Re: gcc2-2.95.3-7 uploaded

Unfortunately, that didn't work either. So there's some problem with the C++ headers and 'g++-2 -mno-cygwin'

Ok, looks like I really did need that /usr/include/mingw/_G_config.h file.
The problem is that if I include it here for the gcc-2 compilations, it conflicts
with the version that is used in gcc 3.

Ooo.  Not good.


This was one of those "Meant to get around to it" problems.  I shouldn't even
have released either gcc package without fixing this one.  Sigh.

Hey, this is what *test* releases are FOR.

(*) first off, that *can't* be right, can it? shouldn't the C++ headers be installed in /usr/include/g++-v3/, not /usr/include/c++/3.1.1/ ?

Right this is the problem that I mentioned on Monday:

*>I don't see exactly the same errors.  I can't even compile your stuff

*>AFAICT.

Oh - I saw "version-specific-runtime-LIBS" and didn't make the connection to header files. Duh.

I can fix the gcc 3 problem.  I am not sure to fix the gcc-2 problem.

*pause*

No, wait.  I think I can fix this by copying the entire g++-3 directory
into /usr/include/mingw and putting a _G_config.h there.  It isn't
pretty, but it should work ok.

Oh well, powers of two are always lucky.  Here comes gcc2-2.95.3-8.

Fingers crossed.

BTW, was I correct about the C++ ABI? Currently, the only DLL with true C++ exports(*) is libncurses6++; will that be usable with gcc-3.1.1, or will I need to release a new version?

(*) cygwin itself is the only other C++ DLL -- but all of its exports are non-mangled...
