[Slackbuilds-users] how can i define data_dir in makefile?

[Gabriel Diaz]

hello

in the source code of icsim.c there is a

#ifndef DATA_DIR
#define DATA_DIR "./data/" // Needs trailing slash
#endif


and then 


  if(stat(DATA_DIR, &dirstat) == -1) {
  	printf("ERROR: DATA_DIR not found.  Define in make file or run in src dir\n");
	exit(34);
}

so if there is no DATA_DIR defined, you might try to create a "data" diretory on the same path you´re running icsim.


another option is to add -DDATA_DIR=/var/lib/iscsim or something like that to the CFLAGS so the DATA_DIR is defined to your liking.

probably a good option is to define -DDATA_DIR in the CFLAGS and instruct the buildscript to define a DATA_DIR variable by default or pick one from the environment.

my 2 cents.
