Category: Build Group: Python 2.5 Status: Open Resolution: None >Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Carson Gaspar (cgaspar) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Python still uses broken -xcode option on Solaris/x86 Initial Comment: Bug 1561333 was submitted against Python 2.4 with no action, so I'm submitting a new bug against 2.5 in the hopes that someone will read it... text updated with minor corrections. Python 2.5, Solaris x86 10 Update 3, Sun Studio 11 xcode=pic32 option is not supported on Solaris x86 Sun C . Python's ./configure script on Solaris systems sets the compiler flag -xcode=pic32 when any compiler other than gcc is used. Unfortunately, the -xcode flag is only available in the sparc version of Sun C. The x86 version of Sun C does not support the -xcode option at all and generates an error that an illegal option was used. The portable flag supported on both platforms to use independent 32-bit addressing is -KPIC. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Date: 2007-03-09 08:08 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 Originator: NO One problem is that the proposed change is incorrect. According to the C User's Guide of Sun Studio 11 (document 819-3688-10), -KPIC is an obsolete option on SPARC, and should be replaced with -xcode=pic32 (section A.1.15). So I think a patch should be architecture-specific. Can somebody come up with a patch that does that? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: James Lick (jlick) Date: 2007-03-07 09:34 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=673069 Originator: NO Perhaps I was unclear in bug #1561333 that this resulted in only a warning. Actually the build will fail because of the incorrect flag. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1675511&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
