Has anyone out there ported the C++ translator to the Silicon Graphics IRIS? I am in a strange situation where I have C++ running on a VAX under ULTRIX (4.2 BSD) and the IRIS is SysV. So far, no joy. The ..c files were created ok, and compiled with no errors on the IRIS, but the resulting translator chokes when you try to run code through it. The port was done using the information posted by Jon Leech (the Sun port), plus a problem with the declaration of sprintf. Actually, the version I am porting is release 1.0, since I am also having problems with the sprintf declaration on the ULTRIX side. Jon, I would like to get a copy of the rel. 1.0 porting summary you mentioned several months ago. So why am I using 1.0? I have a lot more experience with that release and it is dead solid on my ULTRIX machine (I went through a complete cycle of bootstrap -> translator -> bootstrap source -> bootstrap -> translator). I figure it will be easier to get rel 1.1 and above onto the IRIS if I can use the straight SysV sources.

I have a follow up question about C++ and IRISes. I am going to try using that combination, but I would like to use version 1.2, which we already have. I have not tried porting it yet, but if anyone has warnings, I would appreciate them, and if someone has C++ header files for the graphics library, I would like to see those as well. We also have HP 9000 series 300 workstations and I'm going after those too. Similar help would be welcome. Cliff Beshers Columbia University Computer Science Dept. beshers@sylvester.columbia.edu

I had few problems getting 1.1 up on our bobcats (9000/320s). One problem was that <CC/signal.h> included <sys/signal.h>, which declared signal() with no parameters, conflicting with usage in cfront's main.c. Two solutions: copy <sys/signal.h> to <CC/sys/signal.h> and correct the declarations (more general), or correct the declaration in main.c. This may be fixed in 1.2 anyway. -- Jon Leech (jon@csvax.caltech.edu || ...seismo!cit-vax!jon) Caltech Computer Science Graphics Group __@/
