Hi, The script config_office/configure is checking for gcc's exception handling method - sjlj or dwarf2.
I wonder if it is working or not and where the result is actually used. MinGW gcc compiler is using sjlj exception handling that is known to be incompatible with alloca(). So I introduced BROKEN_ALLOCA macro. Experimental gcc 4.2.1 is now available from MinGW community with dwarf2. So I think it good to use the result of configure script to use alloca() or malloc(). However, the script is not working with MinGW and I suspect that it is not working at all in other platforms. It is checking the existence of sjthrow function but the function is not seen in the recent source in gcc. Any information? BTW OpenBSD's gcc compiler is also using sjlj exception handling and the porter, if any, may face the similar problem. ---- Takashi Ono(HK Freak) mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Personal Address, checked every morning/evening and holidays) mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Address for business, checked every working days) http://www.hkfreak.net --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
