Setup for Testing R3.14.6

For both Solaris and Linux, start with the minimal setup provided by SCS (/usr/local/bin/environ).

• Solaris 8:
  setenv EPICS_HOST_ARCH <solaris-sparc-gnu or solaris-sparc>
  setenv EPICS_VER R3.14.6
  setenv EPICS_EXT_VER R3.13.6
  source /afs/slac/package/epics/script/ENVS.csh
  This setup will use R3.14.6 base, site, and extensions first and R3.13.6 extensions second. Note that setting EPICS_HOST_ARCH to solaris-sparc-gnu will use the area built by the GNU compiler and setting it to solaris-sparc will use the area built by the SUN compiler. If EPICS_HOST_ARCH is not defined, the default is solaris-sparc-gnu.

• Linux RHEL 3:
  setenv EPICS_VER R3.14.6
  source /afs/slac/package/epics/script/ENVS.csh
  This setup will use only R3.14.6 base, site, and extensions. R3.13.6 extensions are not supported for RHEL 3.

• CMLOG:
  ENVS.csh also sets up for testing with cmlog using cmlog configuration files under /afs/slac/package/epics/config. For solaris-sparc, it uses the cmlog build by ESD in /afs/slac/package/cmlog/prod. For solaris-sparc-gnu, it uses the cmlog build by ESD in /afs/slac/package/cmlog/solaris-gcc-3.1.1. For Linux, it uses the cmlog build by LCLS in /afs/slac/g/lcls/cmlog.

Build Details

Before building, first set the minimal setup provided by SCS (/usr/local/bin/environ). Then set the following environment variable:
setenv EPICS_HOST_ARCH <solaris-sparc-gnu, solaris-sparc, or linux-x86>

The build is done on public machines at SLAC. The Solaris 8 build is done on shire and the RHEL 3 build is done on noric-new. The /afs/slac/package/epics/R3.14.6 area is built non-shareable. The SPEAR area is built shareable.
