problems compiling ruby 1.8.1 on AIX 4.3.3

Hi,

when I run configure, I get:

Stop.
make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 1.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Have you installed required stuff (libraries etc.) properly?

Or, try

./cnofigure --disable-pthread CPPFLAGS=-DNDEBUG

Have you installed required stuff (libraries etc.) properly?

What required libraries?? On Solaris 8, all I had to do was:
# configure
# make
# make install

and it all worked fine.

Or, try

./cnofigure --disable-pthread CPPFLAGS=-DNDEBUG

I did and still get errors:

to summarize:

* on AIX 4.3.3/GCC I get:

DO I need to set LIBPATH or ???

Still confused,

Hi,

What required libraries??

I'm not sure what you need to use pthread on AIX.

* on AIX 4.3.3/GCC I get:
/usr/ccs/bin/ld -brtl -eInit_rmd160 -bI:/home/paul/ruby-1.8.1/ruby.imp
-bM:SRE
-T512 -H512 -lc -L"/home/paul/ruby-1.8.1"

rmd160hl.o
-ldl -lcrypt -lm -lc
ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .__eprintf

This symbol is for assert()?

* on {AIX 4.3.3/5.1} / IBM VAC I get:

"/home/paul/ruby-1.8.1/ruby.h", line 65.1: 1506-224 (I) Incorrect
#pragma ignored.

#pragma alloca is valid for only gcc?

/usr/ccs/bin/ld -brtl -eInit_curses

ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .resizeterm

I have no idea why extconf detected them but ld failed. Can
you show mkmf.rb under ext/curses?

OK, I finally got it to compile .. had to undef some stuff.

Running some basic ruby scripts seems to work, but the tcl/tk module
seems broken:

/home/ivr_tools/local/lib/ruby/1.8/powerpc-aix4.3.3.0/tcltklib.so:
tcltklib: tcltk_stubs init error(-1) (LoadError)
from /home/ivr_tools/local/lib/ruby/1.8/tk.rb:7
from ./tkballoonhelp.rb:13:in `require'
from ./tkballoonhelp.rb:13

During the build of ext/tcltklib and ext/tk, I saw no warnings or
errors.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Paul

How did you change?

Running some basic ruby scripts seems to work, but the tcl/tk module
seems broken:

/home/ivr_tools/local/lib/ruby/1.8/powerpc-aix4.3.3.0/tcltklib.so:
tcltklib: tcltk_stubs init error(-1) (LoadError)

from ./tkballoonhelp.rb:13

Perhaps, you have to set RUBY_TCL_DLL and RUBY_TK_DLL
environment variables properly. Set them to actual tcl/tk
shared library pathes.
