx

COMMONDBDS  = base.dbd
COMMONDBDS += motorRecord.dbd
COMMONDBDS += devSoftMotor.dbd
#!COMMONDBDS += devMXmotor.dbd

but when I run make again, after doing that, I get the following error:

I don't know where is this devSoftMotor.dbd being called, and why it

doesn't

have input arguments.

Could you help me, please?
Thanks,
Guilherme
