error #2266: "input_iterator_tag with aCC 6.15

[Neel2]

Hi,

We are trying to port our product from aCC 3.57 to 6.15 on HP-UX B.11.23 U ia64, and we stuck up with the following errors:

Also, can anyone point me to the documentation which will guide us how to port application from aCC 3.57 to 6.15(or any latest compiler version), and what all flags need to add/delete for succesfull compilation with latest compiler version on HP-UX aCC 6.15.

thanks,
Neel

[Dennis Handly]

You need to remove your use of the foreign devil STL ospace. There is a conflict between the input_iterator_tag in the global? namespace and the official one in std.

You should also remove +DA1.1 +DS2.0.
Remove -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE and replace by -mt.

I see you have already noticed a similar issue in this thread:

Without a .i file created from -E -.i, I can't help.

Please find attached .i file.

>The following cmd line thru which its been generated.

You are mixing RW's STL with your ospace STL.
You can only have one or the other but not both.

Why aren't you using the HP supplied C++ Standard Library?

If this worked on PA, it was only because the default is -AP there. On IPF, the default is almost -AA.

You could try compiling with -AP??

[Neel2]

Hi Dennis,

It works, thanks. Could you please tell me the significance of "-AP" flag, or a weblink will do.

And now i stuck up with following errors like:

Ok, nice i have found a link, which describe about "-AA" & "-AP" flag at:http://docs.hp.com/en/10946/faq.htm

[Dennis Handly]

vslclk.c: error #2131: expression must have pointer-to-class type

You haven't declared vs_dateTimeRec so dtStruct isn't of the right type.

vsl.h: error #2077-D: this declaration has no storage class or type specifier

This isn't in the .i file. In fact, since there aren't 10000s of lines there, your attached .i file is suspect. (Only 4666 bytes.) You may have to gzip it if very big.

[Neel2]

ok, after digging, i found the location in source code from where i am getting the first error:

"../h/vsl.h", line 1524: error #2077-D: this declaration has no storage class or
type specifier

The snippet of .h is:

Hence, I am getting an error #2077 "ERROR_MACHINE_IS_UNKNOWN", could you please suggest what needs to modify/add to use shared memory (which macro need to defined )?

[Dennis Handly]

vsl.h: error #2077-D: this declaration has no storage class or type specifier
ERROR_MACHINE_IS_UNKNOWN

This seems broken. Why not use: #error "This machine doesn't have #if set correctly"

>could you please suggest what needs to modify/add to use shared memory (which macro need to defined)?

You probably could get away with using __hp9000s800_shm.

You should probably find where __hp9000s800_shm is set and add some code there that also checks __ia64.

[Neel2]

yes, your are absolutely correct. I need to put a check for __ia64. And it goes ahead.
but it does not make .o file. it gives the following error:

Most likely you don't have write permission to the file or directory. Or execute/read permission to any of the directory paths.

[Neel2]

clean build works. In addition just want to know, why i am getting assembler messages with new 06.15 version, the same file was compiled smoothly without any error with older 03.57 version.

The error is:

>why i am getting assembler messages with new A.06.15 version

You are invoking the assembler, nothing to do with the compiler. You need to ask about the assembler.

But the real reason, PA-RISC != IPF.
Your assembly file must be completely rewritten for the new architecture!

You should take advantage of aCC's inline assembly with real atomic instructions:
http://h21007.www2.hp.com/portal/site/dspp/menuitem.863c3e4cbcdc3f3515b49c108973a801/?ciid=4308e2f5bde02110e2f5bde02110275d6e10RCRD

[Neel2]

First of all, I am newbee and do now know the meaning of PA & IPF.

On my Hp-UX machine uname -a shows:
HP-UX B.11.23 U ia64 2917453674

So, it is IPF architecture?

And, Do i need to rewrite the complete assembly file for the above architecture? Is there any whay to port the same file, w/o rewriting?

Thanks,
Neel

[Neel2]

Hi Dennis,

Sorry, for asking stupid questions. I got a nice pdf which describe about IPF and all.

http://h50236.www5.hp.com/solutions/copartner/IA64/reference/Porting_Tuning/itanium_wp_final.pdf

Now, i want help, regarding the above attached assembly file, can you give me some clue how should i start rewriting the same file for IPF?

Thanks,
Neel

[Dennis Handly]

>Do i need to rewrite the complete assembly file for the above architecture?
>can you give me some clue how should i start rewriting the same file for IPF?

Everything in the file is useless except for the comments.
As I mentioned with the above link, you should toss your assembly file and write it in C or C++.
You should also consider not using your current atomic primitive.

#include
// Sets lock to 0
// Returns:
// 0 If "lock" is available
// nonzero If "lock" is busy
int mchtsl(int *p) {
return (int)_Asm_xchg(_SZ_W, p, 0ULL, _LDHINT_NONE);
}

[Neel2]

ok, thanks. now my mchtsl.c file contains:

#include
/* Sets lock to 0
* Returns:
* 0 If "lock" is available
* nonzero If "lock" is busy
*/
int mchtsl(int *p) {
return (int)_Asm_xchg(_SZ_W, p, 0ULL, _LDHINT_NONE);
}

And its succesfully compile with aCC 06.15.
so i have changed the earlier assembly file to .c file and put the above function, thats all need to be change right? OR do i need to take care of anything more in order to replace earlier assembly file? Could you please have a look and let me know.

Thanks,
Neel

return (int)_Asm_xchg(_SZ_W, p, 0ULL, _LDHINT_NONE);

And its succesfully compile with aCC 06.15.
so i have changed the earlier assembly .s file to .c file and put the above function, thats all need to be change, right? OR do i need to take care of anything more in order to replace earlier assembly file? Could you please have a look and let me know incase if am doing something wrong.

[Dennis Handly]

>now my mchtsl.c file contains:
>* Returns:

This should really say: Returns old value of lock

>OR do I need to take care of anything more in order to replace earlier assembly file?

Well, there was some silly stuff in the .s file:
The subI instruction toggles the return value 0 <-> 1 so that it will match the SUN mchtsl return value.

If you need that, you need to have:
return 1 - (int)_Asm_xchg(_SZ_W, p, 0ULL, _LDHINT_NONE);

Where is your code to unlock the lock?

[Neel2]

Ok, thanks for your input. I will confirm and let you know.

Thanks for your help.

[Neel2]

Hi,

Please correct me if am wrong:

$uname -a
HP-UX B.11.23 U ia64 2917453674

if uname -a returns the above o/p then can I set ARCHITECTURE=HP_IA64

And
$uname -a
HP-UX B.11.11 U 9000/800 109092009

returns the above o/p then can i set ARCHITECTURE=PA_RISC

Also, want to confirm that HP_IA64 is correct
or do i need to use something else?

Thanks,
Neel

[Dennis Handly]

>HP-UX B.11.23 U ia64
>if uname -a returns the above o/p then can I set ARCHITECTURE=HP_IA64

I have no idea about ARCHITECTURE. But __ia64 is set.

>HP-UX B.11.11 U 9000/800
>returns the above o/p then can i set ARCHITECTURE=PA_RISC

Here __hppa is set.

[Neel2]

Ok,

Thanks for your response.

Hi,

Now, it does resolved the issue, but could you please let me know significance of
using "-a, archive_shared" flags.

And, do i need to change my old flags OR the above error can be resolve changing shlib_path or any other way?

please suggest?
