./configure $'\r': command not found

[K0rrid0r]

I've tried for hours now. I cant get it to work, or am I missing something? some extra lib?

Irsim is cloned into C:\cygwin64\usr\local\src from there i do ./configure

./configure --disable-usersubckt gives the same error as well

I have Magic working from the same method so i really don't understand this :)

I'm on Windows 8.1

I'm a bit weirded out by the comment about the dollar sign followed by the carriage return. It sounds like the "configure" script has got a break after the $ that shouldn't be there. Line 7 of "configure" should be

( CFLAGS="-g" ; export CFLAGS ; cd scripts ; ./configure "$@" )

all on one line.

Note that the only thing that this "configure" script in the top level source directory does is to invoke the configure script in the scripts/ directory, so you could just as easily cd to the scripts directory and run the configure script there. It will accomplish the same thing.

Line 7 in configure is what you wrote above

Invoking ./configure in: C:\cygwin64\usr\local\src\irsim\scripts

Shows a slightly different error

[RTimothyEdwards]

Seems like some kind of issue with DOS-style vs. UNIX-style carriage-return/linefeed characters?

I haven't used cygwin for a very long time. It was basically made obsolete by WSL. But on Windows 8.1 you don't have that choice.

[K0rrid0r]

hmm, that might be it.

i came a bit further when i converted configure to UNIX style in notepad++

maybe i should just convert all those files in scripts

converted config.sub also

converted all the files in scripts

4

adding the logfile also config.log

this seems to be the problem

i see im missing a few -maybe- essential gcc libs, im adding them and see if its works EDIT: damn that didnt help...

[K0rrid0r]

Right some update I managed to build irsim by replacing the configure file from the one in the magic directory.

only thing left now is this

strange because the file is there

[RTimothyEdwards]

The question here is whether there is such a file "/usr/local/lib/irsim/tcl/tclirsim.dll". The "make" process should have created the DLL file, and "(sudo) make install" should have installed it.

I would expect issues with just using magic's "configure" script, although they are very similar. You might want to try doing "cd scripts ; aclocal ; autoconf " to generate a new configure script, if nothing else seems to be working.

[K0rrid0r]

had to do the following

git clone git://opencircuitdesign.com/irsim

dos2unix the whole dir with: find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 dos2unix

create a new configure file with (thanks) aclocal ; autoconf

and finally cd to: usr\local\src\irsim
./configure --disable-usersubckt make make install

and i think its correct now, it looks like it at least?

(now i just need to learn how to combine it with magic etc)

[RTimothyEdwards]

Yes, that looks good. Also good do know that the build process still works with Cygwin. Thanks for writing down the instructions that get it all to work right.

more exact install note for win 8.1 requires 'wget' and 'dos2unix' from cygwin package install, if you want you can put these instaructions on the homepage.

launch the Xserver with startxwin

place the file in C:\cygwin64 wget http://opencircuitdesign.com/cygwin/archive/irsim_9_7_92.tgz tar xfz netgen_1_5_46.tgz

place the git clone in C:\cygwin64\usr\local\src git clone git://opencircuitdesign.com/irsim cd irsim find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 dos2unix cd scripts rename configure.in to configure.ac and remove the 'configure' file aclocal ; autoconf cd .. ./configure --disable-usersubckt make make install irsim

FTR, using git config --global core.autocrlf input might prevent the need for dos2unix.
