Thanks so much Wiffel, it worked (using chicken-4.9.0.1!).
I want to go "the C way" only because I want to later compile the
generated C code for a different ISA (ALPHA).
For future reference, to aid others: my shell (zsh) somehow expanded
$CHICKEN_FILES as a single argument to gcc, and got `gcc: error:
./chicken/runtime.c ./chicken/library.c ./chicken/build-version.c: No
such file or directory` as a result. Running `gcc -static -I./chicken
array1.c ./chicken/runtime.c ./chicken/library.c
./chicken/build-version.c -O3 -fno-strict-aliasing
-fomit-frame-pointer -lm -o array1` does the trick (although it still
remains unclear to me why it is not expanded correctly).
Thank you,
Nikos

Hi Nikos,
If you don't want to use 'csc' and really want to go the 'C way', you will
need more then the 'chicken.h' file. You will need at least the following
files: 'buildtag.h', 'build-version.c', 'chicken.h', 'library.c' and
'runtime.c'. All of them can be found in the top directory of the chicken
source.
Once you have these - and put them in a subdirectory called e.g. 'chicken' -
you can compile the application like this:
chicken array1.scm -explicit-use -uses library -optimize-level 5
CHICKEN_FILES="chicken/runtime.c chicken/library.c
chicken/build-version.c"
gcc -static -I./chicken array1.c $CHICKEN_FILES -O3 -fno-strict-aliasing
-fomit-frame-pointer -lm -o array1
This will also give you a statically linked 'array1', which - in my case -
has about the same speed as the one using 'csc -O5'.
Good Luck,
Wiffel

Hi Nikos,
If you remove the definition of the 'main' function and add an expression
like this:
(time (go 200000))
and compile it with:
csc -static -O5 array1.scm
you should end up with a statically linked application 'array1'
that is optimized for speed (because of the -O5).
Runs in about half a second on my computer.
Good Luck,
Wiffel

Hello everyone,
I am trying to compile a simple scheme program down executable through
C, with no success. My program is array1 from the Kernighan and Van
Wyk Benchmarks, as implemented here [1]. I am using chicken 4.7 on
ubuntu 12.04 (details: [2]) and grabbed the chicken.h header file from
a github repo [3].
In particular, `chicken array1.scm` creates array1.c, but running `gcc
array1.c` throws a big number of "undefined reference to .." ending
with "collect2: ld returned 1 exit status" [4].
So that people help out most, my eventual goal is to compile a
statically linked executable binary. Ideally, therefore, I would need
to have a "chicken.c" or the chicken runtime linked in.
Thanks so much!
Nikos
