[q] how to set ACLiC compiler name?

ROOT

Hello,

Is there any way to tell ACLiC to use other than
hard wired CXX compiler using either environment
variable or rootrc resource variable? I know that
I may be able to use TSystem::SetMakeSharedLib()
directly. But if I can replace just compiler name (e.g. from
g++ to my own my-g++ …) it will be helpful?

Thanks,
Chulsu

Hi,

Usually (and you can check by look a gSystem->GetMakeSharedLib()), the compiler is requested with an explicit path. Hence you should be able to select the compiler you want (assuming the name is still g++) by changing the PATH environment variable.

Otherwise you need to call Get/SetMakeSharedLib (which you could do in a rootlogon.C file).

Cheers,
Philippe

Hi,

knowing both Philippe and ACLiC a bit, I’m pretty sure he meant to write:

Indeed :slight_smile:
