Running Xcode without install(from source control)

I am managing a build lab and have several products/branches to provide service to and I would like my build machines not to be specialized to any one product/branch.
The scenario I would like to have is that souce and all tools needed to build it are checked into source control and just sync and build with some prep/env setup before hand via script.
This is very doable with Visual Studio and many other tools. Is it possible with Xcode? Has anyone gotten a scenario like this to work?
Thanks in advance for any help/answers.

Does this snippet from the readme shed light...
Installation
The Xcode and iOS SDK installer provides several options for configuring the installation from the “Customize...” button:
•          Essentials: contains all required components of Xcode, installed by default in / Developer or another directory of your choice, including external volumes.
Xcode Toolset: installs the core Xcode IDE, the Mac OS X SDKs, and many other developer tools. This is a required package and cannot be un-selected.
iOS SDK: contains the iOS frameworks, tools, and iOS Simulator. If you do not agree to the iOS license agreement, this package will be unavailable. If un- selected, Xcode will install with only the Mac OS X SDKs.
•          System Tools: installs system-level tools for performance analysis, and for system monitoring from within the Instruments application.
•          UNIX Development: command-line tools such as compilers, linkers, and build tools. The components are always placed in /usr with only one version installed at a time.
•          Documentation: checked by default, Xcode will download developer documentation in the background for offline reading, and automatically download documentation updates as well. If unchecked, the documentation will be read from the web instead of the local disk. The download setting can be changed after install via Preferences.
Throughout this document <Xcode> refers to the path in which the Developer Tools Essentials components are installed, which defaults to /Developer. You can have multiple
versions of the Xcode toolset installed. You can move or rename the <Xcode> directory, but must not alter its internal structure.
NOTE: Only one version of the System Tools and the UNIX Development components can be installed on a computer at a time. The last installed set of these components replaces any previously installed set.

Is installing from AUR similar to install from source?

I wonder if installing applications from AUR is similar to installing from source? Recently I have a problem where Eclipse SWT embeded browser is broken and 1 solution is installing firefox from source. So I wonder if installing from AUR is similar as installing from source?
StackOverflow question about broken SWT Browser

You may also be interested in ABS. ABS is the official build system for Arch. Things supported by Developers go into Core and Extra, things supported by trusted users go into community. To get the packages for the extra (which is where firefox lives), install and run (as root) abs. Then the build stuff for firefox will live at /var/abs/extra/firefox
ewaller@odin:/var/abs/extra/firefox 1021 %ls
firefox.desktop firefox.install firefox-install-dir.patch libvpx.patch mozconfig PKGBUILD vendor.js
Looking at the PKGBUILD, that package does compile from source. Copy the directory to a user directory, enter that directory, and you can build your own copy with makepkg. You can then install the package with pacman -U
If you need to change something, change the files in your local copy.
This is not that tough, but it is most definitively not a project for a beginner. The documentation you need is out there, you will need to do your research.

Robo HTML 9 will not open our project from Source Control after initial start.

We have a project in version control that we have been using forever, since 2003 or so and many versions of RH. Now that we have upgraded to 9, this project will open the first time in version control and work normally. Once you close the project and attempt to reopen from the starter screen, it opens just great, just not in version control. The files are still set to read only. I have done this several times and the only way i can work on my project in version control is to act like i am opening a project from scratch, then it needs to overwrite all of my local files with the server files. It would not be so bad but I am 3000 miles away from the server and 13 hops plus a slow firewall on the other end. While this has never been a problem in the past it is a big problem because it takes hours for all the files to download and overwrite my local files.
This only happens with RH9 and Version Control 3.1. RH8 works no problem. So, I don't know if this is a RH9 starter problem or a Source Control Problem. Maybe I will make a similar thread in the RH area. I'll wait to see if I get any useful hits from this one first.
It is very strange, I had RH9 open for several days because I was afraid to close the project for this reason and yesterday I published for the month so the heat is less right now but today, it opened with no source control. If I go to Source Control the only thing i can select is put project in source control. That is how it got into source control after converting to RH9.
We have another project that seems to open from version control normally but we can only save topics in HTML view. No useful answers to that topic after a week.
Got any ideas???
I have tried different folder names, different paths, etc.
Thanks,
dv

Ok, here is a wierd one, I used the add to version control icon in the menu bar, It already knew the path so I figured I'm the only one who has been editing these files for the past few days so I clicked add to version control. It added it. I closed and reopeded and still had the same files checked out. Closed, checked in all, then reopened and it is working in SourceControl. Strange that after opening from source control and closing that you need to reopen and tell it to put the project into source control. Obviously some flag is not getting set somewhere. This might help others having problems reopening source control files.

