Hello - I'm not sure I've got the right mailing list for this question, but I thought I'd try.
I have downloaded glib-2.18.0 on Linux FC4, and am trying to cross-compile with an arm-linux-gcc compiler. Most of the stuff goes smoothly until I hit the atomic_spin_trylock in the gatomic.c file. This function has some embedded assembly (denoted with the asm keyword). The particular error that I get is: /bin/sh ../libtool --tag=CC --mode=compile arm-linux-gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -I.. -DG_LOG_DOMAIN=\"GLib\" -DG_DISABLE_CAST_CHECKS -DG_DISABLE_DEPRECATED -DGLIB_COMPILATION -DPCRE_STATIC -DG_DISABLE_SINGLE_INCLUDES -pthread -mbig-endian -std=c99 -Wall -MT gatomic.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/gatomic.Tpo -c -o gatomic.lo gatomic.c arm-linux-gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -I.. -DG_LOG_DOMAIN=\"GLib\" -DG_DISABLE_CAST_CHECKS -DG_DISABLE_DEPRECATED -DGLIB_COMPILATION -DPCRE_STATIC -DG_DISABLE_SINGLE_INCLUDES -pthread -mbig-endian -std=c99 -Wall -MT gatomic.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/gatomic.Tpo -c gatomic.c -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/gatomic.o gatomic.c: In function `atomic_spin_trylock': gatomic.c:570: `asm' undeclared (first use in this function) gatomic.c:570: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once gatomic.c:570: for each function it appears in.) gatomic.c:570: parse error before "volatile" I'm guessing that my arm-linux-gcc compiler is not compatible with the embedded assembly directive, and that's why I'm getting the error. However, I thought I'd check to see if maybe there was some other setting that might make this work. Very kind regards, John Peterson
