Thanks for your quick reply Steve.  We are proceeding with xlc as you 
suggested.  I have a feeling though it being aix and all, I will be posting 
again shortly...

RE: Compiling qpid on aix 6.1 with gcc 4.8.2 (or gcc 4.8.3)

[Steve Huston]

Hi Chris,

I don't have any insight into the gcc error. However, I've spent many years 
working on AIX with C++. I've had my share of long and unfruitful nights 
dealing with gcc. IBM has people involved with gcc and it still seems to have 
never-ending problems for some reason.

For my 2 cents, I recommend biting the bullet and going with xlC++.

FWIW,

Subject: Compiling qpid on aix 6.1 with gcc 4.8.2 (or gcc 4.8.3)

Hello,

We have been struggling mightily to get qpid to compile on aix 6.1 with gcc.  
We have tried both 4.8.2 and 4.8.3 and the error we have run into is:

/home/dbapi/enquesta_5_0/qpid-cpp-0.30/src/qpid/sys/posix/PosixPoller.cpp:796:2:
 internal compiler error: in function_and_variable_visibility, at ipa.c:868
}}
  ^
libbacktrace could not find executable to open
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See  for instructions.
make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 1.

This appears to be a problem with gcc itself rather than qpid code, but since 
we are utilizing the latest version of the gcc compiler I could find for aix 
and it still does not work, any help in providing a workaround would be greatly 
appreciated.  My coworker was able to identify the problematic lines.  Two of 
the errors appear to be related to the use of the PollerHandleDeletionManager 
(Line 701 and 712) and  Event (Line 729)

PollerHandleDeletionManager.destroyThreadState();  (2 occurrences)
Event event = impl->eventStream.next(timeout);  (1 occurrence)

When he commented out those lines (and additional affected code in the case of 
the Event line), the compilation of PosixPoller.cpp succeeded.  We surmised 
that it has something to do with gcc handling of namespaces, but could not come 
up with a way to get around this issue.  We are planning on trying IBM's xlc 
compiler, but we have invested a lot of time in this already and would like to 
avoid xlc licensing costs if possible.

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

Chris Whelan