Cannot get project to open from Source Control

When trying to open project from Source Control, it times out (at Loading Index). After numerous tries, I'll get cpd file corrupt and I follow the steps (delete file and try again); sometimes I get very strange error messages.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem so I can open a good copy of the Source Control project on my desktop?

Hi,
What version/flavour of RoboHelp are you using?
What source control client are you using? Are you using the RoboSource control on a 64 bit system? If so, you need to update RoboSource control: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/917/cpsid_91739.html. Note that this fix is for RoboHelp 9.

Tkinter with X without installing from fink

how can I use tkinter with X without install it from fink? I don't want change my current python setup and I already have tkinter installed but it runs only in cocoa mode. is there any easy solution for this problem?

{quote:title=noname242 wrote:}
thanks. I've read that post and it ends up with a fink install of python. But fink will break a bunch of other python specific installs, numpy and scipy and my current 2.6 python setup. Besides, I don't really like all of the extra packages that fink tries to install. Isn't some way around this?
{quote}
Fink most certainly will NOT do that.
The worst it will do is put /sw/bin/python at the head of the path, before /usr/bin/python
Just do something like this:
alias python=/usr/bin/python
alias pythonx=/sw/bin/python
or whatever else you need, or don't source /sw/bin/init.sh unless you need what fink has.
Fink will install tcl, tk as dependencies, since you need these for the X11 version.
Otherwise, just download the X11-competent version of the source code and compile it yourself. You'll still need X11 versions of tcl and tk.

[SOLVED} How to install from source

Hi,
I'm trying to install Wittfella's qtfm from source and I have no idea how to do it. Previously I've used ./configure and make install.
What is the install process for Arch?

This http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_Helpers
If you look into PKGBUILDs you see the good old './configure && make install' but by using pacman you don't have to worry about dependencies and if you remove the installed app, it gets removed all the way, no garbage left behind.

Adding a Weblogic Portal from source control

I am using Weblogic Portal 10.3.2 and Eclipse 3.5.0. I can successfully create the EAR and portal projects, deploy them, etc. No problem. If I try to copy the projects to another computer or check them into a source control system and check them out on another computer I get the
"Portal Application Services web application should be associated with a Portal Application Services EAR for proper deployment"
and
"A WebLogic Portal web application project should be added as a J2EE module to a WebLogic Portal EAR project for proper deployment" error messages.
I did a directory comparison between a portal project that does work and one that doesn't; they are identical. The only thing I can think of is the ".metadata" directory is different, but this is huge, 1000s of files, over 100 MB.
Has anyone seen this? Any idea of what the problem may be?

Hi
The reason for this error is most probably the portalEAR project is not associated wtih the portalWeb project. For any portal application, we must have a portalEAR and a portalWeb project and portalWeb project should be associated with that portalEAR project.
For your existing and original working portal application, check the .project file in textpad located at: ...\user_projects\workspaces\Your_Workspace\yourPortalEAR\.project. The top contents will be like this:
<name>myPortalEAR</name>
<comment></comment>
<projects>
<project>myPortalWeb</project>
</projects>Once you checked out and added them to the new machine and new workspace, check the same file. If not, after importing from CVS or source control, open both portalEAR and portalWAR in Workshop IDE. Select your portalEAR, right click mouse -> Select Properties -> From properties window on left side, select J2EE Module Dependencies and on right side check the check box corresponding to the portalWeb module. NOW you may need to do this everytime.
Usually this is what I do, if I want other team members to get my portalApplication (EAR, WAR and DataSync project) or to check into source control. I DO NOT check-in or Export individual modules. Instead I Export them as single Archive File.
From Workshop IDE, on left side right click -> Export -> From Export Window, Expand General -> Archive File -> Click on Next. In this window, select all the 3 projects on top left window ie. EAR, WAR and DataSync (if you have one). Then give a valid filename for this ZIP file something like myPortalEARZip.zip etc. Then click on Finish. This will create a big single ZIP file. NOW you can checkin this ZIP file or give to other team members.
Now other team members will open Workshop IDE. Left side rigjht click mouse, select Import -> From Import Window, Expand General -> Existing Projects Into Workspace -> Click Next -> Select the radio button named Select Archive File and hit Browse and choose the above .zip file. It should list out the exising projects from this zip file. NOW mostly you may have to delete the exising same projects from this Workspace before you Import. Then follow the steps and you should get all the projects into your workspace. Do clean build etc.
There may be some other simpler approach, but usually I follow the above proceedure. If you want to continue your existing procedure, then manually link portalEAR with portalWeb project.

