i've been trying to get this to compile for a while ... i have looked in the list archives and used google ... bleah. i hate MIPS now :) ... i've had trouble on the cobalt and now this SGI box. here's my configure line (i looked in the docs and changed -O3 to -O2, 'cause -O3 doesn't work on this machine). CC=gcc CXX=gcc CXXFLAGS=-O2 \ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql --with-thread-safe-client --with-named-thread-libs=-lpthread here's the error: >gcc -O2 -DUNDEF_THREADS_HACK -I./../include >-I../include -I./.. -I.. -I.. -O >-DDBUG_OFF -O2 -fno-implicit-templates -c mysql.cc >mysql.cc: In function `int main(int, char **)': >mysql.cc:301: ANSI C++ prohibits conversion from `(int)' to `(...)' >make[2]: *** [mysql.o] Error 1 >make[2]: Leaving directory `/disk2/usr/people/paul/mysql-3.23.35/client' >make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 >make[1]: Leaving directory `/disk2/usr/people/paul/mysql-3.23.35' >make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 I'm using gcc 2.95.1, mysql-3.23.35, irix 5.3.
