Compiling GCC on HP-UX 10.20
by Mason Ip 21 Jan '00

21 Jan '00

I started this thread last week when I reported the following errors (see below) when compiling gcc-2.52.2-gpc-19991030 on HP-UX 10.20. There had been a series of discussions on how to compile GCC (without GPC) on HP. I try to summarize the issues here. 1. you need GBU binutils to get the assemler (as); HPÂ’s as seemed not working well in building GCC 2. GNU linker (ld), which is a part from GNU binutuils, could not be built. A poster (in comp.sys.hp.hpux) commented on building GNU ld on HP below. Â“You can't -- it's not supported. Reason: HP's odd binary format.Â” 3. Now even if you have GNU Â“asÂ” and HPÂ’s Â“asÂ” on your HP box, and you have GNU Â“asÂ” before HP Â“asÂ” in your $PATH, GCC compilation cannot be guaranteed to use GNU Â“asÂ”. One trick a poster (in gpc.gnu.de) had suggested is to soft-link GNU Â“asÂ” to GCCÂ’s build directory. This same trick was also suggested by another poster in in comp.sys.hp.hpux. 4. HPÂ’s sed was buggy in that it put time stamps onto some files, making the build to complain. The resolution was two fold : get a patch from HP to patch HPÂ’s sed, or get GNU sed. 5. GNU autoconf may be necessary; although I did hack a Makefile to get rid of the Â“autoheader not foundÂ” error without having GNU autoconf installed. But lately I just install GNU autoconf to get rid of the trouble. 6. A script suggested by a poster (in comp.sys.hp.hpux) help in the building of GCC-2.95.2. I modified it a bit to add comment and add log-files. See the scripted attached at the end of this message. I have succeeded in build GCC-2.95.2 (without GPC) using this script (and the pre-requsites : autoconf, gnu sed, gnu as). Yet I got the same errors (attached at the end) using the same script for GCC-2.95.2-plus-GPC-19991030. So, it seemed to be a GPC bug when comparing the two builds (GCC built OK; GCC-GPC built failed). I hope someone could reproduce the problem on their HP-UX, just to rule out error due to my inexperience on HP-UX. Thanks a lot for your attention.

Compiler error
by Moore, Jason 21 Jan '00

21 Jan '00

Hello all. I am getting a strange compiler error and I don't know why. Maybe one of you can help. In one global file I have: DevMdType = ( DevShared, DevExclusive ); In another file I have this: PROCEDURE LPOpen ( LPDevMode : DevMdType; VAR LPStatus : SHORTINT ); Still later, I try to call LPOpen: LPOpen (DevShared, PrnStatus); And I get "incompatible type for argument 1 of `Lpopen'" Shouldn't this work? Thanks -Jason

pointers, arrays
by Klaus Friis Østergaard 21 Jan '00

21 Jan '00

Thanks for the help with dynamic allocation of arrays. Can any body help me with these two questions: 1) Is it possible to use a notation like the this in C: item->next_item->data->name = 'test name' and if it is, how is it done? 2) To get data out of an array by the help of pointers type arraytype = array[1..100, 1..100] of interger; var a: arraytype; k : ect.. .. max :=0; for k := 51 to 100 begin if A[50,k]>max then max := A[50,k]; end; or for k := 51 to 100 begin if A[k,50]>max then max := A[k,50]; end; I am thinke of something like this not very nice example: finish_ptr := addrs(A[50,100]) a_ptr := addrs(A[50,51]) max_ptr := a_ptr; incrementing value/function ? while a_ptr <> finish_ptr do begin (a_ptr := a_ptr + incrementionvalue) / (incremention function (a_prt)); if a_ptr > max_ptr then max_ptr := a_ptr; end; If it is possible how do I calculate the incrementation value(x) for both A[50, 51+x] and A[51+x,50] or make a function/procedure? 3) Is there a good place or textbook to find information about working with pointers in pascal and datastructures? I will be gratefull for any help, klaus

I got gnu as; and it choked on gnu as with something like Â“as : /var/tmp/xyz.s Â…. Something unknownÂ” on some *.c files.

That's what your message complained about. If you configure with `--with-gnu-as' but without `--with-gnu-ld', it might work with GNU as and HP's ld.

Well, I couldnÂ’t get gnu ld; binutils-2.9.1 package (from HPÂ’s site) had Â“ldÂ” missing. I fetched the source of binutils-2.9.1 and tried to build it myself with no luck. The configure script complained that Â“this configuration Â…. had problem building ldÂ”.

I haven't looked at 2.95 yet, so I don't know if theis is still true with "post-reunification" gcc. If I recall, 2.7.2 still required gas. > Frank Heckenbach, frank(a)g-n-u.de, http://fjf.gnu.de/

i haven't found out how to install gpc on dos, or somewhere where it's explained well how to do it. i managed to build simple hello program, but once i add "uses crt" i get in the message window: .. .. "f:\djgpp\lib\gcc-lib\djgpp\2.81\units\crt.c(34) Error: curses.h: no such file or directory (ENOENT)" "f:\djgpp\lib\gcc-lib\djgpp\2.81\units\crt.c(34) Error: curspriv.h: no such file or directory (ENOENT)" .. .. "module/unit crt could not be compiled" i'd thank any1 who can help, coz ive spent days tryin to make some 32-bit pascal compiler+ide work here. yaron
