Hi

I have a Solaris 9 installation on intel and have extracted
gcc-3.4.2.tar.gz.When I am trying to configure I get the following error
message.

sun# ../configure
loading cache ./config.cache
checking host system type... i386-pc-solaris2.9
checking target system type... i386-pc-solaris2.9
checking build system type... i386-pc-solaris2.9
checking for a BSD compatible install... ../install-sh -c
../configure: cc: not found
*** The command 'cc -o conftest -g   conftest.c' failed.
*** You must set the environment variable CC to a working compiler.
sun#

Could you pls help

Hi,

seems that you are missing a C compiler. For installing
GCC you need a working C compiler on your system since GCC is
distributed as source code and not as binary package. Probably
you didn't install the software development support on your
Solaris machine. Check this with your sysadmin or look into
manuals and install a C compiler native to Solaris.

Cheers

Tom,

   Try

   $ man bash        # Or csh, tcsh, etc.

   Then search for PATH.

   If "echo $PATH" doesn't show the directory in which you placed the
   compiler, you now know what to do. (If the set command is a mystery,
   then it's time for a book on unix and the shell. ;-)

Regards,
Erik

Hello,

   What is meant by putting cc or gcc in your path when installing on a 
native system?  I get an error dealing with this when I try to 
configure, but how can I put cc or gcc in my path when it hasn't been 
built yet?  Don't quite understand.  Any help would be greatly 
appreciate.  Thanks.

Hi...

I am trying to install the GNU GCC compiler version 3.0.2.
I have a previous installation of GCC (version 2.8.1). I downloaded the
source and while configuring set the prefix path to ../gcc (not default)
. After which I gave the command ./configure. That worked fine
without any errors. On the ./bootstrap command, I got the
following error:


I got lot of warnings while compiling that says that trying to compare
unsigned with signed ..???

and another similar warning message looked like this

"
/d05/gcc-3.0/gcc/config/sparc/sparc.c:8060: warning: integer constant is
unsigned in ANSI C, signed with -traditional
"

and there are lots of these warning messagess ..!!

and finally the compilation ended with this message..


gcc  -DIN_GCC -DSVR4   -g -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes
-Wmissing-prototypes -Wtraditional  -DHAVE_CONFIG_H  -o cc1 \

Could anybody help me out of this situation ..

Hi...
I am trying to install the GNU GCC compiler version 3.0.2.
I have cygwin installed and a previous installation of GCC
(version 2.9.5). I downloaded the source from CVS into a
directory called gcc in the root directory of cygwin. After
which I gave the command ./configure. That worked fine
without any errors. On the ./bootstrap command, I get the
following error:

I have the gettext utility installed as well. 
Can someone help me out by replying to this email address
with some suggestions?
