See the file INSTALL for basic instructions. A short explanation for
|
|
each non-standard configure option follows.
|
|
|
|
--disable-typeinfo-name
|
|
|
|
Some output from the library will use a class name to distinguish
|
|
between tests. Normally, the Run-Time Type Information (RTTI) system
|
|
is used (specifically, the type_info::name() function) to generate the
|
|
name. Some compilers return human-readable names via this interface.
|
|
Other compilers do not.
|
|
|
|
If your compiler does not generate a pleasing class name, specify
|
|
this option; the names will be generated by other means. The names
|
|
are used only for diagnostic purposes -- no functionality will be
|
|
lost nor gained by using this option.

System Notes
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
cygwin
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
We have a number of reports that the shared library fails to
|
|
build properly. This may manifest itself as a failure to
|
|
build and run the test suite ("make check").
|
|
|
|
The workaround is to build a static library only. Configure using
|
|
|
|
./configure --disable-shared
|
|
|
|
Then build normally.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
DEC alpha with cxx V6.1-029 and RogueWave STL
|
|
---------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
A user reports that you have to issue the command
|
|
|
|
export DEC_CXX="-D__USE_STD_IOSTREAM -D__STD_MS"
|
|
|
|
in order to get ostream defined in namespace std. Otherwise, the
|
|
build reports the following error.
|
|
|
|
Cannot define CppUnit::OStringStream
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the compiler complains about 'exception', it may help to
|
|
re-run configure with
|
|
|
|
CPPFLAGS='-U_OSF_SOURCE'
|
|
|
|
on the configure line. Please let us know about your experiences
|
|
with this platform so that we can keep this information up-to-date.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
IRIX 6 / MIPSpro compiler
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
The MIPSpro compiler requires the "-LANG:std" flag to enable the
|
|
standard C++ library. You must set the CC variable when you configure,
|
|
as follows
|
|
./configure CC='CC -LANG:std'
|
|
|
|
There is a bug in released versions of libtool prevents the -LANG flag
|
|
from being properly passed during the linking stage. To check if you
|
|
have this bug, examine the output of "grep 'no.*irix' libtool". If
|
|
you see a line like "no/*-*-irix*)" then you suffer from the bug. [A
|
|
fixed version of libtool will look like "no/*-*-irix* | /*-*-irix*)".]
|
|
|
|
If your libtool script suffers from the bug, open it in an editor,
|
|
find the first line that contains "with_gcc", and change it to
|
|
read "with_gcc=no".
|
|
|
|
The MIPSpro version 7.30 is able to compile cppunit proper, but will
|
|
fail to compile the example testsuite. I am assuming this is due
|
|
to known bugs in the compiler (7.30 is not the latest version).
|
|
The library appears to function OK. Please let us know if you find
|
|
it otherwise.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Solaris/Sun CC compiler
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
Use the following configure line:
|
|
|
|
./configure CXX=CC CXXFLAGS="-pta -instances=static -mt
|
|
-xtarget=generic -g -features=no%transitions
|
|
-xildoff" LD=CC LDFLAGS=-xildoff
|
|
|
|
In Forte C++ compiler for Solaris all the linking has to go via
|
|
CC and ar, ld should not be run directly. For archive use CC -xar and
|
|
for linking and generating the .so use CC -G
|
|
|
|
Notes: CC 5.5 don't need that much flag to compile correctly. Though, I'm not
|
|
sure what are the required one.
|
|
|
|
|
|
AIX
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
./configure --disable-shared
|
|
|
|
The autogen tools don't seem to generate correctly script to handle dynamic linking.
|
|
If anyone know how to get it working, please contact us.
|
|
|
|
|
|
HP-UX
|
|
-----
|
|
Use the following options with configure to
|
|
enable the use of aCC and cc for the compilation of
|
|
CppUnit:
|
|
./configure --enable-hpuxshl CC=cc CXX=aCC CXXFLAGS="-AA"
|
|
|
|
AA sets all the necessary flags to enable namespaces,
|
|
stl v2,....
|
|
