I need to compile gem5 with the environment inside docker. This is not frequent, and once the compilation is done, I don't need the docker environment anymore. I have a docker image named gerrie/gem5. I want to perform the following process.

Use this image to create a container, mount the local gem5 source code, compile and generate an executable file(Executables are by default in the build directory.), exit the container and delete it. And I want to be able to see the compilation process so that if the code goes wrong, I can fix it.

But I ran into some problems.

1. docker run -it --rm -v ${HOST_GEM5}:${DOCKER_GEM5} gerrie/gem5 bash -c "scons build/X86/gem5.opt"

When I execute the above command, I will go to the docker terminal. Then the command to compile gem5(scons build/X86/gem5.opt) is not executed. I think it might be because of the -it option. When I remove this option, I don't see any output anymore.

I replaced the command with the following sentence.

1. docker run -it --rm -v ${HOST_GEM5}:${DOCKER_GEM5} gerrie/gem5 bash -c "echo 'hello'" But I still don't see any output.

2. When I went into the docker container and tried to compile it myself, the build directory was generated. I found that outside docker, I can't delete it.

What should I do? Thanks!

dockerfile

I want to do this programmatically right after a given target is built, during SCons build run, not with --tree or any other command to scons. I have a target node. It might have had some explicit dependencies, used scanners, file extension-based scanners, and whatever else SCons calculated. So like:

I am getting a linker error building a simple project using scons. The example commands show integrated compiling and linking of program binaries, which scons does not do (though I probably could force it to, I'd rather not if possible).

This command works fine:

I have a Flex source file and the result of converting it to C++ both stored in version control. (Pretty common practice. This allows compiling the program on machines that don't have Flex installed.)

In some situations, operations on version control may downgrade the target file while the source remains in the latest version. (This is intended.)

In such cases, I would like SCons to just build the target again, so it is up to date. However, it doesn't detect that the target file is outdated. It seems to only check if the source file has changed. Can I make SCons also check for changes in the target file while it's deciding if a rebuild is required?

You can test that behavior, using this one-line SConstruct:

I have a templated class where I'm overloading the addition and output operators and I have a particular specialization that is also templated. I haven't found any examples of how to do this and I end up with a linking error, so I'm left wondering if it's even possible.

I have some .c files that will compile to .o files. These .c files include a third party .h file. I would like to only include the third party folder as an include location for only the files that need it.

Here are pseudo code of what I am looking to do:

While building my program it is important to distinguish between files that don't exists and files that are empty. However, it appears that scons treats them the same and neglect to rebuild a target when a source file changed from one of these states to the other one.

I'm trying to upload my copy of Godot to my own github and it complains:

I have a series of identically formatted spreadsheets that I need to import into an access db. Unfortunately the spreadsheet data isn't in tabular form so I need to import a bunch of specific cells.

I read specific cells into variables and construct a query to insert rows into a table.

The code fails, when a cell contains a formula that equates to an error. To avoid the error, I must insert Null instead of the error value. How do I insert Null instead of the error value?
