[open-cobol-list] Compiling OC on OS X Leopard box

[Duke Normandin]

Hello OC list....

I really-really-REALLY hope that Roger While is reading this
list... ;)

I've been trying to compile OC1.0 cleanly on my OS X 10.5.7 box. NO
JOY!

So far, I haven't got past the "configure" file. It chokes here:

checking for ld used by
GCC... /usr/libexec/gcc/i686-apple-darwin9/4.0.1/ld
checking if the linker (/usr/libexec/gcc/i686-apple-darwin9/4.0.1/ld)
is GNU ld... no
checking for shared library run path origin... done
checking for iconv... yes
checking how to link with libiconv... -liconv
checking for iconv declaration...
extern size_t iconv (iconv_t cd, char * *inbuf, size_t
*inbytesleft, char * *outbuf, size_t *outbytesleft);
checking for nl_langinfo and CODESET... yes
checking for getopt_long_only... yes
checking kpathsea/getopt.h usability... no
checking kpathsea/getopt.h presence... no
checking for kpathsea/getopt.h... no
checking getopt.h usability... yes
checking getopt.h presence... yes
checking for getopt.h... yes
checking gmp.h usability... no
checking gmp.h presence... no
checking for gmp.h... no
configure: error: gmp.h is required

However, the file(s) exist on my system:

address@hidden ~/downloads/open-cobol-1.0
09:55 am >> ls /opt/local/include/gmp*
/opt/local/include/gmp.h   /opt/local/include/gmpxx.h

Before I run "configure", I execute the following:

export CPPFLAGS='$CPPFLAGS -I/opt/local/include'

But obviously "configure" is still not finding it. WTF???

I found the following that may be of help to me:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2122139&group_id=34923&atid=412913

but I need further direction on the contents of Darren Bane's message.

Specifically, where do I do the following:

3. Set the environment up as follows:

CC=llvm-gcc
export CC
CFLAGS=-Os -DNDEBUG -pipe -I/opt/local/include
-I/opt/local/include/db46
-march=nocona
export CFLAGS
LDFLAGS=-L/opt/local/lib -L/opt/local/lib/db46
export LDFLAGS
[/quote]

Should I be editing the "configure" or "makefile" to do this?

I haven't done much programming in C, so I'm stumbling around using
the tools.

BTW, I'm also new to COBOL in general, so it would be extra cool to
get OC fired-up so I can learn this thing. TIA...
