[GRASS-dev] Compiling GRASS on Ubuntu

[dasuni kannangara]

Thanks a lot. I could install all dependencies and successfully compiled GRASS source code. I got some errors on nviz and i solved those too. somehow, through console i compiled the code. but after that, i opened the codes in eclipse (whole project). when i tried to build the project, i got 21 errors from main.c file in visualization/ximgview folder. I cant figure out the reasons. i have attached a screenshot of those too. Please tell me how i can solve those.

When you execute ./configure, look out for error messages. In your
case, configure quits with an error message:
configure: error: *** Unable to locate lex

in your case, you have to install lex

Make sure that you have all dependencies (and the dev packages!) installed.

Cheers
