Re: error compiling prolog

[Daniel Diaz]

Hi,

Your bug report is not enough precise: you should mention at least the 
architecture (using uname -a) and the Prolog file used as example. But I 
suspect a problem with the asm generated vs the as program used. Some 
days ago, Rémy Haemmerle (address@hidden)) reported to me a 
problem on sparc/solaris 9 due to a bad start comment character. This 
can be fixed changing in src/Ma2Asm/sparc_any.c
         char *comment_prefix = "#";
   by
         char *comment_prefix = "!";

You can modify this by hand or get snapshot of sources at:
ftp://ftp.inria.fr/INRIA/Projects/contraintes/gprolog/unstable/gprolog-20040129.tgz
Then redo the ./configure, make, make install.

BTW, Alex, can you try this modification on your sparc/solaris system 
and inform me if (I hope !) it works.

See you
