Gentle People?
I am currently running gcc 3.1 on both my Ultra 5
Solaris 8 Sparc machine and on Solaris 8 Intel machine.
The Application C source code that compiles and executes
perfectly on the Ultra 5 will not compile on the Intel machine!
The compilation errors, shown below, seem to relate to
syntax errors, and not simply missing files. Remember this
same code compiles perfectly on the Sparc machine. There is no
inline assembly language or obvious machine dependent code
involved.
Why would there be such a difference in the between gcc on
Sparc versus Intel? I would of thought that the C Parcer Defination
and thus top level compiler behavior would be identical for all gcc
versions andf platforms?
Someone mentioned that the header files are different:
I wonder why? I would of thought at that level of abstraction
they would be identical.
Would an update to a newew version of code fix this problem?
Thanks for the help.
