[Sablevm-user] jikes-1.14 and autoconf bother

[Erik C. <er...@ar...>]

Hi,

I'm looking for a Java VM where I can add a lot of logging to I can
get a trace file of allocations, call/returns and pointer writes
for a largish application.

I tried to compile sablepath-classes with jikes 1.14-1 from RedHat
7.2.  It crashed on about 10-15 of the files.  I installed 1.13 from
RedHat 7.1 and now it seems to compile.  So that was nice.

I'm a little confused about sablepath and sablepath-libs.  Do I need
both?  I can't compile sablepath-libs, since there is no file named
configure, so the instructions in the README don't work.

I'm using stuff from anonymous CVS:

Also I can't get the sablevm directory to work.  I typed

    aclocal
    automake

which worked, but then

    ./configure

gave the error:

    creating cache ./config.cache
    configure: error: can not find install-sh or install.sh in . ./.. ./../..

and automake was even worse:

    automake: configure.in: required file `./install-sh' not found
    automake: configure.in: required file `./mkinstalldirs' not found
    automake: configure.in: required file `./missing' not found
    configure.in: 149: required file `./ltmain.sh' not found
    configure.in: 149: required file `./config.guess' not found
    configure.in: 149: required file `./config.sub' not found
    automake: configure.in: required file `./config.guess' not found
    automake: configure.in: required file `./config.sub' not found
    configure.in: 18: required file `src/include/config.h.in' not found

What should I be doing here?  I have

    automake-1.4p5-2
    autoconf-2.13-14
    libtool-1.4-8

Any insights?

Yours,
