I am trying to build pcomm 1.1 on SCO Xenix 286 v2.2.1 with Development
System v2.2.1, and when I start compiling as follows:
cc -g -O -Ml2e -c chg_dir.c
chg_dir.c
chg_dir.c(10) : error 54: expected `(' to follow `chtype'
chg_dir.c(12) : error 59: syntax error : `{'
[ all the rest deleted ]
Now, the first occurrence I can find of chtype is in the header file
misc.h where there are defines: (I _do_ define OLDCURSES; SCO Xenix
terminfo has incompletenesses and conflicts...)
#ifdef OLDCURSES
typedef char chtype
#endif /* OLDCURSES */
#ifdef ACS_HLINE
#define VERT (chtype)0
#define HORZ (chtype)0
#else /* ACS_HLINE */
#define VERT (chtype)'|'
#define HORZ (chtype)'-'
#define ACS_VLINE (chtype)'|'
#define ACS_HLINE (chtype)'-'
#endif /* ACS_HLINE */
So. Perhaps someone can offer why this is failing?
Thanks

The SCO Xenix terminfo is complete. You DO have to declare a manifest define in the compile line: -DM_TERMINFO as well as include the correct library: -ltinfo. Using these options I have had no problems compiling and executing pcomm. I have seen a number of messages from people trying to get pcomm to compile under SCO Xenix. I have therefore included below a shar file which contains a makefile and a config.h for pcomm, patch level 3. Unpack this file after unpacking the pcomm files. Then compile it.

During my sometimes futile attempts at actually generating an absolute load module, i have had many oppurtunitites of fiddle with the various flags. For some reason, which i can't really fathom, using the -M2 flag sometimes generates (apparently) spurious errors. Usually of the type that you see above. I suspect that use of -M2 turns on some sort of different inclusion mechanism for include files. For example, i frequently find param.h (i think it was param.h) to generate errors just like the above. Much as i hated to do it (cause i want to squeeze out as much speed as i can on my labouring system (;-(), i have turned off -M2 and the errors went away. So try that and see if helps.... Now, a question. Just how much difference is there between running a -M2 program and a plain old 8086 (or whatever the default code generation is -M0?) program in SCO xenix (i have 2.1.3). Anyone have stats on this? derek -- Derek Terveer det@hawkmoon.MN.ORG w(612)681-6986 h(612)688-0667 "A proper king is crowned" -- Thomas B. Costain

(please no flames on the exactness of the identifiers; I'm doing this from memory). Also, -M1 or -M2 causes the compiler to use the 80186 and beyond ENTER and LEAVE instructions, which speeds up subroutine linkage quite a bit. So -M2 does improve execution speed. -- Warren Tucker ...!{akgua,allegra,amd,hplabs,ihnp4,seismo,ut-ngp}!gatech!gitpyr!edp

I had the 2.1.4 developement system with my 2.1.3 runtime. There
was a problem with the automatically defined manifests. It seems that
under -M2, /bin/cc defines both M_I86 AND M_I286. The caused files
like types.h and param.h to blow up when compiled. The fix was to USE -M2
and also undefine M_I86 (-UM_I86) on the cc command line.
I have since upgraded to 2.2.1, and whatever developement system
comes with that. My /bin/cc now only defines M_I286 (or, my
include files are smart enough to cope with both M_I86/M_I286
defined).
If you don't want to upgrade, and you don't feel like passing
the -UM_I86 switch to cc, then edit your include files so that
lines like
#ifdef M_I86
read
#if M_I86 && ! M_I286
I think the only files that need changing are types.h and param.h.
