Re: xalanc - gcc 3.x required ?

[David N Bertoni/Cambridge/IBM]

Hi Per,

I don't know why 2.95.3. wouldn't work.  I think I have a copy on my
machine, so I'll give it a shot.  Can you give more details about the
error?

By the way, you'll need to add  -fno-elide-constructors as a compiler
option to the Makefile, if you're not using the latest CVS.  gcc 3.2 and
above implement the return value optimization, which is messing up Xalan's
reference counting mechanism.

Hi,

I just remembered that when I built from a recent CVS snapshot last week, I
had to use gcc3 - my 2.95.3 (SuSE)
complained about something or other. I built with gcc3.2.1 instead - no
probs.

I'll check this later today, but if gcc3 /is/ a requirement, shouldn't the
config be updated to check for it?


thanks,
