[Vxl-users] SGI/IRIX6.5 vcl build failures... help

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

Hello,

Before anything else, my target platform is SGI ONYX2/IRIX 6.5. I have
attempted the same build on an SGI O2 with exactly the same sytem and
compiler versions, resulting in exactly the same errors.

Has anybody been able to build all or parts of vxl-1.0-beta for any of
these architecture/OS combinations?
Any hint about compiling on any SGI architecture might be helpful.

My attempts have remained unsuccesful up to now.
I have made several attempts with both gcc/g++ 3.0.1 and cc/CC 7.3.1.2m,
which are the available compilers
on our system.

Here are the details:

*************************************************
* for the cc/CC native SGI compilers build attempt
*************************************************

- the cc/CC configure step went OK, the configure uses IRIX6-CC-n32
build tag.
   System variable CC is set to "cc -n32" and variable CXX "CC -n32".
   IU_COMPILER is set to "CC-n32".

- build is successful for the following libs: v3p/netlib, v3p/zlib,
v3p/png, v3p/jpeg, v3p/tiff

- build fails upon compilation of the vcl, stumbling on the file
emulation/vcl_hashtable.cxx
    The following files did compile before vcl_hashtable.cxx, though:
    vcl_cmath.cxx, vcl_stdlib.cxx, vcl_cassert.cxx and vcl_straits.cxx.

- the command line and errors follow at the end of the mail (Appendix A)
for the sake of clarity, they are quite huge.

- My guess is that some include or compiler flag interferes with the
stantard declarations. I have tried to manually add the -LANG:std flag
to remove the warnings, but the same errors remain and even more appear.

Does anybody know how to get around this?

*************************************************
* for the gcc/g++ 3.0.1 compilers build attempt
*************************************************

- required editing params.mk manually by commenting line 279, which had
not been generated properly by the configure.

- variable IU_COMPILER is set to gcc-2.95, as demanded by the message in
configure.

- copied config files  IRIX6-gcc.mk" and the later generated
"config-IRIX6-gcc.mk" to "IRIX6-gcc-2.95.mk" and
"config-IRIX6-gcc-2.95.mk" or make would fail

- build is successful for the following libs: v3p/netlib, v3p/zlib,
v3p/png, v3p/jpeg, v3p/tiff

- make does not reach the compilation stage in the vcl, it fails upon
making dependencies as it can't find the following files:
vcl_config_manual.h, vcl_config_headers.h, vcl_config_compiler.h
They were probably not generated properly by the configure. Renaming the
vcl_config_*.h.in doesn't work (error message "@" is not valid in #if
expressions)

************************************************************

Does anybody know what's wrong and how to get around this?

Thanks very much for spending the time to read this email.
