Building Mozilla LDAP SDK

[Steve_The_King]

I am trying to build mozilla LDAP SDK on hp-ux 11.11. I am getting the following errors:

Can anybody help ?

Hi:

You need the Ansi C compiler. You have only the bundled C one which is virtually useless. You can license a version here:

http://h20392.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=B9007AA

An evaluation copy is also available here:

http://h20392.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=B9007AAEVAL

Regards!

I tried accessing the link provided for evaluation copy of cc compiler but the instaaltion instructions say that we need to have a 26-digit hexadecimal license key. I did not find this key anywhere. Please help.

I encounterd the following problem while building mozilla ldap sdk. Can someone please let me know how to go about it ?

cc: "/scratch//LDAP_SDK5_Source/mozilla/nsprpub/pr/include/prlock.h", line 80: warning 870: __declspec() ignored if -Bhidden/-Bhidden_def not used.

>I encountered the following problem while building mozilla ldap sdk.

You need to provide what was on line 91. There also may be evil macros that change what you see in your .h. So you need to compile with -E and save stdout. Then see if you can find that same line and see where export comes from.

If it still isn't obvious, you need a bigger gun:
cc ... -E -Wp,-C,-G
Then save stdout and look for export.

[Steve_The_King]

Line 91 conatins
NSPR_API(void) PR_DestroyLock(PRLock *lock);

Also I am getting the same problem for other files.For eg
/scratch/LDAP_SDK5_Source/mozilla/nsprpub/pr/include/pratom.h
line 57: error 1000: Unexpected symbol: "export"

where line 57 is :-

NSPR_API(PRInt32) PR_AtomicIncrement(PRInt32 *val);



The same error continues for many other files.

[Dennis Handly]

>Line 91 contains:
NSPR_API(void) PR_DestroyLock(PRLock *lock);

Then there must be evil macros on that line. As I said:
If it still isn't obvious, you need a bigger gun: cc ... -E -Wp,-C,-G
Then save stdout and look for export.

[Steve_The_King]

Following is the stdout with -E option and I can see export keyword here.

I am sorry but I din't still din't understand how to solve it. :-(


# 45 "/scratch/LDAP_SDK5_Source/mozilla/nsprpub/pr/include/pratom.h"


# 57
extern __declspec(export) PRInt32 PR_AtomicIncrement(PRInt32 *val);
# 68
extern __declspec(export) PRInt32 PR_AtomicDecrement(PRInt32 *val);
# 80
extern __declspec(export) PRInt32 PR_AtomicSet(PRInt32 *val, PRInt32 newval);
# 92
extern __declspec(export) PRInt32 PR_AtomicAdd(PRInt32 *ptr, PRInt32 val);

[Dennis Handly]

As I said:
If it still isn't obvious, you need a bigger gun: cc ... -E -Wp,-C,-G
Then save stdout and look for export.

With -G, cpp enables an obsolete static analysis for macros. By looking at that line you should see the macro and the macro expansion. Probably NSPR_API.

Your original message had prlock.h but this one has pratom.h?
