[Coin-discuss] compiling BCP

[Lou Hafer]

Einat,

	I haven't done any work yet with BCP, but have spent a fair bit of time
working with the makefiles. Here's an answer from a different perspective. It
won't directly solve your problem, but may give you a better idea of where to
look to fix it.

	The problem you're seeing is because the variable BCPROOT is
undefined.  Make is doing exactly what it claims --- trying to create a
directory "/dep", and Linux (through mkdir) is saying it won't let you create
a directory under "/", which is owned by root. And a good thing, too.  :-).

	Laci's comment that you need to build an example is because BCPROOT
is defined in the makefile for the example.

	Now, that said, a quick grep through the Makefiles says that the only
place BCPROOT is defined is in Examples/MaxCut/Makefile.maxcut.

	Hope this helps.
