Hi, I'm trying to compile SWFTools on Linux by using an alternative compiler to gcc and I got the following message:
checking build system type... x86_64-pc-none checking host system type... mips-unknown-elf checking for mips-unknown-elf-gcc... mips-unknown-elf-gcc checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking for suffix of executables... checking whether we are cross compiling... yes checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes checking whether mips-unknown-elf-gcc accepts -g... yes checking for mips-unknown-elf-gcc option to accept ISO C89... unsupported checking whether we are using the GNU C++ compiler... yes checking whether mips-unknown-elf-g++ accepts -g... yes checking whether gcc supports lazy variable declaration... no *************************************************** * Your gcc is too old to compile this! * * The last version compileable by this compiler is * swftools 0.7.0, which you can download from * http://www.swftools.org/swftools-0.7.0.tar.gz * . * Newer versions require at least gcc 3.0.0 *************************************************** I've read in this post that any alternative to gcc results in the error above (for clang on Mac OS X Lion): *"Of course the error message is wrong; swftools is just under the mistaken impression that every compiler one might use to compile it is gcc. In this case, we're using clang; clang's version number happens to be lower than gcc's, though it is just as (or more) capable than gcc."* http://trac.macports.org/ticket/32732 How that validation can be bypassed? Many thanks, Pablo.
