Help needed: Which gcc version supports xmemalign
Hello, I'm working on Solaris 9 and using gcc version 2.9.5. I'm facing issues with respect to memory misalignment. I'm getting SIGBUS errors. Through various websites, I found that xmemalign can be used while compiling to handle memory alignment issues. Bu the version I'm using doesn't support xmemalign option. Even gcc version 3.4.3 doesn't support. It says: gcc: language memalign=1i not recognized Can you let me know which version of gcc supports xmemalign option on solaris? Also where can I download the gcc version from?

Running FreeBSD 4 (gcc 2.x) on Sun hardware, maybe, but that doesn't seem to be the case. -- Mel Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules and never get to the software part. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Also where can I download the gcc version from? -xmemalign=ab is a Sun Studio compiler flag, not a GCC flag. If you don't already have it, you can download it free from http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/ . If for some reason you must use a GCC frontend, you can try GCC for Sparc Systems ( http://cooltools.sunsource.net/gcc/ ), which supports all the regular GCC flags plus many Sun Studio ones, including xmemalign: http://cooltools.sunsource.net/gcc/flags.html But as Mel said, this has nothing to do with FreeBSD, so this post doesn't exist. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
