Re: problems during compilation on SCO OpenServer 5.0.5

[Daniel Diaz]

Hello,

It seems the assembler does not like produced assembly language. gplc calls 
'as' to compile produced asm files. If you have gas (GNU as) you could try to 
use it instead (create a link from gas to as and be sure that gas is called 
when you invoke as - check it with as -v).

If you dont have gas you can try to compile using gcc as follows:

cd .../src
. SETVARS (under bash or source CSHSETVARS under csh)
cd BipsPl
gplc -S foreign.wam

this produces foreign.s the assembly file to compile, then
gcc -v -c foreign.s

if this is OK you will see the command-line invoked by gcc (-v option) and 
this will inform you about which assembler to use. If this is not OK then the 
assembly file generated is not correct for your machine. I can help you to 
patch this if wanted.
