[gnu.emacs] shared libraries

pjr@jjcac.uucp (Paul Rak) (07/23/89)

Has anyone been successful compiling GNU emacs with shared libraries
on a 3B2, or in using optimization?

Our system is a 3B2/600 running UNIX SVR3.1.1 and CPLU 4.2, and
Emacs compiles ok (as far as I can tell, with very little testing)
but if I try to change the standard library in m-att3b.h to -lc_s
from -lc, the make bombs out trying to run ./temacs. Am I just being
a nimrod trying to change it here, or is it a hopeless cause trying
to use shared libes?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I'm still a novice porting
stuff.  Also, I was curious if anyone had successfully used -O on
emacs.

Final Question (I hope) is who is working on the GCC for the 3B2?
In the recent GNU newsletter it was mentioned that a port was in
the works for this machine, and we would definitely like a more
ANSI compatible compiler, along with the G++.  I'd be interested
in helping out, in whatever capacity I could, considering my
limited experience.

Thanx much,

Paul Rak
