Description apatkar 2000-07-09 22:15:37 CDT

Hi,

I faced this problem while trying to install the ACE on my SUN Sparc machine. 
Following all the instructions given under heading 
"Building and Installing ACE on UNIX" on page "http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE_wrappers/ACE-INSTALL.html#aceinstall"

I had problems when I executed make command after doing all the other setting indicated.

While it was building the .cpp files using SunC++ 4.2 compiler, it constantly gave me the following errors:
For example, while compiling file TS_Server_Handler.cpp, the errors were:
1. OS.h: line 3016: Error: Only one of a set of overloaded functions can be "C" or "Pascal"
2. Signal.i: line 151: Error: Cannot assign void(*)() to void(*)(int)
3. SvcHandler.h: line 146: Error: An overloadable operator was expected instead of "delete"
4. SvcHandler.h: line 146: Error: Illegal parameter type for static operator delete(void*,void*)

Hope u would look into the problem ASAP. Waiting for u'r reply

This doesn't appear to be a problem with the ACE Autoconf Setup so I changed it 
to "ACE netsvcs," which appears to be where your problem occured.

According to your bug report, this problem occurred in ACE 4.6.43.  That 
version of ACE is obsolete by now.  Does this problem occur in ACE 5.1.x for 
you?  We don't see any such problem with Sun C++ 4.2 with recent versions of 
ACE.

Hi

As u suggested, the component might be ACE netsvcs. I had downloaded the file 
called 'ACE-5.1.tar.gz'. After extracting it into ace/ directory, I ran the make 
command after setting the environment variables. I don't know which component is 
involved in this zipped file.

I am sorry about the version I had indicated. Its 5.1.x.

Do I have to do anything more than what is indicated on the website page I 
had mentioned in my earlier mail?

Have you been able to compile ACE/TAO yet?  We're unable to reproduce the 
problem you encountered.

This looks like a known bug with Sun CC 4.2.  If your Sun CC 4.2
isn't at patchlevel 104631-02, as noted in ACE_wrappers/ACE-INSTALL.html,
you will likely have build problems.  CC -V to see your patchlevel.
