cppunit won't compile with RH 9.0 / gcc 3.2.2

[Anonymous]

Can someone please help me with below:

cppunit libs compile fine, but TestSuite won't compile in
test framework.  These compiled fine with RH 7.2 & 7.3 / gcc 2.96

Apparently, The fix/workaround submitted in the BUGS area by Jan Docekal fixed my problem (I've copied text below, for reference.)

Hi,

When I build cppunit-1.9.10 on RedHat Linux 8.0 I get a
compile error when compiling the DLLPluginTester (I
suspect that this error will occur on all UNIX systems,
but have no means of testing this). I strongly suspect
that this is due to the fact that this code is only
intended to run on Windows and the problem is that:

1) The configure script does not recognize this and
does not set the correct defines.

2) Setting the correct defines is not enought since the
plugin tests are not protected by #ifdefs (so you get
an error when compiling the test).

Since I'm not very uset to configure scripts (I changed
to Linux recently) I'm not able to present a correction
of the script. Instead I present a workaround that can
be used until someone more knowledgable can provide a
rela solution.

$ ./configure
$ mv src/DllPlugInTester/Makefile
src/DllPlugInTester/Makefile.useplugin
$ cat > src/DllPlugInTester/Makefile

all:
echo "No DllPlugins possible on UNIX
(RedHatLinux 8.0)"

check:
echo "No DllPlugins possible on UNIX
(RedHatLinux 8.0)"

install:
echo "No DllPlugins possible on UNIX
(RedHatLinux 8.0)"

[ctrl-D]
// What should 'DEFS' be defiend to in make commands
below on your system?!
// Check what DEFS is defined to (grep DEFS configure)
and append
// -DCPPUNIT_NO_TESTPLUGIN to that value below)
// (In my case grep found DEFS=-DHAVE_CONFIG_H)
$ make DEFS='-DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DCPPUNIT_NO_TESTPLUGIN'
$ make DEFS='-DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DCPPUNIT_NO_TESTPLUGIN' check
$ su
# make DEFS='-DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DCPPUNIT_NO_TESTPLUGIN'
install
# exit
