2209.0. "Help configuring sandbox..." by AOSG::FILTER (Automatic Posting Software - mail to flume::puck) Fri May 03 1996 19:40

Subj: 	Help configuring sandbox...

I have a sandbox backed to ptliteos.  I'd like to make references
to the compiler and assembler drive go from being:

/usr/sde/osf1/build/ptliteos/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/acc/cc

to 

/farm3/ccg/shadow/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/acc/cc

(/farm3/ccg/shadow is my sandbox base).

I've tried setting environment variables and messing with various
files in rc_files/ area, but nothing I try seems to be able ot
override the behavior.

Is it possible to make the sandbox build using an alternate
tools area?  I need to do this so that I can build ptliteos
sources using the steel-based acc-compiler (and the -oldc
switch).  The ptliteos-based driver mishandles the -oldc switch,
but the ptos and steel driver gets it right.

Thanks for any help...
Chris

You know, we put a special section in the rengweb webpage just so I wouldn't 
have to keep answering this question for you  ;-)

Is some mail I sent to you on Thu, 11 Nov 93 with instructions.

Also, you may need this additional info I sent you in mail on 15 Aug 1995.

> cd <sandbox>/tools
> mkdir -p alpha_OSF1/alpha
> rm -rf alpha
> ln -s alpha_OSF1/alpha alpha
> cd alpha
> mklinks -verbose .

> Then remove the links you want to replace with different tools.

Now if all of this doesn't help, let us know exactly what problem you're 
getting.

If you're going to do this all the time, it may be easier for us to make a 
link in /usr/sde/osf1/build to your own private backing tree.
