[Tinyos Core WG] ncc uses static prefixes

[Jan Beutel]

Hello kevin and the rest,

I noticed that ncc distributed with
http://tinyos.stanford.edu/tinyos/dists/ubuntu/full-listing/i386/tinyos-tool
s_1.3.0-20080625_i386.deb uses a static prefix to locate nescc which of
course DOES NOT work on any customized installation not defaulting to
/usr/bin. 

#!/usr/bin/perl

# Configuration
$TOSDIR = "/opt/tinyos-2.x/tos";
$TOSDIR = $ENV{"TOSDIR"} if defined($ENV{"TOSDIR"});
$nescc = "/usr/bin/nescc";                   


There is a mechanism for relocation built in to nescc, maybe we can use the
same here?

(copy from my very own nescc located in /scratch/tos2/usr/bin)

# Configuration
$prefix = "/scratch/tos2/usr";
$exec_prefix = "${prefix}";
$NCDIR = "${exec_prefix}/lib/ncc";


What do people think?

Jan
