It came to my mind because building on Sun, I had a bunch of problems using
./configure, including a core dump related with HAVE___THREAD. After
switching to ./autogen.sh, I've got a working set of execs (I'll share
results later).
Here are notes about building Rel 59735 on HP. Actually, all issues (except
the 1st one) I had also during build of 2.5.2.26540.
1) As I mentioned, I don't have automake*, etc. installed on this box, so
I had to use ./configure. But it was not present in .../, so I've copied it
from corresponding AIX build.
Using ./configure also required to copy other 3 files from AIX into
.../builds/make.new: config.sub, config.h.in and config.guess. After that,
./configure passed.
2) Error related with icu library (I had it during previous builds
2.5.2.26540 also):
Warning: Found path 'uconvmsg_' in file name. Assuming compatibility (-E)
mode.
gmake[6]: Entering directory
`/build/fasbuild/ws/TEST/Firebird-2.5.2.26540-0/extern/icu/source/extra/uconv'
gmake[6]: *** No rule to make target `uconvmsg/uconvmsg_dat.o)', needed by
`uconvmsg/libuconvmsg.a'. Stop.
...
The following trick worked for me:
I went to
.../extern/icu/source
and run
./configure --disable-extras
gmake
Then copied *.* from .../extern/icu/source/lib to .../gen/firebird/lib.
Then went back to .../ and run gmake for the whole project.
3) Errors related with guid.h (I had it during previous builds 2.5.2.26540
also, this error doesn't happen on AIX, only warning):
----------------------------------------------
/../jrd/os/guid.h", line 51: warning #2064-D: declaration does
not declare anything
struct // Compatible with Win32 GUID struct layout.
^
"../src/include/../jrd/os/guid.h", line 52: warning #3055-D: types cannot be
declared in anonymous unions
{
^
"../src/jrd/os/posix/guid.cpp", line 73: error #2135: class "FB_GUID" has no
member "data3"
guid->data3 = (4 << 12) | (guid->data3 & 0xFFF); // version 4
^
...
"../src/jrd/os/posix/guid.cpp", line 74: error #2135: class "FB_GUID" has no
member "data4"
guid->data4[0] = 0x80 | (guid->data4[0] & 0x3F); // variant
^
4 errors detected in the compilation of "../src/jrd/os/posix/guid.cpp".
----------------------------------------------
I just commented struct { } (probably it could be embrased with #ifdef .../
#endif if it's for Windows compatibility):
//struct // Compatible with Win32 GUID struct layout.
//{
ULONG data1;
USHORT data2;
USHORT data3;
UCHAR data4[8];
//};
According to the code which uses this structure, looks like it's safe.
4) ld: Unrecognized argument: +concatrpath (I had it during previous
builds 2.5.2.26540 also):
Looks like this linker option (+concatrpath) is valid for HP-UX PA RISC,
but not IA64.
To resolve, I just removed this part of linker flags definition:
"-Wl,+concatrpath" in
.../builds/posix/prefix.hpux_aCC
and
.../gen/make.platform
5) Error related with ./builds/posix/empty.vers (I had it during previous
builds 2.5.2.26540 also):
---
aCC +DD64 -Wl,-c,../builds/posix/empty.vers -D_REENTRANT -mt -Wl,+b,lib
-Wl,+b,intl -AA +e ../temp/std/remote/server_stub.o -o
../gen/firebird/bin/fb_inet_server -L../gen/firebird/lib -lfbembed -lrt
-latomic -lm -lcurses -licuuc -licudata -licui18n
ld: I/O error, file "{": No such file or directory
Fatal error.
---
Again, looks like aCC doesn't understand it. As I did before, just
commented the content of this file to resolve this error.
I'm pretty sure that you would find more elegant ways to resolve these
issues.
Thanks,
Vadim.
