Subject: Building an EPICS App for a Linux Target
From: Nab Rahman <[email protected]>

Hello,

I am currently using EPICS Base 3.14.12.6 with a linux x86_64 machine and am a relatively new user to EPICS. 

I want to run an EPICS Application as a Linux target instead of a VxWorks target and was told that the method to do 
so was to edit the "App/src/" directory's Makefile but not sure as to how to approach that task. 

How does a user add the support libraries needed for certain C code subroutines from their usr/include path? 
For example, I need to add the "types.h" header file. I notice there are flag statements (+=) in the makefile as follows: 

# Build the main IOC entry point where needed
example_SRCS_DEFAULT += exampleMain.cpp
example_SRCS_vxWorks += -nil-

# Link in the code from our support library
example_LIBS += exampleSupport

I suspect that if I can add the necessary support libraries, then my EPICS app and database will function correctly. 

Thanks for the help,
Nab Rahman
