Re: [Oorexx-devel] Failure of build under Mac OSX 10.4

[Rick M. <obj...@gm...>]

Yeah, error handling at this point is a bit problematic.  You're in the
process of loading/instantiating all of the standard Rexx classes, so
standard error handling methods fail because not everything you need to
report an error normally (e.g., the stream classes) are not there.   This
part of the process is not supposed to fail, so we never invested much time
in improving the error reporting.

newFile() reads in the program and translates it into an executable method.
Assuming programName has been resolved to a proper file name, this error
most likely occurs because of a problem reading the program file or because
of a translation error.  I encountered a problem recently (in Java, no less=
)
where the Mac/OSX default codepage was different, so the program source fil=
e
characters got translated into different code points than on other
platforms.  I hope this is not a similar type of problem.

Generally, the easiest way to get to the bottom of things here is to set a
breakpoint at RexxActivity::raiseException in RexxActivity.cpp and look at
the stack traceback to see how you got there.  This is the code that ends u=
p
triggering the setjmp() callback.
