RE: issues with SFL and Solaris 2.7 SC5.0 Compiler

Robert, 
I've now installed Sun Workshop 6, and after much mucking about with
compiler licenses, the changes we discussed are working. 
I have some more ( relatively trivial ) which I can forward when I get
everything compiling OK. 
I could really do with some specialist knowledge here. Can you point me to
instructions to build enough of the SFL libraries to allow me to do SMIME
encryption and decryption with BSAFE and BSAFE only ?. I've gone through the
SMP components manual date 9 Feb 2K1 and the readmes in the release but not
found instructions on how to partition the builds between different crypto
libraries. 

cheers
Mike

Sorry about the empty response.

Michael:

I'm sorry I may not be of much help without your specific compiler here.
You are fighting some naive class design issues from before I understood the
class inheritance.  I have seen this issue before, the fix was to simply
make the multiple inherited component "virtual"; I hope this fixes your
problem.  Try changing the definition in "sm_api.h":

	class CSM_MsgToSign : public CSM_CommonData, protected
CSM_DataToSign
to
	class CSM_MsgToSign : virtual public CSM_CommonData, protected
CSM_DataToSign

	class CSM_MsgToVerify : public CSM_CommonData, public
CSM_DataToVerify
to
	class CSM_MsgToVerify : virtual public CSM_CommonData, public
CSM_DataToVerify

Please let me know if this works, I will update our baseline.  It should
also work on the 1st problem you mention (what was your fix for this
error?).

VDA.

Subject: issues with SFL and Solaris 2.7 SC5.0 Compiler


Dear all 
I am attempting to build the SFL S/MIME install on a Solaris 2.7 box
using Sun Workshop 5.0 
However there seems to be a few issues in terms of : 

iostream/istream/ostream header includes need updating in asn_config.h
where the std names have changed. 

The multiple inheritance of CSM_CommonData in SMIME/include/sm_api.h
into CSM_MsgToAddSignatures via CSM_MsgToVerify and CSM_MsgToSign causes
compilation errors due to ? strict C++ checking causing the compiler to
look for CSM_CommonData::UpdateEncodedBlob( CSM_MsgToAddSignatures,
CSMContent*) methods rather than resolve the
CSM_CommonData::UpdateEncodedBlob( CSM_Content* ) method as expected. 
And this is just in the header file for the ctors. 
There is also the issue where I've had to insert the (int) cast in
sm_Attr.cpp: 1557 & (?)950-ish because of stricter type checking.
e.g. in 'if(*SnaccRR.receiptsFrom->allOrFirstTier == (int)
AllOrFirstTier::firstTierRecipients)' 

I'm flagging these because they may also turn up when the newer version
of gcc arrives this year. 

Currently I'm stuck on a compiler error in the same vein which throws
out *pCSM_MsgToAddSignatures.MsgToSign::SetContentBlob( CSM_Content* )
which again the compiler refuses to acknowledge  - looking for a method
of signature 'MsgToSign::SetContentBlob( CSM_MsgToAddSignatures,
CSM_Content* )';

All these are from the latest releases from the  SFL site - version 1.9
etc. 
I'd be appreciative of any help here..
Cheers
Mike
