Irix support


Hi all,

I was wondering what the status of gcj (or gcc) was on Irix 6.5 at the moment ?

I downloaded and attempted to compile gcc-3.3 with java (just in case the gcc-docs were out of date :-) but it fails to compile even the C++ compiler, triggering the error ...

#error BUFF_SIZE_UPPER_BOUND must be at least as large as MIN_BUFF_SIZE!

... with stage1/xgcc when doing the bootstrap. The first-pass compiles fine, so I guess there's an error in the guts of the compiler. Certainly the include file looks as though it should compile (ie: I can't see any reason why BUFF_SIZE_UPPER_BOUND should not be (in fact equal to) MIN_BUFF_SIZE)

So, is anyone working/using gcj under Irix ? If so, are there patches I can get hold of ?

The only thing stopping me from adopting gcj is the Irix port (I work in post-production, and there's a lot of SGI's around...) Windows & Linux work just fine :-) Not sure about MacOS X yet...

If there's no-one currently using gcj on Irix, is there a summary somewhere of what doesn't work ? If it's not too hard to fix, I'll give it a go, though I'm hardly a gcc expert :-(

Cheers,
	Simon
