#27 Permission denied when running export_c_structs

[J. Scott Edwards]

If the public objects file is not writable by the user (which is the way it should be) you get a permission denied error when running export_c_structs to generate the c_structs.h file:

$ make
make -C gnu
make[1]: Entering directory `/pub/objectify/gnu'
make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/pub/objectify/gnu'
cp -p gnu/md5.o .
