"build" section in PKGBUILD files.

I've noticed that the build section for some programs are different from others, I assume this means that without that proper distinctive build part, the file won't compile and a package won't be made. So my question is how do you tell if a program needs an irregular build section? For instance,

mv $startdir/pkg/usr/lib/perl5/?.?.? $startdir/pkg/usr/lib/perl5/current
would be an irregular entry
I know there's some kind of regular build entry, but I can't find it.

If you run
# abs
as root, you'll get a template PKGBUILD:
/var/abs/PKGBUILD.proto
It has what could be called a regular build entry.

[Solved]Do you need just a PKGBUILD file to install an AUR app?

I've long wondered whether or not one needs to actually download a tarball in order to build a package from the AUR. Some people have posted here on the forum that all you need to do is download the PKGBUILD file and run "makepkg -i PKGBUILD."
I have tried this a few times but everytime I had to download the tarball or I got an error when I run "makepkg." IE, the last error I got was "(app name's) install file doesn't exist." Am I just fundamentally stupid or ignorant? I have looked at the wiki pages for the docs about the AUR and the "make your own packages" page as well as the makepkg page. I have yet to see where in those pages it says you can just use the PKGBUILD file alone.

Was this not clear enough?
Here's a neat trick: place the following in /etc/bash.bashrc (or ~/.bashrc, if you want) and then restart the terminal.
alias e='nano -x'
# For AUR packages
ia() {
cd ~/.builds
wget -q "https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/${1:0:2}/$1/$1.tar.gz"
tar xf "$1.tar.gz"
rm "$1.tar.gz"
cd $1
ls
alias m='makepkg -s'
alias I='sudo pacman -U'
alias Ii='sudo pacman -U *.xz'
Then, to install, say, bloboats you can just type:
$ ia bloboats
$ e PKGB[press Tab]
<see that it's all good and no "rm -rf /" anywhere (lol), which implies at least a basic understanding of how scripting works>
$ m
$ Ii
$ bloboats
Have fun.
PS: This method is better than using some AUR helper; at least you're aware of what you're installing. And with minimal typing.

"no manifiest section for signature file entry" when run the Jar file

I built an application by using JBuilder 8.0 and it works fine. But when I deploy it into a jar file, whenever I run it, the following exception appears:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.SecurityException: no manifiest section for signature file entry javax/security/cert/Certificate.class
at sun.securtiy.util.SignatureFileVerifier.verifySection
Because I didn't do anything about the security when build the application. I am really confused. Can somebody help?

I had a similiar problem using NetBeans. There must be a way to view the properties of your jar from Jbuilder and set its manifest. I am very new to this myself, but all I did was edit another manifest and copied into mine. Here is my example manifest:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Main-Class: J3Ed
The first line is the default line for a manifest. It is very simple and there is much more that could be added, but is not always necessary. I recommend reading the documentation :
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/Books/javaprogramming/JAR/basics/manifest.html
Also if you have an archiving utility such as powerarchiver or winzip, open your JAR and check to see that you have a MANIFEST.MF file. If you do then edit it where needed, if not create one and its relative location should be set to META-INF/MANIFEST.MF.
Hope this helps.

Making a PKGBUILD file for EQC (A LaTeX Equation Compiler)

Hi everyone,
Just yesterday I was searching in the web for some alternative to Mathcad (a useful program to make calculations the "engineering-way"), when I found this great software developed by Jan Rheinländer, which in essence, lets you do the same as Mathcad, but using Latex (very beautiful).
So I decided to make a PKGBUILD, so other people could install it easily. The problem is, that this is my first PKGBUILD file and I have been having problems making it to work.
Here is the code I have:
# PKGBUILD for EQC: Latex Equation Compiler

Can anyone help me a little please?

I copied the patch content verbatim from the parent post. I bypassed the checksum in PKGBUILD to get it to start compiling, but a proper solution would be appreiciated.
Also I get the following when compiling:

How do I tell FMS to only serve a section of a file using server-side ActionScript?

