Installing serport.comp fails was created by Mr_Servo
Hello programmers,
I´m playing with the comp generator and created some easy moduls so far, which worked pretty good.
Now i would like to go on to more complex and therefore I started with serport.comp
I tried to edit it and install it, but it failed.
So I took the unedited serport.comp and tried to install, but it failed too.
Took it from here:
Link to serport.comp
I was trying this:
The problem is that I don´t know where to find the header files(like "rtapi_io.h") which are included in serport.comp
Hope you can help me,
thank you in advance

If you have the source code then they are in /src/rtapi
But, you may well not have the source code.
If you look at the source code for comp itself:
github.com/jepler/linuxcnc-mirror/blob/c...l/utils/halcompile.g
(Which is now called halcompile, what version of LinuxCNC are you using?)
That has an undocumented "include" command for use above the ;; token which might work better.

I don´t even have the folder /src/rtapi
What do you mean I should look for in halcompile?
I´ve used the live cd for installation.
It´s wheezy with kernel 3.4-9-rtai-686-pae.
Was serport.comp made for an older version of linuxcnc?
Is there a later version of serport.comp available?
Thank you,
Jan

,comps that have #includes tend to need to be compiled as part of a full compile, rather than with comp / halcompile.
If you don't have the header files you can't include them.
You will probably find that your system has a fully-functional serport component. But you need the #included files to exist if _you_ want to compile it.

Ok thank you.
I´ve found out that serport.comp compiles when I change rtapi_io.h to rtapi.h
But I don´t know if the created component works.
Will try it out the next days.
Kind regards
Jan

In that case I am pretty sure it will work without that line at all.
(_no_ .comp can work without rtapi.h)

Based on a little checking of the history of LinuxCNC, the header <rtapi_io.h> is first available in LinuxCNC 2.6.0. If you are using an earlier version, such as 2.5.x, then this header is not available.
