Post install smoke test (or "Oh no not again")

2003-03-11 Thread Bruce Adams [TEPG Sunbury]
Hi, I just did a fresh installation of gcc on another machine and had an "oh no not again" moment. Attempting to compile: int main(int argc,char** argv) { return 0; } //main Gives the output: gcc hello.o -o hello.exe -lstdc++ hello.o(.text+0x0):fake: multiple definition of `_mainCRTStar

Why is gcc 3.2 prerelease?

2003-03-05 Thread Bruce Adams [TEPG Sunbury]
Hi, The answer to this question ought to be in the documentation somewhere but I couldn't find it. The version of gcc installed by setup is: gcc version 3.2 20020818 (prerelease) Ignoring the 2.9x version. Why are we still using a prerelease version? According to gcc.gnu.org the versions

Hi, I have lately been having real problems with vanilla gcc 3.2 generating executables that crash. Its manifestation does not seem to follow an obvious pattern and changing the options to gcc (e.g. -ggdb versus -gstabs or no -g at all) does not make any difference. Does anybody have any idea

Java (2 of 3): where is gij?

2003-01-06 Thread Bruce Adams
Hi, Just a quick question (for the FAQ?). I notice that gij (the GNU java virtual machine) is not installed along with gcj. I presume this is because the M$ and Sun JVMs are perfectly adequate for the task. I thought this would be documented somewhere. Anyone know?

Hi, This ought to be in the FAQ but I couldn't find it. I can't seem to get a hello world program to work as an executable though it works fine with the JVM. I've seen this asked before but not the answer. See code below. Hello.java(note: case is important in this filename) ==
