[Opentnl-general] Problems compiling on FreeBSD

[Aaron D. <aa...@da...>]

I am running FreeBSD5.4-RELEASE and GCC 3.4.2.  I have been trying to 
compile the TNL library but with a number of difficulties.

1) I extracted the source and typed 'gmake.'
2) The first error I encounter is:
$ gmake
gmake[1]: Entering directory `/home/aaron/devscratch/tnl/tnl/tnl'
g++ -g -DTNL_DEBUG -DTNL_ENABLE_LOGGING -I../libtomcrypt  -c  assert.cpp
In file included from tnlUDP.h:35,
                  from tnl.h:51,
                  from assert.cpp:27:
tnlVector.h: In member function `T& TNL::Vector<T>::front()':
tnlVector.h:302: error: there are no arguments to `begin' that depend on 
a template parameter, so a declaration of `begin' must be available
tnlVector.h:302: error: (if you use `-fpermissive', G++ will accept your 
code, but allowing the use of an undeclared name is deprecated)
tnlVector.h: In member function `const T& TNL::Vector<T>::front() const':
tnlVector.h:307: error: there are no arguments to `begin' that depend on 
a template parameter, so a declaration of `begin' must be available
tnlVector.h: In member function `T& TNL::Vector<T>::back()':
tnlVector.h:312: error: there are no arguments to `end' that depend on a 
template parameter, so a declaration of `end' must be available
tnlVector.h: In member function `const T& TNL::Vector<T>::back() const':
tnlVector.h:317: error: there are no arguments to `end' that depend on a 
template parameter, so a declaration of `end' must be available
gmake[1]: *** [assert.o] Error 1

I didn't understand this error so added the -fpermissive directive to 
the tnl/Makefile.

3) I now get almost to the very end but the compile halts at udp.cpp 
with the following (above warnings snipped):
udp.cpp:105:21: wsipx.h: No such file or directory
udp.cpp: At global scope:
udp.cpp:158: error: `SOCKADDR' has not been declared
udp.cpp:158: error: `socklen_t' has not been declared
udp.cpp:159: warning: ISO C++ forbids declaration of `sockAddr' with no type
udp.cpp:159: warning: ISO C++ forbids declaration of `addressSize' with 
no type
udp.cpp: In function `void TNL::TNLToSocketAddress(const TNL::Address&, 
int*, int*)':
udp.cpp:162: error: `SOCKADDR_IN' undeclared (first use this function)
udp.cpp:162: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once 
for each function it appears in.)
udp.cpp:163: error: expected primary-expression before ')' token
udp.cpp:163: error: expected `)' before "sockAddr"
udp.cpp:164: error: expected primary-expression before ')' token
udp.cpp:164: error: expected `)' before "sockAddr"
udp.cpp:165: error: expected primary-expression before ')' token
udp.cpp:165: error: expected `)' before "sockAddr"
udp.cpp:171: error: `SOCKADDR_IPX' undeclared (first use this function)
--HUGE SNIP--
gmake[1]: *** [udp.o] Error 1

So I now add the -DNO_IPX_SUPPORT to the tnl/Makefile (even though 
udp.cpp appears to define it already).

4) The compiler no longer looks for wsipx.h, but I still get all the 
other errors.  So I now add -DTNL_OS_LINUX to the tnl/Makefile.

5) I shout for joy as the libtnl is finally linked but then frown deeply 
when I get the following error in the libtomcrypt directory:
cc -c -I./ -Wall -Wsign-compare -W -Wno-unused -Wshadow -Werror -Os   -c 
-o tiger.o tiger.c
tiger.c:544: warning: conflicting types for built-in function 'round'
gmake[1]: *** [tiger.o] Error 1

6) At this point I choose to give up and ask for assistance.

The documentation and website say that FreeBSD is supported, but it 
doesn't appear so.  I would love to add an opentnl port to the Ports 
tree, but I need to overcome these issues first.  Any help you can offer 
would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you for your time.
