-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- As I tried to test out dhr's spi.c fix, I snagged a copy of GCC 3.3-4 from RedHat's RawHide, and installed it on my RH 8.0 based system. spi.c now compiles fine, however the rest of FreeS/WAN doesn't. It seems the log() function (defined in programs/pluto/log.h) now conflicts with a new built-in function called.... log(). log() in GCC 3.3 is the logarithmic function, which dhr tells me used to be in math.h, but now appears built it. Some research found this: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2002-07/msg00537.html Which seems to be the patch applied. I haven't checked the source, however the end result is the same - we conflict with the built-in function. Not good. I chatted with dhr about this via IRC, and asked him if I were to change the name of the log() function, what would be it become. plog() was the answer (same idea as passter()). So, after changing every call to log() (there are quite a few) we now have a building tree again. Do not sed /log/plog/ this as there are many calls to DBG_log() and loglog() you'll make things much worse! Note this impacts the ALG patches, and X.509 patches. Probably NAT-T, but it doesn't exist for 2.00 yet, so I'll fix that when I come to it. GCC 3.3 always creates even more warning, which I'll post messages about as I get around to finding + fixing them. FYI: SFS 2.00 tree now has this change implemented across all patches. Invidual patches against each file can be grabbed via CVSWeb if needed: http://www.freeswan.ca/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/freeswan-2/programs/pluto/?cvsroot=SuperFree%2FSWAN They are marked with "log -> plog (dhr recommendation) to make gcc 3.3 happy. I hate gcc." - -- Ken Bantoft Super FreeS/WAN Maintainer [email protected] http://www.freeswan.ca PGP Key: finger [email protected] Dijkstra probably hates me. -- Linus Torvalds, in kernel/sched.c -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3ia Charset: noconv iQCVAwUBPuFMWliWUusaxGxpAQGQ0AP/Ti+Ylx/3MmxCiEULOv2eryYh2IDMBSsO b3Vs4190OF6ISKciUrQSXzxogcZRp72m5Me7zoHk0zF7zZVV/VQ3UfpLjf8jGkyT mrwk07E2oaDrE0cJVbFxoUf+N7wSmLm6jbo0FY/MjgU0AI2CEewo0i7yaLyimFsw vm41rvwJ+Ug= =aj8b -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
