This is great news everybody! Another linux success story here. I managed to compile and then run eclipse on Fedora Core 4 using gcc 3.3.4 as was suggested by Vladimir. I compiled gcc 3.3.4 [libs, gcc, g++, ...] from the gcc 3.3.4 sources [which involved playing some games with packages on the FC4 system].
I was not as successful yet on Fedora Core 5 where I'm running into link issues even with compiler version 3.3.4. Its the same one that Mark mentioned yesterday w/ gcc 3.3.6 from Debian testing [discarded references in .rodata segments]. Getting gcc 3.3.4 onto Fedora Core 4 and Fedora Core 5 is non-trivial however and for me involved uninstalling some packages that I'd rather not have to uninstall. As we all know getting the multiple compiler versions to coexist on linux is kindof painful. It will be nice when these patches start rolling in thru JIRA to the Harmony codebase to support more OS and compiler versions. As the project evolves, it will be interesting to see how frequently and fully all the variations will be able to be tested. Thanks!

Great! Good progress. Here is mine: gcc (GCC) 3.4.6 (Gentoo 3.4.6-r1, ssp-3.4.5-1.0, pie-8.7.9) Gcc-4.x is masked in gentoo, so I have started with gcc-3.4.6. It was harder then before. I have made number of changes in jitrino/**/Set.h to get it compile. A few more changes in other places in jitrino, and it builds and eclipse works again. I am not sure it still builds on gcc-3.3.6. All changes should be portable to 3.3.6 IMHO except for renaming "ext/stl_hash_map.h" to "ext/hash_map.h". Looks like the compile-time check for GCC version is needed here. Is it ok to attach patch here or should I use JIRA? -- Ivan On 5/4/06, Mark Hindess <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > On 4 May 2006 at 21:43, "Ivan Volosyuk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > DRLVM compiled fine on my home computer.
