[Tioga-users] Tioga on Sun machines

[Fleck Jean-Julien]

Hello everybody !


I have been trying to compile Tioga on a Sun machine for some time, and even
if it seemed to compile (sort of) fine, every script using a Dvector or a
Dtable produced a segmentation fault and made irb crash.

Working together with Vince, he finally found the solution which was to add
the two lines

#undef PRIVATE
#define PRIVATE static

just after

#include <namespace.h>

in the files split/Flate/flate_intern.h, split/Dvector/dvector_intern.h and
split/Dtable/dtable_intern.h

On his advices, I produced a .patch file joined to this mail that could be
used before compiling Tioga if you ever need to make it run on a Sun
Machine. Assuming you are in the tioga/ directory where the script
QUICK_INSTALL is, apply

cat visibility.patch | patch -p0

(or -p1 if the first one does not work) and then compile normally, there
should not be any more problem.


Just for information,

Cheers,

JJ
