Unfortunately yeeeeees (((((( there is a particular reason!!
I need Jasper Software and unfortunately, these two available versions are known to compile on
• Red Hat Linux 7.3, GNU C 2.96, GNU Make 3.79.1
• SunOS/SPARC 5.7, GNU C 2.95, SunOS make
• Windows 2000 Professional, Microsoft Visual C 6.0
as mentioned on the jasper manual
I actually use Ubuntu 10.04 and i have had problems when installing jasper on it ((
So i'm trying to find a solution with the OSs above.
If you know how to get the others, it would be great )
Building 1.701 : cd jasper-1.701.0/ &&
zcat jasper_1.701.0-2ubuntu0.6.06.1.diff.gz | patch -p1
&& ./configure --enable-shared && make : OK with gcc-4.4.x
Thx Knudfi for the good news !!
I've tried the 'sudo apt-get install libjasper-dev' and i didn't have problems with it
But, my problem was while compiling with 'make', i have these errors:
Why are you trying to compile it, now that it's installed?
yes.. i think it's ridiculous from my part..
Honestly, i am following the jasper manual for the installation:
Quote:
1. Set the current working directory to the top level directory of the JasPer software distribution.
To set the current working directory as required, type:
cd $TOPDIR
(where $TOPDIR is defined as described earlier in this section).
2. Perform the initial configuration of the software.
This is accomplished by running the configure script. This process allows important information about
the system configuration to be determined. The configure script also generates makefiles from makefile
templates. In theory, it should not be necessary to manually edit any of the makefile templates (i.e., the
Makefile.in files) used by the configure program. To invoke the configure program, type:
./configure
The configure script accepts a number of options. These options can be listed by invoking the configure
command with the --help option. Unless you know what you are doing (or have problems with
the default build settings), it is strongly recommended that you not override the default settings for
configure.
In some cases, it may be necessary to explicitly disable the use of the IJG JPEG library (i.e., libjpeg).
This is accomplished by supplying the --disable-libjpeg option to configure. For example, such
action may be required if the version of the JPEG library installed on your system is not compatible
with the version of JasPer being built. Also, when building under the Cygwin environment, it may be
neccessary to explicitly disable the use of the JPEG library.
In some situations, it may be necessary to explicitly disable the use of the OpenGL libraries. This is
accomplished by supplying the --disable-opengl option to configure.
3. Compile and link the software.
This is accomplished via the make command. To run the make program, type:
make
4. Install the software.
This step may require special (e.g., superuser/administrator) privileges depending on the target direc-
tory for installation. (The default installation directories are normally under /usr/local.) To install
the executables, libraries, include files, and other auxiliary data, type:
make install
Presuming that the build was successful, the executables for the JasPer application programs can be found in
the directory $TOPDIR/src/appl.
At the end, i still can't find the executables for the jasper application programs in the mentioned directory $TOPDIR/src/appl.
