sos where is the libcaffe.a about installcaffejtx2 HOT 8 CLOSED

How did you modify the script to attempt to build the static library?

from installcaffejtx2.

Thank you for reply. I modified it by 2 ways.

1. I read your installCaffe script and found that it use the same source of caffe from git as my PC (by git clone https://github.com/BVLC/caffe.git) .

So I think that the only difference from compiling from PC is that, in your script there is " cmake -DCUDA_USE_STATIC_CUDA_RUNTIME=OFF " before make all in TX2. Then I modified it to "ON" by "" cmake -DCUDA_USE_STATIC_CUDA_RUNTIME=ON ".

However, this modification doesn't generate libcaffe.a

2. I grep all files to find key word "libcaffe.so" and "libprotobuf.a" that are generated successully. I did found them in CaffeTargets.cmake. So I modified the libcaffe.so target to libcaffe.a. Failed to generate libcaffe.a again.

Why with the same source code from github, my PC can generate libcaffe.a but the TX2 cannot? Is it a problem of configuration?

Please help.

Did you use the same cmake configuration that you used for your PC? I am under the impression that the flag for static compilation is BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF
You don't mention how you are building this for the PC.

On my PC it's by default.
cp Makeconfig.example.save Makeconfig.example
make all -j8
Then it generates both libcaffe.a and libcaffe.so. No special configuration.

And I just verified that on my PC, the cmake was even not installed.
Caffe contains the makefile which is directly called by make instead of cmake.

The CMake version does not build both the dynamic and static libraries by default, it builds one or the other.
You can use make instead if so desired. I do recall that using a static CUDA runtime on the TX2 causes issues, I am not sure if this has been fixed in later releases.

Thank you the problem is revolved! I removed wholely the caffe folder, rerun your installCaffe.sh script without the CMake line, everything is OK.

I didn't realize the CMake changed the BUILD_STATIC_LIBARYR configue in Makefile. How can you know such a detail? You are a hero!

I'm glad you got it to work.
