RE: [ECOS] Building Insight-5.0 for an x86 target under Cygwin

Look at the code where the error occurs and you should be able to fix it
easily.  Delete the two #ifdef and matching #endif.  It was a quick fix
for me :)

HI

Ok, a couple of changes since the error last night ....

I get this error when I try to build gcc for ECOS on Cygwin ...
________________________________________________________________________
gcc -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -g -O2 -I. 
-I/c/ECOS/src/gcc/gcc-2.95.2/libiberty/../include  
/c/ECOS/src/gcc/gcc-2.95.2/libiberty/strerror.c
/c/ECOS/src/gcc/gcc-2.95.2/libiberty/strerror.c:461: conflicting types
for 
`sys_errlist'
/usr/include/sys/errno.h:23: previous declaration of `sys_errlist'
make[1]: *** [strerror.o] Error 1

make: *** [all-libiberty] Error 2

________________________________________________________________________

Initially, I had a similar problem building binutils-2.10.1. I noticed
that 
there were sources for binutils-20011002-1 in my cygwin download ...so I

used it and the problem went away.

I have

$ uname -r
1.3.3(0.46/3/2)

$ gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.3-5/specs
gcc version 2.95.3-5 (cygwin special)

I also have gcc-2.95.3-5 sources ... I'd expect that
/usr/include/sys/errno.h would not conflict when building gcc 2.95.3-5 ,

right ?

Since the RedHat website suggests application of an ECOS specific patch
for 
gcc-2.95.2, I'm not sure how to so something similar for the above error
and 
compile gcc ....

Any suggestions ?

Ram
