Subject: [9fans] ape compiler error, IND CHAR and INT
Date: Wed, 18 Jan 2012 10:37:23 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAL4LZyjWRc0MtE5bGV35c18_JV8PjAaWUMpP1gZbdcYa26pX8A@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I figured I'd try building Python from the source on their website
just for kicks. Configure went ok, but when I went to run "make", it
soon bailed out with this error:

cc -c -OPT:Olimit=0 -g -DNDEBUG -O  -I. -IInclude -I./Include
-DPy_BUILD_CORE -o Parser/grammar.o Parser/grammar.c
cc: flag -P ignored
cc: flag -: ignored
cc: can't find library for -l
/usr/john/Python-2.7.2/Parser/grammar.c:46[stdin:12906] incompatible
types: "IND CHAR" and "INT" for op "AS"
/usr/john/Python-2.7.2/Parser/grammar.c:108[stdin:12968] incompatible
types: "IND CHAR" and "INT" for op "AS"
cc: cpp: 8c 896765: error
*** Error code 1
#

The offending lines are these:

    d->d_name = strdup(name);
and
    lb->lb_str = strdup(str);

d_name and lb_str are both defined as char*, and strdup is supposed to
return a char*. However, if I'm reading that error message correctly,
it thinks strdup is trying to return a char*. Does anyone recognize
what's going on?

Thanks



John
