ICC Compilers on Linux

2003-01-04 Thread Bill Wendling
Hi all,

What is the status of libtool support for the icc compiler on Linux?
Right now, it causes a problem because the "wl" variable in the generated
libtool file should be set to "-Wl," instead of "", which is what it
currently does. I tried it with libtool 1.4.3 and autoconf 2.56 (2.57
didn't work for me) and it still had a problem.

Is there someone working on this?

Thanks!

Bill,

There is no support for icc in 1.4.3, but there is support in CVS
Libtool.

bash versus printf -exported_symbol on OSF

2003-01-04 Thread Kevin Ryde
For cxx on "osf4* | osf5*", libtool uses

printf "-exported_symbol "

as part of archive_expsym_cmds.  Unfortunately bash 2.05b objects to
this with

printf: -e: invalid option

The bash doco doesn't mention any options for printf, but I suppose it
parses them in the usual way.  Unlike /usr/bin/printf on OSF, which is
happy just to print "-exported..."

Using "printf -- -exported_symbol " seems to work with both bash and
/usr/bin/printf.  Unless anyone knows better perhaps this would be a
good change.

Ah, sorry, I just tried "dash", the Almquist shell on Debian, and its
builtin gives "--" for "printf --".  A better way to avoid any doubt
might be

printf "%cexported_symbol " -

Any particular problem with:

  echo '-exported_symbol '

???  I would favor not supporting a shell that has an echo
that doesn't print all its arguments.  (Only excepting the
two character argument strings, "-n", "-e" and "-E" because
of an historical mistake.)

Offhand I can't give an example problem, but autoconf "Limitations of
Builtins" specifically advises against trying to echo anything
starting with "-".

Problem with libtool

2003-01-04 Thread Pierre
Hi,

When trying to build some apps, I got this :

[...]
checking dynamic linker characteristics... Linux ld.so
checking if libtool supports shared libraries... yes

*** Warning: the command libtool uses to detect shared libraries,
*** /usr/bin/file, produces output that libtool cannot recognize.
*** The result is that libtool may fail to recognize shared libraries
*** as such.  This will affect the creation of libtool libraries that
*** depend on shared libraries, but programs linked with such libtool
*** libraries will work regardless of this problem.  Nevertheless, you
*** may want to report the problem to your system manager and/or to
*** [EMAIL PROTECTED]

checking whether to build shared libraries... yes
checking whether to build static libraries... yes
[...]

Nothing is in the config.log file about this...
I have compiled the last libtool (1.4.3).
The 'file' command is located at /usr/local/bin on my system.
I don't see where the problem can be...



It would be great if you could help me with this !

Best regards,

Pierre.
