With svn revision 2490 on a clean checkout of the trunk, it is impossible to build. configure complains about missing files and it is impossible to use autoreconf to sort that out because there are other missing files (libltdl/m4, db/Makefile.in, etc.).
As far as I can tell, you need to use cmake instead of configure. The build will still fail, though, because the last time that flex and bison were run they embedded absolute paths into the generated files. The project doesn't appear to be accepting patches...
Hmm... I will look at bison++ and flex++.
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/cpp/Line-Control.html <- You mean this?
I always thought #line was for information and did not served any other purpose. :-/
Yeah, #line is just informational, but there are some #includes as well, which cause problems.
I haven't touched Boomerang in a while, and frankly I'm having trouble getting Sourceforge to even let me contact Markus Gothe, the most recent contributor, but if you'd like me to add you to a developer group or something, I can probably do it.
Sweet! Please do. I think that this is a delightful project, and I'd love to contribute to it.
Now I've added you to the developer group... Just remember to use CMake for building from trunk/boomerang. ;-)
BR,
Markus
Thanks! Will do :)
Use CMake for building... Autotools has been broken for a long time and is being removed.
