[gobo-eiffel-develop] GEC bug report

[Wolfgang J. <wo....@ka...>]

Hi all,

today I downloaded the newest GEC version from GIT and tried to install 
it from scratch,
i.e. by running $GOBO/work/bootstrap/bootstrap.sh. It was, and still is, 
really terrible.

There are syntax errors in files gec2.c, gec17.c, then syntax errors in 
files
$GOBO/tool/gec/runtime/c/eif_file.c and eif_dir.c (probably causing the 
errors in the first files),
finally in the external C code of 
$GOBO/library/free_elks/kernel/file_info.e.

After fixing the syntax errors and adding option
   <option name="link" value="-pthread"/>
to the "gc" option in file $GOBO/src/gec/system.xace (probably 
Unix/Linux specific)
compilation works to some extend but issuing many warnings and finally
does crash definitively because of "missing kernel class *UNKOWN*".
The attachment contains the compilation messages.

Best regards
WJ
