Hi.

You didn't get those .bff files from the GCC site, since we don't make
binary distributions.  You should contact whoever made them available
for installation instructions.

Re: Install error

[David Edelsohn]

	I assume that you are referring to GCC for AIX and that you
downloaded the pre-built installp images from http://www-frec.bull.com/ .
gcc-2.8.1 has not been distributed by the Bull website for a long time, so
I am surprised that you are trying to us it.  You do not mention which
release of AIX you are using, but I assume it is AIX 4.1 from the error
you received.

	GCC requires the system header files and libraries in order to
operate.  The errors you received from installp refer to some base AIX
filesets which are not installed on your system and need to be installed
before you can install GCC.  You can install those filesets from the AIX
installation CDs; you do not need a compiler license in order to install
and use the header files and libraries.

	Additionally, I would suggest that you use gcc-2.95.2 (or
egcs-1.1.2 if you cannot find a distribution of gcc-2.95 for AIX 4.1)
instead of gcc-2.8.1 which did not support AIX very well.

sh undefined

[Saqueb Ali]

I am running AIX 4.2.1 and I am now loading gcc2.95.2. After the 
installation was over, I got quite a few error messages on the SMIT window 
similar to
***
Could not load program /usr/local/lib/gcc-2.95.2/fixincl
Symbol putc_unlocked in sh is undefined
Error was: Exec format error
Cleaning up DONE files.
Removing unneeded directories:
Could not load program /usr/local/bin/gcc
Symbol putc_unlocked in sh is undefined
Error was: Exec format error
***

I also try to run ./dofix under /usr/local/lib/gcc-2.95.2 but I get same 
error. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

You're using a binary installation some else provided. Please
talk to them about these problems. However,

> Symbol putc_unlocked in sh is undefined
Looks like a bug in your AIX installation. Does /bin/sh work at
all?

compiler error

[Saqueb Ali]

I installed gcc 2.95.2 for AIX 4.3. MY OS is also AIX 4.3. It installed 
without giving an error message. When I tried to use gcc to compile a 
program, it gives error

configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot 
create executables.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

	Do you have the AIX bind_cmds fileset installed to provide the
assembler and linker?  Do you have the development libraries installed?
If I remember from last time, your AIX system did not have most of the
development filesets installed -- it was set up as a turnkey system.

Re: compiler error

[Saqueb Ali]

Hi. Sorry to bother you again. But, I need some further help. I already 
upgraded to AIX 4.3.3 from 4.2 and bind_cmds filesets got installed with 
it. When you say "development libraries installed", can you tell me what 
kind of file sets are we looking for or any names. Any help is appreciated. 
Thanks.

	Why don't you try running your GCC installation directly and see
what error message it is producing.  The above error message is from the
configure script of some application and is not providing any detail about
what is wrong.  How about trying to compile a "Hello, World!" program?  If
you need to, us "gcc -v" to get more detail and see which phase of
compiling a simple application is failing.  Then you should know what
system utility or library is missing.

	You installed GCC in the default location?  You have gcc and the
AIX standard directories in your path?  The installed GCC has correct
permissions for you to be able to execute all of the programs?

	This has nothing to do with an AIX installation error.  You have
used an installation image that was built for a more recent version of AIX
than you are running.  Those errors mean that the binary is trying to
access an older version of an AIX library.  AIX only provides backward
compatibility, not forward compatibility.  The rest of the installation
will not work either.  I am surprised that the installation proceeded at
all.

	The Bull website only has gcc-2.95.2 for AIX 4.3, the last time I
checked, and you say that you are running AIX 4.2.1 which ae not
compatible.  I believe that there is an egcs-1.1.2 binary for AIX 4.1.5
and above which should work.  You then can build gcc-2.95.2 for AIX 4.2.1
yourself.

Compiler Error

[Richard Xu]

Hi,
We've downloaded the GCC 2.95.2 to compile a C file. It was
     compiled successfully with the old version of GCC compiler. But we got
     error messages while trying to compile it with GCC 2.95.2. Please tell
     us where the problem is. Or please provide us the user name and
     password to access the ftp://egcs.cygnus.com:/pub/egcs/releases .
     so that we can download an older version of GCC. Thank you very much.

You have configured gcc to expect/use gas, but it is finding the HP
assembler first.  See the FAQ.

Use the g++ command to link a C++ program, not gcc.
