- I am trying to compile libg++ for the sgi.
- My configure command was such:
- configure iris --prefix=/usr/local/lib/gnu
-
- This creates the Makefiles then I 'make all'.
-
- The FIRST error that kills the make is,:
-
- cd test; make all ...
- rm -f libg++.a
- rootme=`pwd` ; export rootme ; cd src ; ar qc ../libg++.a *.o
- rootme=`pwd`; export rootme; cd iostream; \
- ar qc ../libg++.a *.o
- cd ../libiberty; \
- ar qc ../libg++/libg++.a `cat needed-list` strerror.o strsignal.o
- true libg++.a
- touch .stmp-genclass
- touch .stmp-tests
- touch .stmp-etc
- (rootme=`pwd` ; export rootme ; cd src ; \
- make "CC=cc" "CFLAGS=-g" "XTRAFLAGS=" \
- "AR=`if [ -f ${rootme}/../../binutils/ar ] ; \
- then echo ${rootme}/../../binutils/ar ; \
- else echo ar ; fi`" "RANLIB=true")
- cc -g -nostdinc++ -DLO_CAL \
- -I../.. -I. -I./../../iostream -I./../../src \
- -I./../../g++-include -c new.cc
- cc: Error: malformed or unknown option -nostdinc++
- *** Error code 2
-
- Stop.

- For some reason, this area of make sets CC=cc, and then tries to pass
- it the -nostdinc++ flag, which ofcourse cc doesn't accept.
-
- Pne solution I have tried, which I hope is valid is changing the
- definition of CC in the Makefile.in to "CC=gcc" as opposed to
- "CC=$(CC)" which I hoped would set CC to gcc in all areas. It worked,
- sort of. Now when I re-config and make all, I get an error that seems
- to have been expected in certain cases:
- .
- .
- .
-
- else echo ar ; fi`" "RANLIB=true")
- gcc -g -nostdinc++ -DLO_CAL \
- -I../.. -I. -I./../../iostream -I./../../src \
- -I./../../g++-include -c new.cc
- In file included from ./../../src/std.h:26, from new.cc:23:
- ./../../g++-include/string.h:28: declaration of `int strlen (const char *)'
- <built-in>:0: conflicts with built-in declaration `unsigned int strlen (const char *)'
- new.cc: In function `void * operator new (long int)':
- new.cc:60: warning: ANSI C++ forbids implicit conversion from `void *' in assignment
- *** Error code 1
-
- Stop.
- *** Error code 1
-
- -------------------------- end make output -------------
-
- So, I checked out string.h, and it has a comment:
-
- // NOTE: If you get a error message from g++ that this declaration
- // conflicts with a <built-in> declaration of strlen(), that usually
- // indicates that __SIZE_TYPE__ is incorrectly defined by gcc.
- // Fix or add SIZE_TYPE in the appropriate file in gcc/config/*.h.
- size_t strlen(const char*);
-
- So now my question(s):
- a) Was setting CC=gcc ok to do or is it necessary to use cc
- for part of the make.
- b) If cc is needed how do I get rid of -nostdinc++?
- c) Which .h file do I change in gcc-2.3.1/config (iris.h??
- svr4.h??) and do I have to recompile gcc to effect the
- changes? (I already tried changing both without
- re-compiling and it hits the same error messg.)
-
- The only reason I am making libg++ is so I can compile InterViews,
- which needso some of the libraries, so I just tried to copy the needed
- libs to /usr/local/include. This seems to work but I am still looking
- for a lib called sysent.h, ever heard of it? Is it a libg++ lib? I am
- pretty sure that it is in libC++ (CC).
-
- Sorry for the length of the mail, but I didn't want to leave anything
- out. Thanks a lot for the time, if your're ever in SanDEiego, Happy
- Hour is on me.
