[Ace-users] [ciao-users] Building CIAO under Fedora6 Problem

[Sowayan, Abdullah (N-DUA)]

CIAO VERSION: 0.6
TAO VERSION : 1.6
ACE VERSION : 5.6

HOST MACHINE and OPERATING SYSTEM:

Fedora Core 6


TARGET MACHINE and OPERATING SYSTEM, if different from HOST:
COMPILER NAME AND VERSION (AND PATCHLEVEL):
    
g++ (GCC) 4.1.1 20061011 (Red Hat 4.1.1-30)

THE $ACE_ROOT/ace/config.h FILE [if you use a link to a platform-
specific file, simply state which one]:

#include "ace/config-linux.h"


THE $ACE_ROOT/include/makeinclude/platform_macros.GNU FILE [if you
use a link to a platform-specific file, simply state which one
(unless this isn't used in this case, e.g., with Microsoft Visual
C++)]:

debug=1
optimize=0
gen_ostream=1
include $(ACE_ROOT)/include/makeinclude/platform_linux.GNU


CONTENTS OF $ACE_ROOT/bin/MakeProjectCreator/config/default.features
(used by MPC when you generate your own makefiles):

gen_ostream=1


AREA/CLASS/EXAMPLE AFFECTED:

$CIAO_ROOT/DAnCE/ExecutionManager


DOES THE PROBLEM AFFECT:

COMPILATION/LINKING


[Please indicate whether ACE/TAO/CIAO, your application, or both are
affected.]

CIAO


DESCRIPTION:

    ACE/TAO/CIAO compiles perfectly under Fedora Core 5. Under Fedora
Core 6 ExecutionManager doesn't compile/link properly. We generate the
make files of $CIAO_ROOT/CIAO_TAO_DAnCE.mwc and make it. We get the
following error.

make: *** [ExecutionManager] Error 2

To make this work, we define
ACE_GCC_HAS_TEMPLATE_INSTANTIATION_VISIBILITY_ATTRS to 1 as described in
Remedy's TAO Pgorammer's Guide. Now it works perfectly fine. I thought
there was a fix for this in x.6.0 where platform_g++_common.GNU would
automagically detect if one is running under FC6 or FC7 and apply the
fix.

Thanks,
Abdul
