RE: Swarm-1.1 on RedHat5.0

[Marcus Vinicius Pereira Pessoa]

Thanks for the help! By following the instructions I managed to make the 
example 
applications. But now I'm having problems in porting my application into 
swarm-1.1.
When I try to run my application I receive a segmentation fault error. I 
managed to 
copy it from gdb:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x8058a1e in findSwarm (arguments=0x8238968) at Arguments.m:231
Arguments.m:231: No such file or directory.


Arguments.m:231 (swarmPath = findDirectory (arguments, "swarm/VERSION");)

As I'm porting my application from swarm-1.0.3, I'll put below my main.m.

#import "CoObsSwarm.h"
#import "EvalObsSwarm.h"

#define GENLEN 8

void evalFunc(id<Chromosome> a );

int
main(int argc, const char ** argv) {
  CoevolutionObserverSwarm * topLevelSwarm;

  initSwarm(argc, argv);

  topLevelSwarm = [CoevolutionObserverSwarm create: globalZone];

  [topLevelSwarm setChromLength: GENLEN];
  [topLevelSwarm setEvaluationFunc: evalFunc];
  [topLevelSwarm buildObjects];
  [topLevelSwarm buildActions];
  [topLevelSwarm activateIn: nil];
  [topLevelSwarm go];

  return 0;
}

// Evaluation function.

void evalFunc( id<Chromosome> a ) {

  EvaluationObserverSwarm * observerSwarm;

  observerSwarm = [EvaluationObserverSwarm create: globalZone];
  [observerSwarm buildObjects: a];
  [observerSwarm buildActions];
  [observerSwarm activateIn: nil];
  [observerSwarm pplGo];
}

You are having typical problems that new users have, try to take it
easy.

I wrote up a complete set of installation instructions for swarm
and Redhat 5 last week or so. Look in the list archive for 
a message with a title like "Installing Swarm on Linux" or such.

You probably ought to stick with the binary install if you don't want
to do much file organization. In that case, you do not need to  configure
blt, tcl, ffi, or the other things.  You do need to make sure you have
the development rpms installed from Redhat, of course
