Hi;
Thanks for the reply. I tried to compile the simple program exactly as you
had it and got the same errors:
# gcc -o pt_test ./pt_test.c
In file included from ./pt_test.c:1:
/usr/include/pthread.h:666: error: expected ')' before '*' token
/usr/include/pthread.h:669: error: expected ')' before '*' token
[[snip]]
/usr/include/pthread.h:710: error: expected ')' before '*' token
I'm unsure how to proceed from here. Does that mean that gcc doesn't like
the AIX headers? Would downloading a different version of gcc work? There
are something like four AIX systems here, all 5.3, and none of them have a
compiler purchased from IBM...
Any hint on how to proceed will be greatly appreciated.