MBP Still running slow after install from scratch

I have a 13-inch, Early 2011 macbook pro. 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5. 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3. It was running very slowly for a few months. Did a disk verify and found the hard drive was corrupt. I did a completely fresh install from scratch and upgraded to 10.9.1. (still running 10.9.1). I did not bring over any of the files or apps from the old system. Wanted to start from scratch.
The problem: It is still slow as heck. I mean, I will click on a folder, it will beach ball for a 3 seconds, then open the folder (for example). It is almost unusable. I just used the disk utility again and checked the hard drive and permissions and no issues were found. Anything else I can try or should I sell and buy something new? I really need to be productive on this machine and this is killing it... Help!

Your machine should be fine once it's fixed. This isn't a processor problem. Either the hard drive is bad as a brody suggested, or the SATA cable that connects it to the motherboard is bad. A way to test this is to move the hard drive to an external enclosure and boot it from there. If it runs better, it's the SATA cable.

How can I add a Website Project in a solution that should be excluded from source control?

Using VS 2013 update 4
I currently have a solution with a couple of Class Library Projects and Web Application Projects and all of these are bound to a source control (VS Online). Now I added an Existing Website Project in the same solution by choosing a Local IIS instance. However,
I don't want this Website Project to be in source control.
I have tried File > Source Control > Advanced > Change Source Control ... and then clicked on the website project and then clicked Unbind. By doing this, it seems that the project was unbound. However, as soon as I close the solution it asks me
to save the .sln file and seems that it restored the Scc*** info in the file.
I also tried editing the .sln file and set the SccProjectEnlistmentChoice* = 0 (of the website project, under GlobalSection) and then set the ProjectSection of the WebsiteProject to
SccProjectName = ""
SccAuxPath = ""
SccLocalPath = ""
SccProvider = ""
instead of "SAK". This actually worked for me but everytime I open the solution, Visual Studio alerts an error saying "Unspecified error". This is the closest I got into solving this.
Is there a proper way of doing this? I think the proper way should be the "Unbind" method but it seems that it's not working as expected.
Let me know of other solutions.
Cheers!

Man Pages when installing from source

Hello,
Whenever I can, I prefer to install applications by source following the steps:
1. sudo ./configures --prefix=/usr/local/app-name
2. sudo make
3. sudo make install
Everything runs fine (the only difference is the prefix parameter), but the applications is not automatically added to the PATH.
If the app should be available to all users I create a symbolic link in /usr/bin pointing to /usr/local/app-name/bin. If it is just for a single user, I added the location to .bash_profile file of the user.
Now I noticed that the man page of the app-name is unavailable, because the man page file is installed in /usr/local/app-name/share/man, in a location different from the rest.
Can someone help me to fix the linkage of the man pages? Where does the man command reads from by default?
Note: I prefer to install with --prefix to /usr/local/app-name because it's easier to remove the entire application when I don't need it.
Thank you.

Yeah... it worked like a charm!
Thank you Zerwas.
I marked as Solved but what if we want the man page to be available to all users without the need to edit .bash_profile? Can we create a symbolic link somewhere? (like I do with the /usr/bin) Certainly there's a default folder for man pages.
Thanks again.

