@f4: Ah, I didn't notice the tag. My mistake.

@f4, the tag wasn't added by the OP. Most likely he *is* looking for "Adaptive Communication Environment".

@f4: Hmm, it looks like the OP was talking about ACE the "Adaptive Communication Environment", not the cluster environment. The down-vote is no longer justified. :)

Yep, sorry I didn't notice the tag was added by someone else -- edit: Vote too old to be changed, unless this answer is edited

A:
I am familiar with the ace docmentation, but it states that I need to download and build ace. I have installed libace-dev via synaptic in Ubuntu 9.10, and am a bit uncertain what is given to me and what is not.

@Ubik: The Ubuntu (and Debian) libace-dev package contains the ACE headers, static library, and shared library symbolic link (e.g. libACE.so) needed for development. The libace run-time package contains the ACE shared library. They follow the typical development and run-time library package conventions.

A:
I haven't tested, but that package seems to include all the necessary header files and the shared library. You should not have to build anything yourself. Have you tried using the library yet?

A:
Yes I have. I tried to compile this example
http://huihoo.org/ace_tao/ACE-5.2+TAO-1.2/ACE_wrappers/docs/tutorials/Chap_5/ex03.html
./usr/lib/libACE.so
$echo $PATH /usr/lib:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games
...so I guess it's just to compile like this?
$g++ exc3.cpp -o exc3
...how ever:
In file included from /usr/include/ace/config-lite.h:24, from /usr/include/ace/config-all.h:20, from /usr/include/ace/Synch_Traits.h:19, from /usr/include/ace/Timer_Queue.h:19, from timeout.cpp:11: /usr/include/ace/config-macros.h:500: error: expected constructor, destructor, or type conversion before ‘typedef’ /usr/include/ace/config-macros.h:501: error: ‘ACE_HANDLE’ does not name a type In file included from /usr/include/ace/os_include/os_limits.h:27, from /usr/include/ace/Basic_Types.h:58, from /usr/include/ace/OS_NS_Thread.h:29, from /usr/include/ace/Guard_T.h:26, from /usr/include/ace/Free_List.cpp:7, from /usr/include/ace/Free_List.h:142, from /usr/include/ace/Timer_Queue_T.h:19, from /usr/include/ace/Timer_Queue.h:26, from timeout.cpp:11: /usr/include/ace/os_include/os_unistd.h:178: error: ‘ACE_HANDLE’ was not declared in this scope /usr/include/ace/os_include/os_unistd.h:179: error: expected primary-expression before ‘char’ /usr/include/ace/os_include/os_unistd.h:180: error: expected primary-expression before ‘n’ /usr/include/ace/os_include/os_unistd.h:181: error: expected primary-expression before ‘struct’ /usr/include/ace/os_include/os_unistd.h:181: error: initializer expression list treated as compound expression /usr/include/ace/os_include/os_unistd.h:183: error: ‘ACE_HANDLE’ was not declared in this scope /usr/include/ace/os_include/os_unistd.h:184: error: expected primary-expression before ‘const’ /usr/include/ace/os_include/os_unistd.h:185: error: expected primary-expression before ‘n’ /usr/include/ace/os_include/os_unistd.h:186: error: expected primary-expression before ‘struct’ /usr/include/ace/os_include/os_unistd.h:186: error: initializer expression list treated as compound expression . . .
and so it goes on...
I have not had the time to look into this further.

5.2 is really old. Pull the example from the distribution of ACE that matches the version installed on your Ubuntu box. You can pull the source distribution from web site I pointed out in my answer.

BTW, you may want to stop placing progress updates in answers to your own question :). Updating your question with an "edit" is probably more appropriate.
