Also, and more importantly, this section of code has several commented out

I'm nearly there with having it working with manually hacked Makefiles etc. Some tweaks will be needed to the Configure tests (not too many), but I'd just like to summarise what I believe to be the 'big picture' in a single email. I guess the main complexity comes from potentially having 3 C compilers and 2 linkers. We have: * The Bundled C compiler: which comes as standard with HP-UX, is a KR compiler and is pretty much just intended to generate a new kernel. It won't be up to compiling parrot. Because it is not an ANSI compliant compiler, and does not pretend to be one It's braindead and useless * A purchased HP C compiler. This is invoked with 'c89' or 'cc -Aa'. Full C compiler. cc -Ae * GNU C. Invoked with gcc or perhaps cc Most of us know and love it. On HP-UX, please use 3.0.4 or newer For 64bit compiles on HP-UX 11i, do NOT use 4.0.0 * HP-UX linker, ld. Not sure if there is a bundled/commercial version. there is only one. Please advice HP-UX users to check if they have applied the most recent patches, which makes a difference * GNU ld. Not available for 32bit builds on HP-UX gcc may be configured to use the HP-UX or GNU linker backends. HP-UX also has some quirks: * Shared libraries *must* have execute permissions * All C files which are to go into shared libraries *must* all be compiled with 'Position Independent Code' flags -z +Z for HP C -fPIC for gcc * The system ld doesn't export symbols in the main executable to be visible to shared libraries by default * The HP-UX linker does not like -g Yes, it does, but not in combination with -O2 or higher HP C and GNU gcc with -O1 both work fine with -g * [Some strange alignment rules?] I'll now try to clearly and concisely summarise the flags that are required for compilation. HP-UX C compiler: cc: c89 or 'cc -Aa' -Ae cc_shared: +z (should be Perl's cccdlflags variable) -z +Z (capital Z) ccdlflags(?): -Wl,-E if used with HP-UX ld -Ae will automatically pass this to ld GCC compiler: cc: cc or gcc cc_shared: -fpic (Perl's cccdlflags variable) -fPIC ccdlflags(?): -Wl,-E if used with HP-UX ld HP-UX ld: ld: ld ld_share_flags: -b GNU ld: ld: ld ld_share_flags: -shared The -Wl,-E (actually -E passed to ld) tells the linker to export symbols from the resulting binary so that they are available to dynamically loaded libraries. -fPIC is possible instead of -fpic, and +Z -z is better than -z (thanks H.Merijn), but we'd use whatever Perl supplies. The most recent perl5 hints for HP-UX already do so IIRC There basically seem to be a few assumptions in the configured system which are a bit gcc/linux-centric. For instance, the following files need to be compiled with $(cc_shared) as they make their way into dynamic libraries: src/extend.o src/nci_test.o dynclasses/*.o The parrot executable need to be linked with (what I've called above) $(ccdlflags) for dynclasses to work.

although at the expense of needing more bytecode.
And fewer temporaries, by translating this:
@a = @b ^+ @c ^+ @d;
into this:
for @a; @b; @c ; @d - $a, $b, $c, $d is rw {
$d = $a + $b + $c;
$a = $b + $c + $d;
I might hope
}

Re: cvs snapshots

It is available at http://cvs.perl.org/snapshots/parrot/ Any chance on rsync? If so, I might set up another smoke suite to bother you with reports :) If Mattia keeps the test suite in shape, I /will/ try to initiate a smoke. At first this sounds simple, but when the base conf uses the perl conf that is used for the perl that is called on configure.pl, I will either have to change some of the flags used (for 64bit env's) or rebuilt perl for each parrot smoke. Which in fact would be fun to integrate into the bleadperl smoke :) that is, test parrot for every bleadperl conf tested.
