Viptos

Linux How-To

Below are the steps that worked in February, 2011 with RHEL Linux and Java 1.6. See Ptolemy II PtinyOS Domain Installation Notes for details.

Download the devel via svn and build. See http://chess.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptexternal:

svn co https://source.eecs.berkeley.edu/svn/chess/ptII/trunk ptII
cd ptII
export PTII=`pwd`
./configure
make

Set up ptinyos1.x:

cd $PTII
mkdir -p vendors/ptinyos
cd $PTII/vendors/ptinyos
wget http://ptolemy.berkeley.edu/viptos/viptos1.0/tinyos-1.x-2007-01-17.tar.gz
tar -zxf tinyos-1.x-2007-01-17.tar.gz

Download nesc 1.2.8 from http://sourceforge.net/projects/nescc/files/nescc/v1.2.8/. We use nesc-1.2.8 to avoid /usr/include/pthread.h:502: requested alignment is not a constant, see http://bugs.gentoo.org/145870.

cd $PTII/vendors/ptinyos
wget "http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/nescc/nescc/v1.2.8/nesc-1.2.8a.tar.gz?r=http%3A%2F%2Fsourceforge.net%2Fprojects%2Fnescc%2Ffiles%2Fnescc%2Fv1.2.8%2F&ts=1298084236&use_mirror=superb-sea2"
tar -zxf nesc-1.2.8a.tar.gz
cd nesc-1.2.8
./configure
make
sudo make install

export TOSROOT=$PTII/vendors/ptinyos/tinyos-1.x
export TOSDIR=$TOSROOT/tos
export PTINYOS_MOMLROOT=$PTII/vendors/ptinyos/moml

Reconfigure:
```
cd $PTII
./configure
  
```

Configure and install the TinyOS 1.x nesC tools.

cd $TOSROOT/tools/src/ncc
./Bootstrap
./configure
make
sudo make install

See if you have installed TinyOS 1.x and nesC correctly

cd $TOSROOT/apps/Blink
make pc
./build/pc/main.exe 1

Unzip the pre-generated libraries and applications

cd $PTII/vendors/ptinyos
cat $PTII/ptolemy/domains/ptinyos/util/nc2moml/nc2moml-tinyos-1.1.15Dec2005cvs-1.tar.gz | gunzip | tar -xvf -
cd $PTII/vendors/ptinyos
cat $PTII/ptolemy/domains/ptinyos/util/ncapp2moml/ncapp2moml-tinyos-1.1.15Dec2005cvs-1.tar.gz | gunzip | tar -xvf -

Run the demo, check standard output for errors. The LEDs in the icon should blink
