Open Mul / Discussion / General Discussion: Compiling issue with MuL ??

Srikrishna Gopi - 2012-08-20

Hi Developers,

I am trying to compile the mul controller. However ./configure complains "-levent not found" and exits. I have built and installed libevent2.0.18 as mentioned in README. Any clue ??

  Hi Gopi,
  
  I assume you have built libevent by hand i.e not using the configure_ext_lib script. If that is the case , then, depending on where you have installed libevent
  you can pass appropriate flags to configure script. eg. ./configure LDFLAGS=-Lpath-where-libevent-was-installed CFLAGS=-Ipath-where-libevent-headers-were-installed
  
  Normally, libraries are installed in /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib and headers should be in /usr/include or /usr/local/include.
  
  Hope that would solve your problem.
  
  Regards,
  Dip

    Thanks Dip. It worked like a charm. I kinda liked mul controller implementation from whatever code I have seen. Hope it can give a tough fight to floodlights out there once you roll out more features !!!
    
    Cheers
