Hello pilotlogic,

should it be possible to install codetyphone on mx-linux-17?
I can install the small IDE, but with the big IDE the installation stops with the message:

/usr/local/codetyphon/typhon/ide/ct_main.pp(13967,3) Note: (6058) Call to subroutine "function GetDebugLogger:TLazLogger;" marked as inline is not inlined

??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
[ERROR]: Sorry, Typhon64 BIG IDE x86_64-linux-gtk2 NOT Build

CPU: I7
RAM: 8GB
OS: mx-linux-17


Thanks for any help.

Thanks Sir

From error log you post,
I think it's a memory (RAM) problem
Big Typhon IDE need >= 4 Gbytes RAM

Please check if mx-linux has true 8 Gbytes RAM
If NOT you can build Minimum Big IDE or Medium Big IDE more info

This is in german, possibly it helps:
www.lazarusforum.de/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=10083
libgtk2.0-dev was missing in this case and same error message.

Linux is tricky

Yes but CT 6.6 has
the correct for mx-linux script to install and libgtk2.0-dev library,
( it's NOT Lazarus... )
IF the user install System Libraries

more info

I have 8GB, that should be enough for the installation.
I can successfully compile the medium version.

Thanks for the hint.

Several years ago I have used Linux exclusively.
Also we use it in company. (Therefore my interest.)

Can you test this: www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-check-memory-usage/

Thanks for the link, the 8GB memory is displayed with the tools in Linux.
Maybe it's because I did not create a swap file?

But at the moment everything works fine with Codetyphone.
Really a great tool!

Hello, I am not expert, but have some practical experiences.

I would add swap space for these reasons:

www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/serv...-killer-1911807.html
haydenjames.io/linux-performance-almost-always-add-swap-space/
First try simple stuff. If it works than you can investigate why.

Maybe it helps someone, after creating a 2GB swap file,
the compiling of Codetyphone runs without any problems.

Thanks

> after creating a 2GB swap file,

AFAIK, for Linux, a minimal swap file must be >= amount of RAM.

Fre;D

A swap partition >= physical RAM is required, if Hibernation (Suspend to disc) is used.
Also for servers and so on.

If a system is used as a desktop, where the swap is rarely used, a swap file should suffice as an emergency reserve.
BTW, on windows I have watched memory usage during compiling the big IDE.
The required total RAM is less than 2.5GB in peak situations.
It can however be that additional RAM is needed for memory mapped files or disc buffers. (I believe, I dont know)

Have fun!
