Re: [Ekiga-devel-list] testing a modied ekiga at another machine

[Vineet Menon <mvineetmenon gmail com>]

Okay..I guess u got me wrong!!

So, lemme say that again,

What i was doing was this,

ON MAIN MACHINE

*******for ptlib***********

./configure

make

make install

*****for opal*****

./configure

make

make install

****** for ekiga******

./configure

make

make install

ON REMOTE MACHINE

*****copy files entirely including ptlib, opal and ekiga precompiled***

scp [main-machine-ip] [remote-machine-ip]

***ptlib***

/* since it was precompiled*/

make install                                              $$ could do that successfully$$$

**opal**

/* since it was precompiled*/

make install                                             $$ resulted in errors "unable to find ptlib"$$

Regards,

Vineet Menon

But the thing is why should i bother manually copying files???".so" ??
shouldn't the `make install` take care of it??

make install copies the files you have just compiled in the final directories.  It must be always used after make.

In your case, you want to copy files from one machine to another.  This works only if the two machines are more or less identical, with the same software etc., since programs depend on libraries (which need to be installed), configurations, even hardware sometimes.  On Windows too, simply copying word.exe to another machine does not work.

Hi,

I want to test a modified ekiga binary at another machine....
  1. I cannot simply run it at other end! since its asking for opallib.so
  2. I cannot even do a `make install`, since opal makefile is unable to
find the ptlib directory, when I already `make install`ed ptlib already.

So, is there any way to do this without doing the compilation of sources
again?? Or that's the only way to do that??

Are both machines identical (more or less)?  Also, donot forget to copy
also opal and ptlib libraries (.so).
