ID: 42195 Updated by: jani@php.net Reported By: jeremy dot jacque at maximo dot fr -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: *Configuration Issues Operating System: AIX 5.1 PHP Version: 5CVS-2007-08-03 (CVS) New Comment: How exactly did you run configure? Any CFLAGS/LDFLAGS set? What shell? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-03 08:56:50] jeremy dot jacque at maximo dot fr Description: ------------ when running configure and entering the "Configuring libtool" part, an error occured because i do not have access to an c++ compiler. By just suppressing the lines referring to c++, it works great, so the c++ search in configure shouldn't just be optional ?? One more thing, i'm compiling using the native AIX compiler and linker, and in order to link correctly i use the cheat i saw in bug report 39187 (change sed 's/\([A-Za-z0-9_]*\)\.lo/\1.o/g' by sed 's/\([A-Za-z0-9_]*\)\.lo/.libs\/\1.o/g' in the BUILD_CLI part of the configure. When compiling proftpd on the same machine, their configure report this: "checking for objdir... .libs" Sould it be possible to integrate such a test in your script? Thank in advance. Jeremy Jacque Reproduce code: --------------- run configure on a machine with no c++ compiler Expected result: ---------------- Pass the c++ test with no error (may be a warning ?? ) checking for g++... no checking for c++... no checking whether we are using the GNU C++ compiler... no Actual result: -------------- checking for c++... no checking for g++... no checking for gcc... no checking for CC... no checking for cxx... no checking for cc++... no checking for cl... no checking whether the C++ compiler (gcc ) works... no configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C++ compiler cannot create executables. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=42195&edit=1
