[help-cgicc] Problem compiling the cgicc library on AIX 4.3

[Naipaul Ojar]

Dear All,

I have compiled the cgicc library and developed my application on cygwin
fine, but I cannot
get the cgicc library to link under AIX. I have tried both gcc compiler and
the AIX C++ compiler
but the linker scripts give errors relating to 'ld' and 'collect2'.

This seems to be known problem, but I cannot find a solution, but I have
read of people who
have it working under AIX.



-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I have a linker problem with the gcc compiler when trying to link the cgicc
library.

I have AIX 4.3.3 as a devlopment system and I have acquired from the UCLA
site the following binaries:

1. gcc-V3.1
2. automaker 1.6.2

I am tring to make  the gnu package cgicc-3.2.1

I get two sets of problems
1. linking the so library
   generating symbol list for `libcgicc.la'
   /usr/bin/nm -B  CgiEnvironment.o CgiInput.o CgiUtils.o Cgicc.o

Here the link fails.

I do believe that the wrong linker options are used, can you comment or
provide any recommendations.
