I would add this was the GNU compiler. Would it not be possible to break a 110,000 line source file up into smaller pieces? I would imagine it is a nightmare navigating a file that long. Split it up into 4 pieces and it should avoid thousands of warning messages. > SQLite should still work on HPUX, despite the avalanche of warnings. > You just won't get useful information out of a symbolic debugger. fair enough. > If in the future you encounter problems in HPUX that we cannot > replicate on one of our local machines (linux, mac, windows, on x86 > and x86_64) then we may well take you up on your offer to debug on > HPUX/pa-risc.
