newbie building gpc
by al 30 Sep '99

30 Sep '99

Hi, I am trying to build gpc with gcc 2.95 for UnixWare and Tru64 UNIX. I have two questions... 1. In the INSTALL instructions is says to apply a patch to gcc but I can't find one for gcc 2.95. Is a patch needed for this version? 2. When I try a "make LANGUAGES=pascal" things crank along for a minute or two and then I get a message indicating that it does not know how to make pascal. Does anyone know what I need to do to get past this? Here are the last few lines generated by the make... gcc -c -DIN_GCC -DHAIFA -g -O2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I./config -I./../include obstack.c gcc -DIN_GCC -DHAIFA -g -O2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -o cccp cccp.o cexp.o intl.o prefix.o version.o mbchar.o obstack.o -lmld ../libiberty/libiberty.a rm -f cpp ln cccp cpp (cd intl && make all) Make: Don't know how to make pascal. Stop. *** Exit 1 Stop. Thanks, Al Tingey Computer Administrator University of Utah Human Genetics Dept. al(a)genetics.utah.edu

can't compile gpc-19990813

Hello, until today I prefered gpc's binary distribution. But there is no recent gpc binary for x86 Linux.

Well, at least the 3rd mechanism is specified in the Extended Pascal standard (ISO 10206), while your way (derving the file name from the variable name) is not standardized and therefore also compiler dependent...

Problems with Pascal and gcc-2.95.1
by Geraldo Kern 29 Sep '99

29 Sep '99

HI Someone, I can't install the Gnu Pascal over the gcc-2.95.1. I tried to patch the diffs files, but I didn't obtain success. *** *** ./configure detected GCC version 2.95.1. *** GPC 2.1 requires one of the following versions of GCC sources to build: *** *** 2.8.1 *** egcs-2.91.57 *** egcs-2.91.60 *** egcs-2.92.27 *** egcs-2.92.33 *** *** (You can try to patch GCC manually by typing a command like *** `patch -p1 < p/diffs/gcc-2.8.1.diff' and patching possible rejects *** by hand before you run `./configure' again.) *** If someone knows how to install in this version of gcc, please send me a emails. thanks in advice, -- Geraldo Kern kern(a)iprj.uerj.br

Hi Peter, thanks for your answers. Peter Gerwinski wrote: >Jochen wrote: >> first of all: Is there an uptodate archive of the mailing list ? >Currently there isn't. To all: Should there be one? I don't know what you guys need, and that's what counts, after all. Still it would make life easier for people like me encountering some problems, 'cause I could skim the archive first (so a searchable archive would be really nice :-). Also I don't know if you send replies to the list only - in that case it would help, since not everybody like me wants to subscribe the list (there are to many already). With an archive I would just recheck every few days wethere there is a answer. >> I try to compile a gcc-2.95.1 patched/extended by the gpc-19990813 >> sources/patch.

Well, I read about that alpha version - just wanted to look in and thought I let you know... I read some stuff on the egcs ml as well. Anyhow, it hasn't worked with egcs-1.1.2 (I think that was the one I used) for me as well. I don't have any egcs sources around right now, but I will get back to try it and will send in the problems I get. (IIRC it was just the same, not sure about that, though.) Right now I am using the binaries from the gpc ftp page, they are working nice for me. Next thing I would like to see is a gcc-3.0 including gpc :-) Btw: If this is still of any interest, I could help setting up a cvs repository for gpc. In case it will be incorporated into gcc really soon, there is no need, but otherwise... I have a 486 that is our dedicated cvs server, I could create a repository there, that is a slow but doable solution. Moreover I could set it up somewhere else, if you provide me with a user login and the admin is willing to do some work as well. Anyway: Good work guys, keep on going, -- Jochen Jochen.Kuepper(a)FernUni-Hagen.de http://www-public.rz.uni-duesseldorf.de/~jochen

compiler optimization
by Russ Whitaker 27 Sep '99

27 Sep '99

Hi Usuing gcc-2.8.1 and i586-pc-linux-gnu, compiled gpc with no optimization, O1, and O2 (except part where O2 would crash) Then used gpc to compile 4 of the demo programs. While there was little difference between the no optimazation and the O2 version, the O1 version produced programs that were significantly smaller: pi 248155 bytes power 253838 bytes schemademo 152992 bytes stringschemademo 153690 bytes just thought you'd like to know thanks, Russ <russwhit(a)mind.net>

Yes, they're listed on our To-Do list (http://agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de/~gnu-pascal/todo.html), as one of the few missing features to be implemented before the next release. Actually, Peter is already working on changes to the set handling code, and these routines will be part of the changes.
