Hi guys,



Three months ago I played with pkgsrc a bit to try install some new software.  Grant Beattie was very helpfull and I wanted to thank him and everyone else who helped me on the list.  I now have time to revisit the gcj build problem.  Through trial and error I discovered that I could build a functional GCC with a working GCJ from the tar ball  on the GCC site (gcc-3.3.4.tgz).  Experiments with libtool, LIBRARY_PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, LD_INCLUDE_PATH, crle, etc etc.  seemed to have no effect.  the same error message always occured.


checking for iconv... yes
checking for iconv declaration...
         extern size_t iconv (iconv_t cd, const char * *inbuf, size_t *inbytesleft, char * *outbuf, size_t *outbytesleft);
checking whether getenv is declared... yes
checking whether atol is declared... yes

then later:


checking for iconv... (cached) yes
checking for iconv declaration... (cached)
         extern size_t iconv (iconv_t cd, const char * *inbuf, size_t *inbytesleft, char * *outbuf, size_t *outbytesleft);
checking for nl_langinfo and CODESET... yes
checking for LC_MESSAGES... yes





checking for iconv... yes
checking for iconv declaration...
         extern size_t iconv (iconv_t cd, const char * *inbuf, size_t *inbytesleft, char * *outbuf, size_t *outbytesleft);
./configure: test: argument expected

*** Error code 2

Stop.
bmake: stopped in /usr/pkgsrc/lang/gcc3-java
*** Error code 1

Stop.
bmake: stopped in /usr/pkgsrc/lang/gcc3-java

The code that gave the trouble was:
#include "confdefs.h"

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <iconv.h>
extern
#ifdef __cplusplus
"C"
#endif
#if defined(__STDC__) || defined(__cplusplus)
size_t iconv (iconv_t cd, const char * *inbuf, size_t *inbytesleft, char * *outbuf, size_t *outbytesleft);
#else
size_t iconv();
#endif

int main() {

; return 0; }


I discovered that I could get this to compile cleanly by setting the environment variable:
C_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/pkg/gcc3/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2/3.3.4/include:/usr/pkg/gcc3/include:/usr/pkg/include:/usr/include

The compile now stops at this configure code like so:

int main() {
iconv_t cd = iconv_open("","");
       iconv(cd,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL);
       iconv_close(cd);
; return 0; }

In an effort to debug the issue I removed all references to solaris iconv and libiconv from the machine (don't worry I tarred them and will put them back).

The symbols are defined in libintl.a
[root@otto gcc3-java]# nm /usr/pkg/lib/libintl.a | grep iconv

Here we have both the native and the pkgsrc versions.  it looks to me like it is finding the native version first in the path.  Removing the native binary had no effect.  This is the verbose compile for the code above:

When I built gcj without errors, the only configure argument I gave was:
--with-libiconv-prefix=/usr/pkg
the command I used to build  was:
make CFLAGS='-O' LIBCFLAGS='-g -O2' LIBCXXFLAGS='-g -O2 -fno-implicit-templates' bootstrap-lean

If you have succeded in comiling gcc on  solaris 9 with pkgsrc, could you please post your working configurations, or help me diagnose this problem?


Many Thanks,
