Notes on compiling NIHCL 3.0 with Sun C++ R2.0 under SunOS 4.0.3 October 5, 1990 Problems with stdarg on SPARC ----------------------------- NIHCL 3.0 contains a hack to make stdarg work with AT&T C++ R2.0 on the SPARC architecture. This hack must be removed when compiling with Sun C++ R2.0 as follows: errfac/errors.c #ifndef SUNCC #ifdef sparc // Use magic name to make stdarg work #define sev __builtin_va_alist #endif #endif lib/Class.c #ifndef SUNCC #ifdef sparc // Use magic name to make stdarg work #define arg0 __builtin_va_alist #endif #endif lib/Exception.c #ifndef SUNCC #ifdef sparc // Use magic name to make stdarg work #define sev_ __builtin_va_alist #endif #endif ex/Vehicle.c #ifndef SUNCC #ifdef sparc // Use magic name to make stdarg work #define fname __builtin_va_alist #endif #endif Then recompile these four files with -DSUNCC. Selection of _main.c for Sun C++ R2.0 ------------------------------------- The "munch" version of lib/_main.c must be used for Sun C++ R2.0 because the "patch" version cannot initialize the static objects in a shared library, such as libC.so. Select MAIN = _main.c_m in the top level Makefile and apply the following patch to lib/Makefile: always: -rm -f targetlist *.o _main.c touch targetlist ln ${LNFLAGS} ${MAIN} _main.c ${MAKE} generic Keith Gorlen phone: (301) 496-1111 Building 12A, Room 2033 uucp: uunet!nih-csl!kgorlen National Institutes of Health Internet: kgorlen@alw.nih.gov Bethesda, MD 20892
