I'm actually able to build Octave using gcc 4.4.2 for everything except for FLTK. For that I use Apple's gcc 4.2.1. Unfortunately, I get a bus-error with Octave is run. It may be unrelated to mixing compilers, but that is my only suspect at them moment (the crash occurs in the libstdc++.dylib from gcc 4.2.1). I recall that x11 worked for FLTK 1.1.7, but haven't seen an x11 version for 1.1.9 ... thanks for the heads-up. You've saved be from the frustration of following another dead-end. Looks like I may have to wait for Apple to provide a gcc what comes with a f90 compiler. _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
