Re: Bash cannot compile on HPUX 11.11

[Vinnie Lima]

Hi chet,

Thanks for the reply. I attempted the
following fix and the config-bot.h looks like the following


<--snip-->
/* Make sure MB_LEN_MAX is at least
16 (some systems define
   MB_LEN_MAX as 1) */
#ifdef HANDLE_MULTIBYTE
#  include <limits.h>
#  if defined(MB_LEN_MAX) &&
(MB_LEN_MAX < 16)
#    undef MB_LEN_MAX
#  endif
#  if !defined (MB_LEN_MAX)
#    define MB_LEN_MAX 16
#  endif
# undef HANDLE_MULTIBYTE
#endif

/************************************************/
/* end of multibyte capability checks
for I18N  */
/************************************************/

<---snip--->


I also attempted moving the "#undef"
statement to be the last line of the file, but I am still encountering
the error reports.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Vinnie Lima

HPUX doesn't have enough support for multibyte characters -- it has some,
but not all.  You can add `#undef HANDLE_MULTIBYTE' at the end of
config-bot.h to solve this problem.

The check for necessary multibyte character support will be more extensive
in the next release.
