i just installed gcc 4.9 using the link here and it is a very good link. But I have only one problem which i dont want to try not to mess up --> linking the libraries and path variables.
we have a cluster in our college and i installed this in my home directory (without root). Now my home/ directory contains this folder where all the gcc folders are :
bin
include
lib
lib64
libexec
share
What all do i have to do to point to the g++/gcc binary in bin folder with additional linking ? For example, set ld_library_path, set binary paths (export PATH = /home/asdf/gcc4.9/bin:$PATH) . etc..
Can anyone provide details on what all needs to be done to use gcc/g++ 4.9 (installed by me) by bypassing the older version of gcc installed by root.
Do i have to add lib and lib64 to the ld_library_paths as well ? Will i have to use " " instead of < > to include files (e.g. # inlcude "set" or #include and it includes from gcc4.9 and not the old one ) Or explicitly provide the include path using -I
Any suggestions/discussions/comments are welcome. I am aware this may marked as duplicate, but it will really be useful to all the people out there who want to try the new gcc-4.9 with c++11 without messing up the environment variables.
PS: I am not asking how to export or set an environment variable. I am asking what all environment variables are required to use my non-root version of gcc and not the root's older version and not mess up the ld paths and so paths during runtime.
thanks !!
If you build your compiler with --prefix=/home/myname/gcc4.9
(adjust to match your system, obviously), then the compiler should "know" that the include paths etc.
All you need beyond that is to make sure your path has /home/myname/gcc4.9/bin
before /usr/bin
or wherever your other gcc is installed, and everything should work just like normal. On my machine, I have gcc 4.8.2 installed from my own build and gcc 4.6.3 from the linux installer for gcc (because it's a fairly old distro). And as long as I have the paths set in the right order, it works "automagically".
You will need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH
, but include-paths and static libraries should be handled by gcc itself.
