[help-cgicc] Generating the cgicc library on AIX 4.3.3

[Naipaul Ojar]

Dear All,

I have switched to the Visual Age C/C++ compiler to generate/link the
library. I ran into some problems generating the library - numerous
warnings of
duplicated declarations but I persisted.

I let the make  file compile the test app, but here I have compilations
errors:-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Making all in demo
   make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/cgicc-3.2.1/demo'
   source='test.cpp' object='test.o' libtool=no \
   depfile='.deps/test.Po' tmpdepfile='.deps/test.TPo' \
   depmode=aix /bin/sh ../support/depcomp \
   xlC_r -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../cgicc -I.. -I..    -g -c -o test.o
   `test -f test.cpp || echo './'`test.cpp
   "../cgicc/HTMLBooleanElement.h", line 187.6: 1540-0431 (S) The
   declarator cannot be qualified with the enclosing namespace "cgicc".
   make[1]: *** [test.o] Error 1
   make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/cgicc-3.2.1/demo'
   make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1


>From the HTMLBooleanElement.h file:
-------------------------------------------------------
   template<class Tag>
   //bool CGICCNS HTMLBooleanElement<Tag>::sState = false;
   bool HTMLBooleanElement<Tag>::sState = false;


This resulted in the following:
-----------------------------------------
   Making all in demo
   make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/cgicc-3.2.1/demo'
   source='test.cpp' object='test.o' libtool=no \

   depmode=aix /bin/sh ../support/depcomp \
   xlC_r -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../cgicc -I.. -I..    -g -c -o test.o
   `test -f test.cpp || echo './'`test.cpp
   /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link xlC_r  -g   -o test.cgi  test.o
   ../cgicc/libcgicc.la
   xlC_r -g -o .libs/test.cgi test.o  -L../cgicc/.libs -lcgicc
   ld: 0711-362 ERROR: Glink code cannot be added for function: _ptrgl
           This function is used by compilers and must be called directly.
   make[1]: *** [test.cgi] Error 8
   make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/cgicc-3.2.1/demo'


All comments are welcome to resolve these errors -  I fear that the true
link errors have not yet been identified but ...
