Subject: compilation problem under Solaris
Date: Mon, 30 Jun 2008 14:41:03 +0200

I'm compiling Emacs 22.2 under Sparc/Solaris 9. I've got librairies
under non-standard directories, so I've set LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS with -I
and -L options to include these directories. The path to those
directories has the string "sparc" within. In src/Makefile, "sparc" has
been replaced by "1 " on the lines defining ALL_CFLAGS and LIBW. I've
corrected it manually and it compiles fine.
Here's an example if my explanation isn't clear. I set :
LDFLAGS="-L/Produits/publics/sparc.SunOS.5.8/tiff/3.8.2/lib"

in src/Makefile :
LIBW="-L/Produits/publics/1 .SunOS.5.8/tiff/3.8.2/lib"

Please try this patch to Emacs 22's configure, followed by
re-configuring.

It didn't work. I launched configure with this command :

LDFLAGS="-L/Produits/publics/sparc.SunOS.5.8/tiff/3.8.2/lib -L/Produits/publics/sparc.SunOS.5.7/jpeg/6b/lib -L/Produits/publics/sparc.SunOS.5.8/zlib/1.2.3/lib -L/Produits/publics/sparc.SunOS.5.8/libpng/1.2.24/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I/Produits/publics/sparc.SunOS.5.8/tiff/3.8.2/include -I/Produits/publics/sparc.SunOS.5.7/jpeg/6b/include -I/Produits/publics/sparc.SunOS.5.8/zlib/1.2.3/include -I/Produits/publics/sparc.SunOS.5.8/libpng/1.2.24/include" ./configure --with-gtk --prefix=/Produits/publics/sparc.SunOS.5.9/emacs/22.2

I've attached the config.log and the src/Makefile

Hmph.

Can you edit the patched version of configure? Find the line near the
end that says

echo creating src/Makefile

Add immediately under this:

echo "cpp_undefs = $cpp_undefs"

Then reconfigure and post just the output of that echo command.

Thanks.

Sorry, but I don't see how that's possible if you apply the patch I
originally gave. Eg on Solaris 5.10, I get something of the form:

cpp_undefs = [...] -Usparc -Usun -Usolaris2

OK, I got it. The patch got screwed when you emailed it. Starting line 11, the # were at the end of the previous line instead of the beginning of the line. Maybe it would be more secure to send patch as attached text file instead of in the body of the message.
Anyway, once corrected, cpp_undefs is correctly defined:
cpp_undefs =  -UProduits -Utmp -Uemacs   -Usparc -Usun -Usolaris2  -Usparc -Usun -Usolaris2

But compilation still fails. Instead of being replaced by "1 ", the "sparc" string is just deleted. See attached src/Makefile.

OK, I think I see what's going on. src/m/sparc.h does:

#ifndef sparc
#define sparc
#endif

And src/Makefile.c includes config.h which includes this file.

Thus there seems to be no way to fix this through use of -U etc on the
cpp line.

By far the easiest way for you to fix this is just to edit your src
and lib-src Makefile by hand.

In terms of fixing Emacs for the future:

1) #ifdef sparc is only used in two places in the C code, so we could
replace it with __sparc__ or somesuch. Does this seem OK to people?

2) replace this crazy cpp stuff with autoconf.

Of course.  This has been going on and should keep going until we can
finally get rid of it.
I.e. I encourage people to install incremental changes to reduce the use
of CPP and use autoconf in its place.  If someone wants to write a full
replacement (rather than incremental patches), that'd be good as well,
tho we'd probably want to wait for post-Emacs-23 before considering
installing it.

That's exactly what I did even before reporting the bug. I just thought I should report this. And I didn't have to edit lib-src/Makefile, only src/Makefile.

I know. Thanks for taking the time to report it.

If you like, you could check that the configure patch, plus changing
files in src/ to use __sparc__ rather than sparc, works:

src/m/sparc.h:

/* Say this machine is a sparc */

#ifndef __sparc__
#define __sparc__
#endif


src/alloc.c, src/ecrt0.c, unexsunos4.c:

Change #ifdef sparc to #ifdef __sparc__

This should not be needed, the compiler defines __sparc__ by default.
