Install SystemC in Cygwin

Note: This tutorial works with Cygwin 1.5.25-15 and SystemC 2.2.0.


Installing Cygwin

Hop over to cygwin's website and follow the installation procedure. I would recommend to do a full installation.

Installing SystemC

SystemC's class library and event based simulator can be downloaded from the SystemC.org website. You need to create a login before you can download the files.

Type:

export CXX g++

export CC gcc

I used the following procedure to install it:

  1. Download systemc-2.2.0.tgz and write to a suitable location
  2. Unzip the file using tar zxvf systemc-2.2.0.tgz
  3. Navigate to the systemc-2.2.0 directory
  4. Create a subdirectory as per the INSTALL file called objdir
  5. Navigate to the objdir directory
  6. create the destination directory mkdir /usr/local/systemc-2.2
  7. Execute ../configure --prefix=/usr/local/systemc-2.2
  8. Modify the default stack size SC_DEFAULT_STACK_SIZE which you can find in /systemc-2.2.0/src/sysc/kernel/sc_constants.h from 0x10000 to 0x50000

Line 57: const int SC_DEFAULT_STACK_SIZE = 0x50000;

  1. Build systemc using make pthreads
  2. Install systemc using make install
  3. Check the installation using make pthreads_check, you might get the following error:

/usr/local/systemc-2.2/include/systemc.h:175: error: `std::wctomb' has not been declared
/usr/local/systemc-2.2/include/systemc.h:177: error: `std::wcstombs' has not been declared

  1. If this is the case then open /usr/local/systemc-2.2/include/systemc.h and commend out the 2 lines as shown below:

Line 175: // using std::wctomb;
Line 176: using std::mbstowcs;
Line 177: // using std::wcstombs;

  1. re-run make pthreads_check and all tests should pass

Getting started with Cryptpad in Ubuntu: step by step

Cryptpad is an open source collaborative editor which is hosted at: https://github.com/cjdelisle/cryptpad It is easy to clone the github repository and start to try, but if you are a newbie, there maybe some difficulties. Suppose that you have a clean Ubuntu machine, and want to try with Cryptpad, you can follow these steps: 1. Download mongodb for Linux: https://www.mongodb.org/downloads 2. Unzip the file you got to a location you want. You will start mongodb from there, or add this directory to your PATH variable so you can start mongodb from anywhere. 3. Suppose that you chose the easier way, i.e start mongodb from its directory. 4. Open Terminal (Ctrl + Alt + T for shortcut), move to the directory of mongodb 5. Type: mkdir db mongod --dbpath=./db These above commands will first, create a directory 'db' insider the directory mongodb, then start mongodb server. 6. Keep the terminal with mongodb server running 7. Open another terminal (Ctrl...
