I am posting this for a friend without news access. Please reply/asnwer to ricardo@rle-vlsi.mit.edu Thank you for any replies. If you prefer to post I will deliver the messages to him anyway. ------------------------------------------------------------ It seems that the IBM RS600 C compiler does not generate the error messages in the format that Emacs expects, in order to allow the use of 'next-error' on the *compilation* buffer. Normally compilers generate an error message that contains a file name, a line number and some explanation about the error. Unfortunately, the IBM C compiler seems to believe that the file name are irrelevant and does not output them. Has anyone noticed this problem already ? Anyone got a fix (temporary or permanent) ? We have been using a temporary solution which involves piping the output of the C compiler through a filter that generates the proper message. We are not particularly happy about this setup as it is non-portable.
