I am starting to use Atmel AVR's and I want to try this program.
http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/simulavr/

(The latest tar file is dated 2008-03-16)
http://download.savannah.nongnu.org/releases/simulavr/

I am looking at other options as well.

While trying to compile the program, I have installed most of the
devel and libs so I only get three or four error messages when
running ./configure

One of them that I cannot find any answers to is where do I find
ac_nonexitent.h.  I have searched Google (31,800 hits) and I see
           ^ an 's' is missing, isn't it?
that this is a common question for many users but I never see an
answer.  Two days of looking and I am no closer to an answer.  I did
solve the issue with vfork.h (use unistd.h) this morning. :)

As others have asked in my searches, I have errors when compiling
and trying to fix all the ./configure issues first.

Does configure exit cleanly or does it throw an error when this
happens?  I *think* that ac_nonexistent.h is something autoconf uses
to test and isn't supposed to exist.  (But I've not found that
documented ATM.)  I can tell you that a similar message is found in
the config.log of some software I successfully build all the time.

What errors are you getting from make?  It might be worth posting a
link to the output from ./configure && make (and perhaps also the
config.log file).



I am doing this at home so I cannot remember the last error message. I spent most of last night getting rid of all but four error messages in the config.log file. I was missing many headers at first as well as other things like bison and yacc. Some simple things as well.

The last two times I tried to run, it stopped with error messages but that was before I got rid of even more missing items in the log.

Hopefully tonight I will be able to get an answer. I am expecting an error related to vfork as it is may be looking for the wrong header. I will have to check the config file (another new experience). :)
