on a 64-bit windows, but in 32-bit mode (this certainly used to work),
trying to build HEAD.
first of all, it returns error code 128 when running "flex -V", which
means our script claims it doesn't work. Commenting out that check, it
crashes along the line of:
Running flex on src\backend\utils\misc\guc-file.l
14 [main] flex 2372 _cygtls::handle_exceptions: Exception:
STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION
Sometimes it doesn't crash, but do this instead:
Running flex on src\backend\parser\scan.l
c:\gnuwin32\bin\m4.exe:stdin:16769: ERROR: end of file in string
Project : error PRJ0002 : Error result 128 returned from
'C:\WINDOWS\SysWow64\cm
d.exe'.
If I run it a couple of times, it eventually completes. But then bombs
out because the generated files aren't complete.
Anybody else seen this? Am I forgetting something typical?
Hmm.
I don't have a 64bit Windows box, so I doubt I can test this. I can set up a
64bit VM but I'd need to get my hands on a 64bit version of Windows.
I use Amazon EC2 for this. Trivial to get up, and almost free when you
use it for very short periods of time.
Yes. I spent a few cents and a few hours wrestling with it. AFAICT your
are hosed on 64bit Windows. I can't get flex built and Cygwin is
behaving very oddly. There are indications that the problem could be
fairly deep - see
<http://www.mail-archive.com/cyg...@cygwin.com/msg102463.html>
I can try again with Cygwin 1.7. and see if that improves matters, but I
bet it doesn't.
cheers
