As an alternative to this How-To-Build-Guide a single script which installs everything automatically can be found here. Edit the destination directories at the top of this script and then execute it.

First define some handy environment variables for your preferred installation directory prefixes:

export PCL_PREFIX=/your/PCL/prefix
export LPEL_PREFIX=/your/LPEL/prefix
export SNET_PREFIX=/your/SNET/prefix

They may very well have the same prefix destinations such as ”/usr/local” or ”$PWD/build”. In the remainder of this page we will use these variables to install the PCL, LPEL and S-Net software to.

Install libPCL - the GNU Portable Coroutine Library, currently version 1.12

tar zxvf pcl-1.12.tar.gz
cd pcl-1.12
./configure --prefix=$PCL_PREFIX
make
make check
make install
cd ..

Use Git to clone the LPEL repository from Github, build and install it:

git clone https://github.com/snetdev/lpel.git
cd lpel
./build-aux/bootstrap

./configure --with-pcl=$PCL_PREFIX \
--with-mctx=pcl \
--prefix=$LPEL_PREFIX

make
make install
cd ..

Clone the snet-runtime repository from Github, build and install it:

git clone https://github.com/snetdev/snet-rts.git

cd snet-rts
./bootstrap

./configure --with-lpel-includes=$LPEL_PREFIX/include \
--with-lpel-libs=$LPEL_PREFIX/lib \
--prefix=$SNET_PREFIX

make
make install

Define S-Net environment variables in your personal startup files which are required to compile S-Net source code:

export SNET_INCLUDES=$SNET_PREFIX/include/snet
export SNET_LIBS=$SNET_PREFIX/lib/snet
export SNET_MISC=$SNET_PREFIX/share/snet

Set your library search path for S-Net and LPEL. On Linux:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$SNET_LIBS:$LPEL_PREFIX/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

On OS X:

# on OS X, include $SNET_LIBS and LPEL in your DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH:
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$SNET_LIBS:$LPEL_PREFIX/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH

Download the S-Net compiler archive: Linux x86_64, Linux i686, OS X

The archive contains a compiled binary, which is compressed with bzip2. Turn this into a valid executable with:

bunzip2 snetc-*.bz2 mv snetc-* snetc chmod +x snetc

For convenience, place the decompressed compiler binary into a directory in your $PATH.
