I've been able to retrieve the gcc-vms binaries from prep.ai.mit.edu, but
am having trouble with the executables which it generates. The simple
"Hello, world." file runs fine with VAX C, but the gcc-vms package
generates an executable which yields "access violation" error messages.
Has anyone else seen this and/or know what to do about it? We are running
VMS 5.1 here.
GCC.VMS-GCC] $ ty hello.c
#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
printf("Hello, world.\n");
}
GCC.VMS-GCC] $ gcc hello.c
GCC.VMS-GCC] $ link hello,sys$share:vaxcrtl/lib
GCC.VMS-GCC] $ r hello
Hello, world.

I can't remember the exact specifics of the problem, but I seem to remember that gcc isn't setting up the exit status correctly. You're not really getting an error - gcc left something in R0 that made DCL think you got an ACCVIO. Mike Iglesias University of California, Irvine