I have formatted my SSD and hard drive.... I am running a clean install from disk of 8.1 pro. I cannot determine if it is a compatibility

issue or hardware issue. I had run a memory test and scan disk for bad sectors from the bios. As administrator, I enabled automount in diskpart to allow windows to assign a drive name.
From the bios, I can see both drives and only the ssd. I have not pinpointed when the harddisk is unmounted. It is formatted as NTFS. I can hear it unmount either during boot or upon waking from sleep mode. The bios sees no bad sectors nor does windows.
However, when I had the intel compatibility software installed, my hard drive never mounted. I did a restart and inorder for windows to see my hard drive. I disabled the intel software for the 4th gen i7 processor. This problem is happening less often. I do
not think I have solved the problem. Intel or Windows... I think a bit of both.
If there is a software patch, please guide me to it. I am in school and use my laptop ALL the time. I believe it is a compatibility issue. I have attached this from searching intel's site for downloads and windows is up to date.
I am quite concerned because I can hear my harddrive unmount. It is labeled as healthy NTFS partition. I have checked for hidden volumes and done everything I know to do to check the integrity of the hardware as administrator. I have searched microsofts
libraries and forums and have done everything I can find as suggestions.
I have checked for malware, viruses, etc. My only clue this is going to happen is the hard disk spins up and I hear the fan, then I hear it unmount the drive. Of course, after unmounted there are other issues which I have ruled out as the cause of the problem.
Basically, I am experiencing a lack of swap space after my hard drive unmounts.
Any suggestions, are welcome! I would really like to know if this is a known windows issue. I should not have to disable intel's processor software. I paid for the features of the i7 and would like to utilise the processor.

Hi,
According to your descriptioin, I don't think this is system problem, it should be Intel driver problem. It would be contact Intel to confirm this issue whether this is their driver problem.

Installing from sources, not with pacman, problem!

Hi!
I wanna to install some software form sources, but after installing, programs doesn't work
some guys form irc sed, that my $PATH is wrong!
Here it is
/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/opt/bin:/opt/gnome/bin:/opt/gnome/bin:/opt/gnome/bin:/opt/mozilla/bin:/opt/xfce4/bin
but i donno what its wrong
What should i do?
THX

ok.
so at first i istalled graphical links, all i did was step-by-setp.
configure
make
I found this in one of steps:
If you got a root access, log in as root and do "make install" in the same directory. If you are installing Links as an ordinary user, place the "links" executable file that was created by the "make" command into some suitable place possibly within your $PATH.
i'm root so i make install
make install
after his i ran in command shell
[lfx@localhost ~]# links
bash: links: command not found
[lfx@localhost ~]#
secondaly i wanted to install free pascal (it's for my state exams)
i downloaded sources, unpacked them and found install.sh, i ran it, installet without problems.
but command shell can't find it
sorry for stupids, i am newbie

Run time engine install from build package failure

when trying to install LV 8.0 Run Time engine from build package, an error is generated that the target computer needs to have LabView 8.0 installed.
i have verified that the run time engine is included as an additional installer under the build project.

Hi MJK34,
If you are being prompted to install LabVIEW there must be something in the build that requires LabVIEW, not just the runtime. Can you post a screenshot of your build specification? Thanks.

Run applet without install plug-in

Hi,all!
I surfed on IBM site of iSeries information center and saw that this site has on it's rigth site - applet menu and it works fine even without installation of java plug in on client side.I know because in our company not everybody has a simple java JRE installation on windows environment, so
I was wondering if one of you could help me understand how does it work without even installation of java plug in on client side?
I cannot talk about "Silent installation" because , for example , applets that on server local network drive are not working for the same users machines. What the secret?
Can applet run some other way than plug in on user's side?
Thank you in advance.

I forgut to give a link for that site :

Cant uninstall application installed from source with pacman.

I made and installed the songbird-nightly program. It couldnt import a library, thus, wasnt even worth fully testing, unless I was going to manually get it to read all of my songs-- which I will not do.
Now, to get this off my computer, I tried several things, and then determined that I must not be using the right package name, so I ran:
pacman -Q | grep songbird
and it returned :
songbird-nightly 20080720-1
thus, I did:
pacman -Rsc songbird-nightly-20080720-1
and it returned:
error: 'songbird-nightly-20080720-1': could not find or read package
So, how do I get this poo off my computer.
Ok, its not poo. I love mozilla and virtually every program they make, but right now, its poo.

If pacman is perfect, then how come it won't improve anymore?
