Chris, normally questions like this should go to "buildhelp", which I cc'd.

Someone else from buildhelp can see if my list below needs any additions...


The supported way to accomplish this is as follows:

a) don't touch standard.mk or anything in usr/lib/makefiles

b) in your own sandbox's rc_files directory, create the file 'custom' as
follows (the file custom will not be affected by resb, though local & shared
will be):
 
 include ./local
 replace setenv COMP_HOST_ROOT /
 replace setenv COMP_TARGET_ROOT /

 look through the output of "sbinfo" or "printenv" to see if you want to
 reset other explicit settings which exist, like:

     MIGCOM=/usr/sde/osf1/build/agosminor/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/hostbin/migcom
     LEXER=/usr/sde/osf1/build/agosminor/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/lib/ncform
     YACCPAR=/usr/sde/osf1/build/agosminor/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/lib/yaccpar

Also, I'm not sure about the exact function of some of the following, but they
may need resetting too:

    COFF_GCC_EXEC_PREFIX=/usr/sde/osf1/build/agosminor/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/gcc/
    MACHO_GCC_EXEC_PREFIX=/usr/sde/osf1/build/agosminor/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/macho/
    A_OUT_GCC_EXEC_PREFIX=/usr/sde/osf1/build/agosminor/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/gcc/
    COFF_ACC_EXEC_PREFIX=/usr/sde/osf1/build/agosminor/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/acc/
    COFF_MCC_EXEC_PREFIX=/usr/sde/osf1/build/agosminor/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/mcc/
    TARGET_EXEC_PREFIX=/usr/sde/osf1/build/agosminor/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/hostbin/


Any other local tools you want you can put in your own sandbox's tools
directory, which starts out empty.  You'll notice this comes first in your
path, for eg, in my osmin sandbox backed by agosminor, the hostbin, bin,
and acc directories in my sandbox come before those three in the backing
tree:

    PATH=/usr/users/jmf/sb/osmin/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/hostbin:\
/usr/users/jmf/sb/osmin/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/bin:\
/usr/users/jmf/sb/osmin/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/acc:\
/usr/sde/osf1/build/agosminor/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/hostbin:\
/usr/sde/osf1/build/agosminor/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/bin:\
/usr/sde/osf1/build/agosminor/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/acc:\
/usr/sde/ode2.0/tools/alpha_ace/bin:\
/usr/ucb:/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin

If I want to modify my build environment to do a build
such that it always uses my local tools - including
my local driver, what do I have to change in standard.mk?

I'd like to do some builds where instead of having:

/usr/sde/osf1/build/agosminor/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/acc/cc

I simply get:

cc

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Chris
