[solved]How to compile a software with debug symbol from aur?

How does auch developers compile their project? Seems that archlinux user always trying to avoid build software from git/svn directly. But after searching a lot I sill haven't found how to compile with debug symbol while using PKGBUILD.
Anyone help?

I have tried to add --enable-debug while calling autogen.sh and gnome-autogen.sh, but it doesn't work.
Isn't PKGBUILD just a script? It calls what you make it calls by adding commands...

[Solved] Recompile Software with debugging symbols?

Has anyone an idea how to compile darktable with debugging symbols? I've grabbed the sources from the arch package and added the strings
export CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -O0 -fbuiltin -g"
export CXXFLAGS="$CXXFLAGS -O0 -fbuiltin -g"
to the PKGBUILD as the arch wiki described in the "Step by step debugging guide", but it don't seems to work proberly. I can't obtain a proper backtrace.
"gdb darktable" only gives me the message:
Reading symbols from /usr/bin/darktable...(no debugging symbols found)
What's my fault?

Sorry, that was really stupid. Thanks for the hints, I was able to compile now. But the next problem is knocking on the door: when I try to get a backtrace, I get a "No stack."-message from gdb. Google wasn't helpful with this and those are my first steps in debugging. Maybe some has an Idea? I only need a full backtrace for an upstream bugreport.
Edit: got it. There was a gdb Zombie in the background.
Solved!

Cannot compile code with debug symbols

I have a source code file that will not compile with debug symbols. I get an assertion failed in file ../src/regman/regman_local.cc at line 5224. The compile command and output are below.
/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc -g -xarch=v9b -xopenmp=noopt -xc99=all -c -o output/spirecon.o spirecon.c
cg: assertion failed in file ../src/regman/regman_local.cc at line 5224
cg: Out of range
cg: 1 errors
cc: cg failed for spirecon.c
However without the debug options and using the default -fast switch, i.e.
/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc -fast -xarch=v9b -xopenmp=noopt -xc99=all -c -o output/spirecon.o spirecon.c
it compiles without any problems.
I was hoping someone might have a suggestion as to how what might cause this type of error.

I have been told this is bugid: 4420630
It only happens when you try to use the optimizing
backend code generator without any optimization.
(That's what -xopenmp=noopt does)
If you add an -xO1 flag the assertion should go away, but you
will also lose some (but not all) of your debuggability.

How to compile DNG SDK with GCC?

I tried to compile DNG SDK with GCC, but I got stuck to the following error message:
... dng_flags.h:33:28: error: RawEnvironment.h: No such file or directory ...
In other words, it seems that file 'RawEnvironment.h' is missing. I cannot find this file from DNG SDK or XMP SDK. Do you know where I could find this file or do you know how to compile DNG SDK with GCC?
Regards Sami

Please define either qMacOS or qWinOS (i.e., in your list of preprocessor defines). As you can see in line 32 of dng_flags.h this is required.

Trying, failing to build qt5 with debugging symbols

As per this article, I modified my PKGBUILD like so (-developer-build):
build() {
cd ${_pkgfqn}
export QTDIR="${srcdir}"/${_pkgfqn}
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="${QTDIR}"/qtbase/lib:"${QTDIR}"/qttools/lib:"${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}"
export QT_PLUGIN_PATH="${QTDIR}"/qtbase/plugins
export PATH="${srcdir}/python2-path:$PATH"
[[ "${CARCH}" = "i686" ]] && SSE2="-no-sse2"
PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2 ./configure -confirm-license -opensource -developer-build \
Don't know if I put the option in the wrong place, though, or if that information is outdated for qt5 - but it's not building for me. Here's where makepkg stops:
ln -s libQt5Widgets.so.5.4.0 libQt5Widgets.so
ln -s libQt5Widgets.so.5.4.0 libQt5Widgets.so.5
ln -s libQt5Widgets.so.5.4.0 libQt5Widgets.so.5.4

==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
Aborting...
Not sure what happened. How do I get more information?
I need qt5-base with debugging symbols so I can get helpful traces for plasma-desktop crashes. So I should also ask: is it possible to modify the PKGBUILD to just compile qt5-base (and perhaps qt5-webkit and qt5-webengine)? qt5 is huge...
EDIT: and yes I had qtwebkit uninstalled at the time

I hate it when the only result for a problem is an unanswered question...
Anyway, invoking make manually uncovers what is the problem - there's a bunch of errors similar to this:
../gui/text/qfontengine_ft.cpp:1146:39: error: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions [-Werror=sign-compare]
for (int x = 0; x < slot->bitmap.width; x++) {
^
cc1plus: all warnings being treated as errors
So the -Werror is the culprit. Looking at the ./configure -help output it turns out that the -developer-build enables -Werror. But there's -no-warnings-are-errors. So yeah, passing -no-warnings-are-errors in addition to -developer-build should fix the compilation.
I have updated the wiki accordingly.
EDIT: the compilation gets a bit further, but it now fails because of tests.
EDIT2: it pays off to read configure rather than rely on some random suggestion from the wiki. There's a "-debug" option, which should just enable debugging. It hasn't finished compiling here yet, but it got a lot further than before.

