Hello,
I have a problem with the gcc 1.39 and the g++ from the koeln ftp site.
If I try to compile the following program with g++:
#include<stream.h>
int main(){ cout << "Hello World\n"; }
All works niecly until the link run. Then the linker says: Bogon alert: wrote
xxx Symbols, yyy expected. And the resulting file is not a TOS executable
(TOS error 66: not an executable program).
The same happens, when I compile a normal gcc program with the gdb option "-g".
Then there is another number of wrote/expected symbols, but the resulting
program again is not executable.
Has anyone encountered this problem and perhaps already solved it?

The Problem is , that the linker does not handle the DRI-compatible symboltable in the correct way, so try using the -s option to advice the linker to strip off the symboltable. Bye the way, I've got the stuff from koeln, too, and I dont have that problem; maybe you are not using the linker provided in the package in the cs-directory at the site. U.Kuehn

You also need to apply the diffs to gcc in that update to fully utilize -g. Since then there have been two update, update9 and update10. update10 contains the diffs to bring up gcc-1.40 on the ST. i recommend using that. all these updates are available from atari.archive.umich.edu either via ftp or via their mail request server. cheers, -- -- bang: uunet!cadence!bammi jwahar r. bammi domain: bammi@cadence.com GEnie: J.Bammi CIS: 71515,155
