"which sicstus" will tell you where it is on linux if it is in your path.
From the manual:
In addition the following environment variables are set automatically on startup. SP_APP_DIR The absolute path to the directory that contains the executable. Also available as the application file search path. SP_RT_DIR The full path to the directory that contains the SICStus run-time. If the application has linked statically to the SICStus run-time then SP_RT_DIR is the same as SP_APP_DIR. Also available as the runtime file search path. SP_LIBRARY_DIR The absolute path to the directory that contains the SICStus library files. Also available as the initial value of the library file search path Walter -----Original Message----- From: owner-sicstus-users@sics.se [mailto:owner-sicstus-users@sics.se] On Behalf Of Roberto Bagnara Sent: Friday, October 21, 2005 4:10 AM To: sicstus-users@sics.se Cc: The Parma Polyhedra Library developers' list Subject: [sicstus-users] Locating sicstus.h
Most people installing SICStus onto some non-standard place, will set their PATH environment variable so that the command `sicstus' does the right thing. Exploiting this fact, I would like to know where is sicstus.h located. In other words, I need something like what is offered by SWI-Prolog as follows:
$ pl -dump-runtime-variables CC="gcc"; PLBASE="/usr/local/lib/pl-5.4.7"; PLARCH="i686-linux"; PLLIBS="-ldl -lreadline -lncurses -lm -lrt "; PLLIB="-lpl"; PLLDFLAGS="-export-dynamic -O3 -pthread"; PLSOEXT="so"; PLVERSION="50407"; PLSHARED="yes"; PLTHREADS="yes";
Here, PLBASE tells me the installation path, and from there I can retrieve everything. Notice that I rely on the fact that PATH has been set so that `pl' works.
What is the simplest way to achieve this effect for SICStus? Many thanks,
Roberto
