How to setup development environment

[Mic L]

Hi, I would like to install software with bib and I discovered devkit folder, but it seems the devkit/bin and boost155 are not in the PATH. What is best practice to setup the development environment?

Thank you in advance.

Best wishes,

Michal

Hi Michal, it shouldn't be necessary to manually add devkit/bin to your PATH, because BiB will automatically set the paths to gcc and g++ at build time when it is building a recipe. You shouldn't need to do any setup except adding the bib command to your PATH, like this if you installed with root at /opt/bib:

echo "export PATH=/opt/bib/active/bin:\$PATH" >>~/.profile

or

echo "export PATH=/opt/bib/active/bin:\$PATH" >>~/.bash_profile

Best, Mark
