Heads up: Upcoming Xyce deployment changes about qucs_s HOT 11 CLOSED

Thank you for sharing this important information. Yes, I will update defaults as soon as Xyce-6.8 will be released. Ideal solution will be to recognize Xyce version and suggest proper defaults. I will probably try to add an option "Find available simulators" in the "Simulator settings" dialog. Also Qucs-S could request to automatically scan system for available simulators at the first start.

I have just updated default paths for Xyce. The runxyce script was removed from paths. Look at c45bc09

Great. Thank you. I would like to try out the new qucs_s stuff on the current branch, but have not built qucs_s since you created this new repo.

I just tried building qucs_s by following the instructions in README.md (and since I'm building current, I'm leaving off "-DWITH_SPICE=ON"), and am getting a compile error. Here's what I tried:

git clone <qucs_s repo>
cd qucs_s
git checkout current
mkdir builddir
cd builddir
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<my install path>
make

This gets me:

Can you let me know what I'm doing wrong?

from qucs_s.

I just tried creating the build dir under qucs_s/qucs (the way the instructions on https://ra3xdh.github.io/ said to do for the old repo) instead of under qucs_s (the "top level" directory from the clone I thought that README.md referred to), and that seems to work. Or at least, I don't get that compile error.

from qucs_s.

OK, when I modified my build procedure to be:

git clone <qucs_s repo>
cd qucs_s
git checkout current
cd qucs
mkdir builddir
cd builddir
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<my install path>
make
make install

it works fine and creates the qucs-s executable (only). I can also build qucs-activefilter and its friends separately by making a build directory in that subdirectory and doing another cmake/make.

But if I make the build directory directly under qucs_s (which I presume should build qucs-s and all the other programs) the result is that failure to find "element.h"

Thank you, Vadim.

For whatever it's worth, I've seen this same problem on two different operating systems with two different compiler suites (FreeBSD with clang and Red Hat Linux with gcc). There must be some CMake issue that's not putting the "qucs_s/qucs" directory into the compiler's search path, but I am not able to spot it myself.

from qucs_s.

Yes, I can reproduce this issue. I have only found that it appears after the 9a1a7b1 , but I cannot found why.

from qucs_s.

It become clearer now. Something went wrong with qucs_SOURCE_DIR variable. I will try to fix it today or tomorrow.

from qucs_s.

I have fixed this problem. Look at the commit https://github.com/ra3xdh/qucs_s/commits/current on the current branch.

from qucs_s.

Nice. Thank you for the fix. I've got it all built now.

Looking forward to checking out some of the other additions you've made related to Xyce (sensitivity and .step work).
