Before you can build or use EPICS R3.14, the environment variable
Before you can build or use EPICS R3.15, the environment variable
EPICS_HOST_ARCH must be defined. A perl script EpicsHostArch.pl in the
base/startup directory has been provided to help set EPICS_HOST_ARCH.
You should have EPICS_HOST_ARCH set to your host operating system
followed by a dash and then your host architecture, e.g. solaris-sparc.
If you are not using the OS vendor's c/c++ compiler for host builds,
you will need another dash followed by the alternate compiler name
(e.g. &quot;-gnu&quot; for GNU c/c++ compilers on a solaris host or &quot;-borland&quot;
for Borland c/c++ compilers on a WIN32 host). See configure/CONFIG_SITE
(e.g. &quot;-gnu&quot; for GNU c/c++ compilers on a solaris host or &quot;-mingw&quot;
for MinGW c/c++ compilers on a WIN32 host). See configure/CONFIG_SITE
for a list of supported EPICS_HOST_ARCH values.</P>

<P><B>LD_LIBRARY_PATH</B><BR>
It is no longer necessary to have LD_LIBRARY_PATH include EPICS
directories on a Unix type system. R3.14 shared libraries and
executables will contain the full path name to libraries they require.
However, if you move the EPICS directories from their build-time
location then in order for libraries to be found at runtime
LD_LIBRARY_PATH must include the full pathname to
$(INSTALL_LOCATION)/lib/$(EPICS_HOST_ARCH) when invoking executables.
Building shared libraries is now the default setting for all Unix type
hosts. NOTE: You will still need LD_LIBRARY_PATH for R3.13 extension
shared libraries even if the R3.13 extensions are built with R3.14
base.</P>
<P><B>Win32 PATH</B><BR>
On WIN32 systems, for R3.14.7 and later, it is no longer necessary
to add fullpathname to $(INSTALL_LOCATION)/bin/$(EPICS_HOST_ARCH) to
your path for finding dlls during EPICS builds. The win32 configure
files in base now add this directory to the path definition.</P>
R3.15 shared libraries and executables normally contain the full path
to any libraries they require.
However, if you move the EPICS files or directories from their build-time
location then in order for the shared libraries to be found at runtime
LD_LIBRARY_PATH must include the full pathname to
$(INSTALL_LOCATION)/lib/$(EPICS_HOST_ARCH) when invoking executables, or
some equivalent OS-specific mechanism (such as /etc/ld.so.conf on Linux)
must be used.
Shared libraries are now built by default on all Unix type hosts.</P>
