#1846: win32 compile fails on sysmem.c on mingw gcc 4.5 (w. workaround)
----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
Reporter: ronaldws | Type: bug
Status: new | Priority: normal
Milestone: 2.10 | Component: build
Version: 2.10.0 | Severity: medium
Keywords: | Lang:
Patch: | Platform: win32
----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
mingw32-make fails with diagnostic output included below.
As a workaround if I change line 26 of config/gen/platform/win32/sysmem.c
from:
#if defined __MINGW32__ && __GNUC__ < 4
to:
#if defined __MINGW32__ /* && __GNUC__ < 4 */
then parrot builds OK and tests out mostly OK. Rebuild requires
mingw32-make realclean and perl Configure.pl followed by mingw32-make.
Some preprocessing of sysmem.c seems to mean that mingw32-make clean is
not enough.
Fixing this properly will require someone with a better understanding of
mingw gcc access to the MEMORYSTATUSEX structure across various compiler
versions.
Diagnostic output:
config/gen/platform/win32/sysmem.c: In function 'Parrot_sysmem_amount':
config/gen/platform/win32/sysmem.c:57:5: error: 'MEMORYSTATUSEX'
undeclared (first use in this function)
config/gen/platform/win32/sysmem.c:57:5: note: each undeclared identifier
is reported only once for each function it appears in
config/gen/platform/win32/sysmem.c:57:20: error: expected ';' before
'statex'
config/gen/platform/win32/sysmem.c:59:5: error: 'statex' undeclared (first
use in this function)
