- The makefiles that have been provided for you assume you have GNU's freeware
- ANSI C compiler, which should be used (barring the availability of another ANSI
- C compiler) to create the SRGP library.
-
- The object files created by GNU's compiler are compatible with objects created
- by other C compilers only if the flag "-fpcc-struct-return" is sent to gcc.
- All the makefiles I have provided indeed set that flag.
-
- It is important to note that when that flag is set, the resulting object files
- are NOT compatible with objects created by gcc with*out* that flag set. All
- application authors who wish to use the SRGP library are encouraged to use gcc,
- so they can take advantage of prototypes, but these authors must be informed of
- the importance of the flag!
-
- If you are a system administrator or a lecturer in charge of a class using
- SRGP, please provide them with sample Makefiles and stress the flag's
- importance.
