Category: Build Group: Platform-specific Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Harri Pasanen (harripasanen) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: configure problem on HP-UX 11.11 Initial Comment: Python 2.4c1 has this problem (but if I recall, so did 2.3.3)_ Using gcc 3.3.3 to build on HP-UX 11.11, the configure out of the box is a bit off, resulting in a failed build, due to missing thread symbols: /usr/ccs/bin/ld: Unsatisfied symbols: PyThread_acquire_lock (first referenced in libpython2.4.a(import.o)) (code) PyThread_exit_thread (first referenced in libpython2.4.a(threadmodule.o)) (code) PyThread_allocate_lock (first referenced in libpython2.4.a(import.o)) (code) PyThread_free_lock (first referenced in libpython2.4.a(threadmodule.o)) (code) PyThread_start_new_thread (first referenced in libpython2.4.a(threadmodule.o)) (code) PyThread_release_lock (first referenced in libpython2.4.a(import.o)) (code) PyThread_get_thread_ident (first referenced in libpython2.4.a(import.o)) (code) PyThread__init_thread (first referenced in libpython2.4.a(thread.o)) (code) collect2: ld returned 1 exit status A workaround is to manually edit pyconfig.h, adding #define _POSIX_THREADS (The reason it is not picked up is that unistd.h on HP-UX has this comment: /************************************************************************ * The following defines are specified in the standard, but are not yet * implemented: * * _POSIX_THREADS can't be defined until all * features are implemented ) The implementation seems however to be sufficiently complete to permit compiling and running Python with _POSIX_THREADS. While I'm editing pyconfig.h, I also comment out _POSIX_C_SOURCE definition, as it will result in lots of compilation warnings, of the style: gcc -pthread -c -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -I. -I../Python-2.4c1/Include -DPy_BUILD_CORE -o Objects/frameobject.o ../Python-2.4c1/Objects/frameobject.c In file included from ../Python-2.4c1/Include/Python.h:8, from ../Python-2.4c1/Objects/frameobject.c:4: pyconfig.h:835:1: warning: "_POSIX_C_SOURCE" redefined <command line>:6:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition ------------ So, to recapitulate: After configure, add #define _POSIX_THREADS and comment out #define _POSIX_C_SOURCE 200112L That will give you a Python working rather well, with "make test" producing: 251 tests OK. 1 test failed: test_pty 38 tests skipped: test_aepack test_al test_applesingle test_bsddb test_bsddb185 test_bsddb3 test_cd test_cl test_codecmaps_cn test_codecmaps_hk test_codecmaps_jp test_codecmaps_kr test_codecmaps_tw test_curses test_dl test_gdbm test_gl test_imgfile test_largefile test_linuxaudiodev test_locale test_macfs test_macostools test_nis test_normalization test_ossaudiodev test_pep277 test_plistlib test_scriptpackages test_socket_ssl test_socketserver test_sunaudiodev test_tcl test_timeout test_urllib2net test_urllibnet test_winreg test_winsound 1 skip unexpected on hp-ux11: test_tcl ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Date: 2004-12-24 00:50 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 Can you find out why gcc says that "_POSIX_C_SOURCE" is defined on the command line? On the command line you provide, it isn't. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1071597&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
