Ubuntu11.10 build an Erlang Environment

If the library is incomplete, various errors will be reported during compilation and installation, so we are standing on the shoulders of giants. First of all, lay a good database: sudoapt-getinstallbuild-essentialsudoapt-getinstalllibncurses5-dev & nb

If the library is incomplete, various errors will be reported during compilation and installation, so we are standing on the shoulders of giants.

First, prepare the database:

1. Sudo apt-get install build-essential
2. Sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev
3. Sudo apt-get install libssl-dev
4. Sudo apt-get install m4
5. Sudo apt-get install unixodbc-dev
6. Sudo apt-get install freeglut3-dev libwxgtk2.8-dev
7. Sudo apt-get install strongtproc
8. Sudo apt-get install fop
9. Sudo apt-get install tk8.5

After installing the dependency above, go to the official website next source package: http://www.erlang.org/download.html

Decompress the package and compile and install it:

1. Tar zxvf/home/lqg/download/otp_src_R15B01.tar.gz
2. Cd/home/lqg/otp_src_R15B01/
3. ./Configure
4. Make & make install

There is usually no compilation error here, and there may be jdk environment problems:No Java compiler found
Check the jdk environment.

Finally, enter erl in the terminal

You can perform the erlang shell test:

1. 1> io: format ("hello wlord ").
2. Hello wlordok
3. 2> io: format ("hello wlord ~ N ").
4. Hello wlord
5. OK
6. 3> io: format ("the output is :~ W ~ W ~ N ", [hello, world]).
7. The output is: hello world
8. OK
9. 4> io: format ("the output is :~ W ~ W ~ N ", [hello, world]).
10. The output is: helloworld
11. OK
12. 5> io: format ("the output is :~ W ~ W ~ N ", [hello, world]).
13. The output is: helloworld
14. OK
