5.3 Compiling and Installing the System

To compile the Stereocam system, you first need to ensure that all the required packages are installed. These packages should be installed by the superuser, usually using the inst or Software Manager (swmgr) programs.

Once these packages have been installed, the compilation and installation of the Stereocam system should proceed smoothly. Edit the Makefile (and Makefile.IRIX), making changes where necessary. Then compile the system by running gmake. After compilation, a stereocam binary should exist which can run on mips3 architecture machines (Indy or better) which are running Irix 6.2 or higher. If desired, this can have its permissions set to allow any user to run it (eg. 755), and copied to a system-wide binary directory, such as /usr/local/bin.