We have a bunch of mp3 files on our server and we'd like to serve only particular sections of particular files to users. For example, hello.mp3 might be four minutes long, but when user 1 tries to play it, he should only be able to play the section from 0:30 to 1:00, whereas user 2 should be able to play the whole thing.
I'm coming from a background using Wowza Media Server, where this is fairly easy to achieve: http://fmsguru.com/showtutorial.cfm?tutorialID=78.
Wowza doesn't require any change to the player (it doesn't call any special methods), so I'm looking for the same here.
I've been fiddling around with the main.asc file and the "Server-Side ActionScript" API to try and achieve something similar. In particular I've found the Stream.play method, which seems relevant. But I can't figure out how to attach a handler to a "play" event; all the examples I've seen only attach to Application.onConnect, which doesn't seem to include a connection to a particular file, which I need in order to determine the section that can be played.
So I'd like to do something along the lines of this (this is completely made up and doesn't follow any of the APIs; it's just an illustration of what I'm trying to achieve):
application.onConnect = function(client) {
   client.onPlay = function(stream) { // Client.onPlay doesn't exist; what should I do here?
       var section = getStreamSection(client, stream);
       stream.play(section.start, section.end);
var getStreamSection = function(client, stream) {
   return { start: 30, end: 60 }; // Return value is based on the user's credentials and the file they're trying to stream

You can find the documentation for Plug-ins here:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/plugin_apiref/index.html
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/devguide/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d11a0d662434 -7ff6PluginAPI.html
Basically you need to concentrate on E_PLAY event and two fields F_STREAM_LENGTH & F_STREAM_POSITION. I am pasting below some code which you need to paste in your sample Auth Plug-in which you can find in : <installdir>/samples/plug-ins. You would have paste below code in case E_PLAY section in MyFmsAuthorizeEvent::authorize() function and compile it. You would basically get AuthModule.dll which you need to place in modules/auth and restart FMS.
// Set the Stream to be played back only for 10 seconds starting from 10 th second
                              // Stream will play from 10th Second to 20th Second
                                 float fValue;
                              char buf[1024];
                              if (getFloatField(m_pAev, IFmsAuthEvent::F_STREAM_LENGTH, fValue))
                                        float fLength = fValue; // in seconds
                                        sprintf(buf,"Original Stream length value passed from player %f\n",fLength);
                m_pFmsAuthServerContext->log(buf, IFmsServerContext::kInformation, false);
                                        fLength=10.0;
                                        sprintf(buf,"Modifying Stream length value passed from player %f\n",fLength);

Preview Build Section gone from Windows Tech Preview

So, I noticed that after updating to Windows Tech Preview Build 9860, the preview build section is gone from my settings in zPC settings. Is this a glitch or did Microsoft temporally remove it? Thanks.

It's there, you're just not looking in the right place.
There are two settings Apps - PC Settings and zPC Settings.
Look in PC Settings, under
Update and recovery. The Preview builds section is there in build 9860.

A problem happened when building dimensions with Rule File

Hi All,
I was trying to build dimensions with the rule file. But it showed the error 1030100, which means "cannot open file".
I can load data with a data source (.txt). Thus, I assumed that it's a problem to open a rule file.
I don't think it's the problem about the rule files I wrote since I cannot even build dimensions with rule files in the Sample/Basic database.
Anyone knows how to solve the problem? Thanks for the help.
Best Regards,
Anderson

This path is referred to error message .... it will show the errors in that file...
and one more thing...
while adding data source to rule file it will ask you provide a path for the error message...there you can see this path...
Just check dataload.err file after running the rule file...
have you associated the out line to the rule file ???
is that rule file validate fine?
if not associate it and try...

Write a PKGBUILD file for a binary software

Hello for all ,I need write a PKGBUILD file for crate an arch-package of bmrt software .I dont understand to much the rules for write a PKGBUILD , but I imagina that is possible write a PKGBUILD file for a compiled software , I look for a document that explain in detail the reference for the sintax in the PKGBUILDS files,Any bode know that?

You might look at some of the examples that do this already, either in AUR or ABS.
Some examples:
various games
j2re
flash-plugin
opera
acroread
if you run the command 'abs' as root, you can find these PKGBUILDs in subdirectories of /var/abs. Hopefully you could adapt one of those to your binary program.

"build" section in PKGBUILD files.
