does anybody know of a compatibility package of gcc version 3.x for Suse 10.x ? I've looked into the opensuse repositories but only found a compat-g77 package. Is there something similar for the C compiler? I need this for an older program which doesn't compile with gcc 4.x.
FIX YOUR CODE.
Fix your tone.
The tone was right (delicious!), but maybe the loudness was not tuned to innocent people's ears. But it was tuned to the theme.
FIX YOUR ERRORS, or at least SHOW THEM IN DETAIL...
Maybe I haven't made myself clear enough... The code in question is no code which I have written (in this case I wouldn't ask such a question)
Surely. The usual scenario. What else...
but from SUN (the J2SE 1.4 sourcecode). I need to compile this for some research I'm currently doing at work. So I can assure you that hell will freeze over before I go and fix their bugs because I haven't all day for this task to complete. And no, I can't use a newer J2SE source distribution (J2SE 5 or 6) because version 1.4 is required. I hope this clears things up a little bit.
Why do you need to run the compiling step on a "new" environment?
P.S.: FIX YOUR CODE/FIX YOUR ERRORS might be a cool Geek statement(tm) (like RTFM you know) but this should be the tone grownups communicate with each other. Regardless of the 'loudness' ;-)
P.P.S.: Sorry, couldn't resist
It is OK. Why shouldn't you test your mental borders. ;-)) [Sorry too] ;-)) 10.x comes with java 1.5, so probably you are totally beneath the road. But who knows - FIX YOUR ERRORS, or at least SHOW THEM IN DETAIL... F.e. I once had tried to compile wu-ftpd-2.4.2 under SuSE-Linux-8.2 (while it was already obsoleted), and - guess what - I got stuck with obscure compiler error messages. With my detailed error messages, the SuSE gcc experts did help to reach the goal. I bet they (in fact, he - Philipp) would not even have "clicked in" if he had not seen the exact compiler messages. So again (last time now, really): FIX YOUR ERRORS, or at least SHOW THEM IN DETAIL... Cheers -e -- Eberhard Moenkeberg (emoenke@gwdg.de, em@kki.org)
