What I meant was that the initialization of the variable set_words_big_endian doesn't matter, but the value of BYTES_BIG_ENDIAN elsewhere does matter, and might explain the problem described. Since it's not used as an initialization in dwarf2out.c, I don't suppose there are compiling problems when leaving BYTES_BIG_ENDIAN there. It's just the one place in stor-layout.c where it should be changed.

Which gpc version
by Ernst-Ludwig Bohnen 25 Jul '00

25 Jul '00

Hi, on ftp://agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de/gnu-pascal/alpha/ I found several brand new gpc versions, last one is 20000724. Questions to the gpc designers: 1) Which version is recommended to work with SuSe 6.x ? 2) Which version is planned to come with SuSe 7.0 on CD? Thank you in advance Ernst-Ludwig Bohnen

I am still trying to build the gpc-20000719 / gcc-2.95.2 suite on top of Irix 6.5. Following Frank Heckenbach advice to replace BYTES_BIG_ENDIAN by 0 in line 64 of stor-layout.c, the compilation process has progressed but is again stopped many steps further by the following error: --- gmake[2]: Entering directory `/usr/people/ottorini/pascal/gpc-build/gcc/p/rts' ../.././xgpc -B../.././ -c -I. -W -Wall -Wpointer-arith \ -Wwrite-strings -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations \ -g -O2 -DRTS_RELEASE_STRING="'`cat \ /usr/people/ottorini/pascal/gcc-2.95.2/gcc/p/rts/rts-version`'" \ --unit-path=/usr/people/ottorini/pascal/gcc-2.95.2/gcc/p/rts \ --automake /usr/people/ottorini/pascal/gcc-2.95.2/gcc/p/rts/string.pas /usr/people/ottorini/pascal/gcc-2.95.2/gcc/p/rts/string.pas: In function `Memcompcase': /usr/people/ottorini/pascal/gcc-2.95.2/gcc/p/rts/string.pas:224: Internal compiler error in `add_bound_info', at gcc-2.95.2/gcc/dwarf2out.c:7376 Please submit a full bug report.

Bug-report
by Christian Neumann 25 Jul '00

25 Jul '00

Hi everyone. I'm running Linux 2.2.13 out of the Suse distribution. After recompilng the gcc with pascal options (gcc.rpm.source packages of the 6.4 dist). compiler version is 2.95.2 19991024 (release). The following file produce errors in the provided test-suite: TEST constovfl.pas: failed: failed: 0 TEST fjf149.pas: Failed: 64 TEST fjf83.pas: failed: Failed /tmp/ccqm2gyD.s: Assembler messages: /tmp/ccqm2gyD.s:110: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `mov' TEST goto4.pas: failed I hope this helps. Otherwise the compiler works just fine. sincerly Christian Neumann christian.neuann(a)nrw-online.de ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com

build problem with cygwin and gpc20000724 and before
by Joachim Falk 25 Jul '00

25 Jul '00

Ah yes i have forgotten to report another problem with rts.{h,c} in rts.h if HAVE_STRSIGNAL is defined it does declare the function char *strsignal( int ) witch conflicts with the strsignal definition in the cygwin include file string.h const char *_EXFUN(strsignal, (int __signo)); => compiler abort If we have defined HAVE_STRSIGNAL does it mean we have a strsignal function defined in string.h or does it only mean the lib has one ? In any case you can put a #ifndef __CYGWIN__ around the strsignal definition in rts.h

I will add checks whether strsignal() (and a few other functions and variables) are declared. You might want to test if it works with them.

I've talked with Peter about this problem, and it turned out that this variable is not really used currently. Until he'll fix the problem, you can just replace BYTES_BIG_ENDIAN by 0.

Re: p/scripts/find-sed with djgpp; cygwin rts.c; problem building rts gpc

If TMPDIR isn't set, they'll default to /tmp -- or should they rather use /var/tmp? > The Problem is that the latest version of cygwin downloaded just 3 days > ago doesnt have MAP_FAILED in /usr/include/sys/mman.h > this prevents rts.c to compile > I dont know if this is a bug in the cygwin header files or in > gpc I don't know either, but it seems easy enough to change in GPC. Just to be sure: It does have mmap, but not MAP_FAILED? What does mmap return on failure? If it's either NULL or ((void *) -1), it should be alright after my change. If it's something else, let me know. > The problem is the `echo $CC | sed 's/gcc/gpc/'` in p/rts/Makefile.in > if $CC contains gcc in more than one position > patched attached > I havent tested this on the djgpp system but it schould work > i have test dos style path with the sed script and it works Good point, I'll apply your patch. (BTW, inside `[]' you don't need to quote the backslash. A single `\' is enough, but of course, `\\' also works, it's just redundant.) Thanks for the reports and fixes.

But of course, it's safer to check $TMPDIR, and as I said, the GPC scripts do so now (and the GPC function GetTempDirectory has always done so as well).