How to compile and run a .java file from another java program

hello,
can any one tell me how to compile and run a *.java* file from another java program which is not in same directory?

Well a smarter way of implementing this is by using a solution provided by Java Itself.
If you are using J2SE 6.0+ there is an in built solution provided along with JDK itself and inorder to go ahead with solution the below are set of API which you;d be using it for compiling Java Programs (Files)
http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/tools/package-summary.html
How do i do that ??
Check out the below articles which would help you of how to do that
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-jcomp/index.html
http://www.javabeat.net/javabeat/java6/articles/java_6_0_compiler_api_1.php

Now once we are done with compilation.In order to run a Specific class all you ought to do is create an object and its specific methods of a specified class included in the CLASSPATH which you can manage it easily by usage little bit reflections.
Hope that might help :)

Hi Nicolas!
Have you tried to set "Output Format" for "RAW Text" to HTM in SCOT.
If HTM is missing in your dropdown-list, you could check out table SXCONVERT2. Copy the line with category T/format TXT, and change the format from TXT to HTM. The existing function
SX_OBJECT_CONVERT__T.TXT does not need to be changed. Now you should be able to choose HTM in SCOT. You will probably need som HTML-tags in your text to make it look good.
Hope this helps!

Makepkg hangs at "Stripping debugging symbols from binaries [...]"

Hi,
I made a PKGBUILD for the io (programming language) virtual machine but makepkg hangs at:
==> Tidying install...
-> Removing info/doc files...
-> Compressing man pages...
-> Stripping debugging symbols from binaries and libraries...
The PKGBUILD:
# Contributor:

has anyone a hint where to start searching for a solution? Or can anyone explain to me what "Stripping debugging symbols from binaries and libraries ..." in this context means?
Thanks,
hightower

Ok,
First of all thanks to shining.
I found the reason. The responsible piece of code:
for file in $(find {,usr/{,local/},opt/*/}{bin,lib,sbin} -type f 2> /dev/null || true); do
case "$(file -biz "$file")" in
*application/x-sharedlib*) # Libraries
/usr/bin/strip --strip-debug "$file";;
*application/x-executable*) # Binaries
/usr/bin/strip "$file";;
esac
done
As some filenames contain spaces they are split in the wrong way so the "filename storage" contains wrong file names. As several files contain " - " the script tries to read from stdin which causes the hang (I suppose). I'll file a bug report.

How to use the software with BSD License, such as substance!

Hi everyone, any idea use the software with BSD License, such as substance?

Welcome to the forum
First of all let's be quite clear that whatever output you
generate, you do not need RoboHelp loaded on the end users PC.
You don't say whether you are planning to use RH HTML or RH
for Word. The latter has the advantage that you are working with a
tool that you understand but in my book there it ends. You want to
generate HTML topics for an intranet and that is best done using RH
HTML. It's much easier to make the output take on the appearance
you want.
Your software would open the help you create either at a
default topic or a specific topic. That is controlled by how your
developers call the help. No need to go into detail on that just
yet. There are a couple of topics on my site about that.
The next step depends on how you design things. Are you going
to create a page that describes a particular document that links to
the document or are you going to convert the document to a topic in
its own right?
- If you are planning to link to the Word document, then you
need to consider how a Word document would open from an intranet
link. See Snippets on my site. Perhaps another option would be to
create PDFs of the documents.
- If you are planning to import the documents and recreate
them as HTML topics, I suggest you have some aspirin handy.
Importing is a notorious problem area as you can see from topics on
my site. That said, those topics explain how to avoid the worst
problems. The fly in the ointment is that you are using Information
Mapping and those indents and tables will give you real fun!
You can create printed documentation but most of your site
will be stuff that you already have in Word format so you need to
include that in your design thinking.
As to books there really isn't that much around. There are
some links on the Useful Links page of my site but I don't think
they will help you much on this one. You could read this forum from
cover to cover!
Hope that helps a bit. Come back if you have some follow up
questions.

How do we "demo" software with the app store?

usually there's a demo to try an app before you buy - how do we do this with the app store?

Use the developers site for any software demo/download/purchase that is of a substancial cost amount to you.
You DON'T want to deal with Apple's semi-English speaking India call center if you have a issue. TRUST ME!

Hi,
Can any one tell me , how to compile a package ?I'll try.
Actually, i have three classes under the package named
as linklist. Okay, so you have the package statement at the top of each class, right?
And the 3 classes reside in a folder named linklist?
Okay, if you do, while in the folder above linklist, do:
javac linklist/*.java (using the appropriate slash)
Did it work?
